SkImage related constants are defined by enum, enum class, #define, const, and constexpr.
SkImage typedef define a data type.
Image describes a two dimensional array of pixels to draw. The pixels may be decoded in a Raster Bitmap, encoded in a Picture or compressed data stream, or located in GPU memory as a GPU Texture.
Image cannot be modified after it is created. Image may allocate additional storage as needed; for instance, an encoded Image may decode when drawn.
Image width and height are greater than zero. Creating an Image with zero width or height returns Image equal to nullptr.
Image may be created from Bitmap, Pixmap, Surface, Picture, encoded streams, GPU Texture, YUV ColorSpace data, or hardware buffer. Encoded streams supported include BMP, GIF, HEIF, ICO, JPEG, PNG, WBMP, WebP. Supported encoding details vary with platform.
Raster Image pixels are decoded in a Raster Bitmap. These pixels may be read directly and in most cases written to, although edited pixels may not be drawn if Image has been copied internally.
Texture Image are located on GPU and pixels are not accessible. Texture Image are allocated optimally for best performance. Raster Image may be drawn to GPU Surface, but pixels are uploaded from CPU to GPU downgrading performance.
Lazy Image defer allocating buffer for Image pixels and decoding stream until Image is drawn. Lazy Image caches result if possible to speed up repeated drawing.
SkImage global, struct, and class related member functions share a topic.
SkImage can be constructed or initialized by these functions, including C++ class constructors.
SkImage member functions read and modify the structure properties.

CachingHint selects whether Skia may internally cache Bitmaps generated by decoding Image, or by copying Image from GPU to CPU. The default behavior allows caching Bitmaps.
Choose kDisallow CachingHint if Image pixels are to be used only once, or if Image pixels reside in a cache outside of Skia, or to reduce memory pressure.
Choosing kAllow CachingHint does not ensure that pixels will be cached. Image pixels may not be cached if memory requirements are too large or pixels are not accessible.

If Image Color Type is kGray_8_SkColorType, dst.colorSpace must match. If Image Alpha Type is kOpaque_SkAlphaType, dst.alphaType must match. If Image Color Space is nullptr, dst.colorSpace must match. Returns false if pixel conversion is not possible.
Scales the image, with filterQuality, to match dst.width and dst.height. filterQuality kNone_SkFilterQuality is fastest, typically implemented with Filter Quality Nearest Neighbor. kLow_SkFilterQuality is typically implemented with Filter Quality Bilerp. kMedium_SkFilterQuality is typically implemented with Filter Quality Bilerp, and Filter Quality MipMap when size is reduced. kHigh_SkFilterQuality is slowest, typically implemented with Filter Quality BiCubic.

SkCanvas::drawImage[2] readPixels[2] SkPixmap::scalePixels
Encodes Image pixels, returning result as SkData.
Returns nullptr if encoding fails, or if encodedImageFormat is not supported.
Image encoding in a format requires both building with one or more of: SK_HAS_JPEG_LIBRARY, SK_HAS_PNG_LIBRARY, SK_HAS_WEBP_LIBRARY; and platform support for the encoded format.
If SK_BUILD_FOR_MAC or SK_BUILD_FOR_IOS is defined, encodedImageFormat can additionally be one of: SkEncodedImageFormat::kICO, SkEncodedImageFormat::kBMP, SkEncodedImageFormat::kGIF.
quality is a platform and format specific metric trading off size and encoding error. When used, quality equaling 100 encodes with the least error. quality may be ignored by the encoder.
encoded Image, or nullptr
refEncodedData MakeFromEncoded
Encodes Image pixels, returning result as SkData. Returns existing encoded data if present; otherwise, Image is encoded with SkEncodedImageFormat::kPNG. Skia must be built with SK_HAS_PNG_LIBRARY to encode Image.
Returns nullptr if existing encoded data is missing or invalid, and encoding fails.
encoded Image, or nullptr
refEncodedData MakeFromEncoded
Returns encoded Image pixels as SkData, if Image was created from supported encoded stream format. Platform support for formats vary and may require building with one or more of: SK_HAS_JPEG_LIBRARY, SK_HAS_PNG_LIBRARY, SK_HAS_WEBP_LIBRARY.
Returns nullptr if Image contents are not encoded.

encodeToData[2] MakeFromEncoded
Returns subset of Image. subset must be fully contained by Image dimensions. The implementation may share pixels, or may copy them.

The returned Image respects mipMapped setting; if mipMapped equals GrMipMapped::kYes, the backing texture allocates Mip Map levels. Returns original Image if context and dstColorSpace match and mipMapped is compatible with backing GPU Texture.
Returns nullptr if context is nullptr, or if Image was created with another GrContext.
created Image, or nullptr

Returns nullptr if copy, decode, or pixel read fails.
Raster Image, or nullptr
isTextureBacked isLazyGenerated MakeFromRaster
Creates filtered Image. filter processes original Image, potentially changing color, position, and size. subset is the bounds of original Image processed by filter. clipBounds is the expected bounds of the filtered Image. outSubset is required storage for the actual bounds of the filtered Image. offset is required storage for translation of returned Image.
Returns nullptr if Image could not be created. If nullptr is returned, outSubset and offset are undefined.
Useful for animation of SkImageFilter that varies size from frame to frame. Returned Image is created larger than required by filter so that GPU Texture can be reused with different sized effects. outSubset describes the valid bounds of GPU Texture returned. offset translates the returned Image to keep subsequent animation frames aligned with respect to each other.
filtered Image, or nullptr
makeShader[2] SkPaint::setImageFilter
BackendTextureReleaseProc
Defines a callback function, taking one parameter of type GrBackendTexture with no return value. Function is called when back-end texture is to be released.
Creates a GrBackendTexture from the provided SkImage. Returns true and stores result in backendTexture and backendTextureReleaseProc if texture is created; otherwise, returns false and leaves backendTexture and backendTextureReleaseProc unmodified.
Call backendTextureReleaseProc after deleting backendTexture. backendTextureReleaseProc cleans up auxiliary data related to returned backendTexture. The caller must delete returned backendTexture after use.
If Image is both texture backed and singly referenced, image is returned in backendTexture without conversion or making a copy. Image is singly referenced if its was transferred solely using std::move().
If Image is not texture backed, returns texture with Image contents.
true if back-end texture was created
MakeFromTexture[2] makeTextureImage

SkTransferFunctionBehavior is to be deprecated.
Set premulBehavior to SkTransferFunctionBehavior::kRespect to convert Image pixels to a linear space, before converting to destination Color Type and Color Space.
Set premulBehavior to SkTransferFunctionBehavior::kIgnore to treat Image pixels as linear, when converting to destination Color Type and Color Space, ignoring pixel encoding.
