writeRGB

lsst.afw.display.writeRGB(fileName, rgbImage)

Write an RGB image to disk

Parameters
fileNamestr

The output file. The suffix defines the format, and must be supported by matplotlib

Most versions of matplotlib support png and pdf (although the eps/pdf/svg writers may be buggy, possibly due an interaction with useTeX=True in the matplotlib settings).

If your matplotlib bundles pil/pillow you should also be able to write jpeg and tiff files.

rgbImage

The image, as made by e.g. makeRGB
