Decode and represent image data, including bounded PNG, JPEG, WebP, and SVG paths.

```yh
external thing graphicsImageByteSource
```

- bool ready: Stores ready as bool.
- text contentIdentity: Stores content identity as text.
- text format: Stores format as text.
- text originKind: Stores origin kind as text.
- text locator: Stores locator as text.
- int sizeBytes: Stores size bytes as int.
- int byteLimit: Stores byte limit as int.
- text payloadHex: Stores payload hex as text.
- text diagnostic: Stores diagnostic as text.
- text source: Stores source as text.
- graphicsImageByteSource(bool ready, text contentIdentity, text format, text originKind, text locator, int sizeBytes, int byteLimit, text payloadHex, text diagnostic, text source): Graphics image byte source.
- Describe() returns text: Describe.

## Use graphicsImageByteSource

A complete small caller. Values are illustrative; check the returned result and package requirements before connecting live resources.

Verification: type checked

```yh
using graphics.image

// Decode and represent image data, including bounded PNG, JPEG, WebP, and SVG paths.
graphicsImageByteSource sample = graphicsImageByteSource(true, "sample", "png", "origin Kind", "locator", 4, 1, "payload Hex", "diagnostic", "example")
Console.Log(Text.From(sample.ready))

```

Save this beside start.yh as project.mech:

```toml
manifestVersion = "2"
package = "api.example.graphics_image__graphicsimagebytesource"
version = "0.1.0"
languageEdition = "yeho-core-2026.1"

[app]
kind = "headless"

[[dependencies]]
package = "graphics.image"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/graphics/image"

```

Extract the example archive beside the yeho and dolphin checkouts. This example requires those source dependencies and a current developer compiler.

```sh
./yeho/build/dolphin-metal/yehoc ./api-examples/graphics.image--graphicsImageByteSource/usage --backend cpu-oracle -o /tmp/yeho-example
/tmp/yeho-example
```


## graphicsImageByteSource.Describe

A complete caller for this public method. Sample inputs are illustrative; native resources require their owning lifecycle.

Verification: type checked

```yh
using graphics.image

// Describe.
graphicsImageByteSource instance = graphicsImageByteSource(true, "sample", "png", "origin Kind", "locator", 4, 1, "payload Hex", "diagnostic", "example")
text result = instance.Describe()
Console.Log(Text.From(result))

```

Save this beside start.yh as project.mech:

```toml
manifestVersion = "2"
package = "api.example.graphics_image__graphicsimagebytesource"
version = "0.1.0"
languageEdition = "yeho-core-2026.1"

[app]
kind = "headless"

[[dependencies]]
package = "graphics.image"
version = "0.1.0"
path = "../../../yeho/packages/graphics/image"

```

Extract the example archive beside the yeho and dolphin checkouts. This example requires those source dependencies and a current developer compiler.

```sh
./yeho/build/dolphin-metal/yehoc ./api-examples/graphics.image--graphicsImageByteSource/method-Describe-11 --backend cpu-oracle -o /tmp/yeho-example
/tmp/yeho-example
```


Package presence and a declaration do not establish support on every host. Host services need their platform and lifecycle setup.
