# Image2Pixel API

> Kino-convert ang mga larawan sa malinis na pixel art na may limitasyon sa palette, pagtukoy ng scale, at opsyonal na transparent na background

Ginagawang pixel art ang input na larawan at ibinabalik ang naprosesong larawan kasama ang scaled na bersyon bilang PNG files. Maaari mong limitahan ang palette gamit ang `max_colors` (1 hanggang 256), magbigay ng `fixed_palette` ng mga hex color, o pilitin ang `scale` mula 1 hanggang 64. May iba't ibang paraan ng downscale, opsyon sa cleanup, at mode ng pag-alis ng background. Iniuulat din ng response ang bilang ng mga kulay, palette, at natukoy na pixel scale.

- Model id: `image2pixel`
- Made by: Utility
- Category: Image Editing
- Output: image
- Charged by usage (up to $0.153 per run, typical $0.002; the rest of the hold is refunded): $0.00017 / second of processing time (cheapest run $0.002 (2 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/run/image2pixel`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/quote/image2pixel`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/fil/developers/models/image2pixel

## Pricing

Price: **$0.00017 / second of processing time**. Charged by actual usage at $0.00017 / second of processing time: up to $0.153 per run (the quote gives the maximum for your input), the rest is refunded automatically after the run. A typical run costs $0.002.

The full example input below holds up to $0.153 = 153 API credits (up to 900 s of processing time × $0.00017) when it starts; a typical run costs $0.002 (2 API credits).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). This model is charged by usage: `POST https://api.doitong.ru/v1/quote/image2pixel` with the same JSON body returns the most the run can cost for that input (`credits`, debited when the run starts); after the run you pay the usage the model reports and the rest is refunded automatically. An input whose maximum would exceed the per-run limit is refused with 422. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL ng source na larawan para gawing pinahusay na pixel art. |
| `max_colors` |  | integer \| null | no | `32` | 1 – 256 | Limitasyon sa dami ng kulay ng output palette; pinapahintulutan ng None ang walang limitasyong bilang ng mga kulay. |
| `auto_color_detect` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Pinapagana ang awtomatikong pagpili ng pinakamainam na dami ng kulay. |
| `fixed_palette` |  | array of string \| null | no |  |  | Opsyonal na paunang itinakdang palette na tinukoy gamit ang mga hex string, gaya ng ['#000000', '#ffffff']. |

| `cleanup_morph` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Pag-alis ng ingay gamit ang mga morphological operation. |
| `cleanup_jaggy` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Paglilinis ng jagged edges sa pamamagitan ng pag-alis ng hiwa-hiwalay na diagonal pixel. |

| `alpha_threshold` |  | integer | no | `128` | 0 – 255 | Threshold para sa pagba-binarize ng alpha, mula 0 hanggang 255. |
| `dominant_color_threshold` |  | number | no | `0.05` | 0 – 1 | Threshold para sa dominanteng mga kulay, mula 0.0 hanggang 1.0. |
| `background_tolerance` |  | integer | no | `0` | 0 – 255 | Tolerance para sa background, mula 0 hanggang 255. |
| `background_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `corners` | `edges`, `corners`, `midpoints` | Mga panimulang lokasyon para sa flood-fill habang inaalis ang background. |

File parameters (`image`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json

  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.ru/v1/run/image2pixel?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.ru/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.ru/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/image2pixel?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.ru/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/image2pixel", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.ru/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "image2pixel",
      "input": {
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.jpg"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
