# `Source`

class pyvips.vsource.Source(pointer)

  An input connection.

  static new_from_descriptor(descriptor)

    Make a new source from a file descriptor (a small integer).

    Make a new source that is attached to the descriptor. For example:

        source = pyvips.Source.new_from_descriptor(0)

    Makes a descriptor attached to stdin.

    You can pass this source to (for example) `new_from_source()`.

  static new_from_file(filename)

    Make a new source from a filename.

    Make a new source that is attached to the named file. For example:

        source = pyvips.Source.new_from_file("myfile.jpg")

    You can pass this source to (for example) `new_from_source()`.

  static new_from_memory(data)

    Make a new source from a memory object.

    Make a new source that is attached to the memory object. For example:

        source = pyvips.Source.new_from_memory("myfile.jpg")

    You can pass this source to (for example) `new_from_source()`.

    The memory object can be anything that supports the Python buffer or memoryview protocol.
