With pixelsort somewhere on your path,

pixelsort --file /path/to/image.jpg -r -g -b

will sort the rows of pixels of image.jpg by red, green, blue, respectively, for example, and save the resulting images in the same location as the original (filename being sorted-r-image.jpg, etc.). Applying the --unbroken flag will treat the image as one row instead of contigious rows.

examples

pixelsort -H --chunks 1 --file repo_assets/orig.jpg
