I got an issue while working with ImageMagick in my node application I did the search but can't get the proper solution for my problem.

Answer 1

Edit: ufraw is no longer maintained, so use at your own risk and see dcraw alternative lower down.

You need to install 'ufraw-batch'

sudo apt-get install ufraw-batch

If this does not work, as it did for me. I got a "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" This seems to be common problem with ufraw: https://sourceforge.net/p/ufraw/bugs/ It does not seem to get update much anymore, at least not in the main repos.

Converting RAW image into other types of image you can use DCRaw (it is also used by UFRaw). Here is an example to convert a .cr2 image to a .png:

dcraw -c -w "./IMG_1.CR2" | pnmtopng > "./IMG_1.png";

Answer 2

Macos:

brew install ufraw

Solved it for me
