Bash script to convert to images to webp, intended for Automator, right-click Service

convertToWebp.sh

source ~/.bash_profile

# assumes you have cwebp installed
# https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/download
# Typing `cwebp` into terminal should result in anything but Command not found.
# Gist by Jimmy Chion

# shell script intended to be used in Mac Automator,
# so you can right-click on a file and convert the file(s) to webp

# In Automator, create a new `Service`,
# drag and drop a `Run Shell Script` and copy paste this gist
# Set top settings to `Service receives selected [image files] in [Finder.app]`
# Shell: [/bin/bash] (You can type `echo $SHELL` in Terminal to see what shell you're running)
# Pass input [as arguments]
# Save as... "Convert to Webp" (or whatever you want it to be called in your right-click menu)

for FILE in "$@"
do
	echo "coverting file: $FILE"
	EXT=${FILE##*.} # file extension
	QUALITY=85 # quality for the image
	# convert the image using cwebp and output a file with the extension replaced as .webp
	cwebp -q $QUALITY "$FILE" -o "${FILE/%.$EXT/.webp}" &>/dev/null
done

It works! Thank you for the script.

But whit two changes.

My shell use zsh, so i changed the first line in #! /bin/zsh and Shell: /bin/zsh.
Could don't not find cwebp, so I searched for the correct path, entered it instead of cwebp.

#! /bin/zsh

for FILE in "$@"
do
	echo "coverting file: $FILE"
	EXT=${FILE##*.} # file extension
	QUALITY=100 # quality for the image
	# convert the image using cwebp and output a file with the extension replaced as .webp
	/usr/local/bin/cwebp -q $QUALITY "$FILE" -o "${FILE/%.$EXT/.webp}" &>/dev/null
done

Now it works correctly.
Whit QUALITY=100, the quality of the image in WebP is very good, and the compression is better then online compressor or app like Webp Converter.

It works! Thank you for the script cjimmy and sentimatteo
