Download the PHP package thapp/jitimage without Composer

jitimage ========

Just In Time image manipulation with integration for Laravel 4, supports GD, ImageMagick, and Imagick.

Installation

Add thapp/jitimage as a requirement to composer.json:

Then run composer update or composer install

Next step is to tell laravel to load the service provider. In app/config/app.php add

to the providers array and add JitImage to the alias array:

Publish configuration

Configuration

route (string)

The base route for dynamic image processing

base (string)

The filesystem base path to where your images are stored.

driver (string)

The processing driver. Available drivers are im, gd and ìmagick

cache.route (string)

The base route for retrieving images by their cache id

cache.path (string)

Cache directory

cache.environments (array)

An array of environments were imagecache should be enabled

cache.prefix (string)

Name prefix for cached images

quality (string)

compression quality, 0 - 100 (higher is better but also larger)

imagemagick (array)

This array takes two values: path, the path to the imagick binary, and bin, the binary name.
Typically the binary name is convert.

filter (array)

An array of available filter that should be enabled by default

recipes (array)

An array of predefined parameters that are aliased to a route, e.g.

would create a route 'thumbs' that could be called like http://example.com/thumbs/path/to/my/image.jpg.
Defining recipes will disable dynamic image processing.

response-type (string)

You can choose generic or xsend.

Note: your server must be capable to handle x-send headers when using the xsend response type.

trusted-sites (array)

A list of trusted sites that deliver assets, e.g.

or as a regexp

Image Processors

GD

GD is the standard php image processing library. Choose gd if you have either no access to imagemagick or to the imagick php extension.

There're a few downsides when using gd though, e.g. color profiles are not preserved, there's no support for preserving image sequences when processing an animated gif file. It also has a larger memory footprint so can become impossible in some cases (memory limitations on shared hosting platforms, etc.).

ImageMagick

Imagemagick is an incredible fast and versatile image processing library. Choose im in your config.php, if you have access to the convert binary.

For further information on imagemagick please visit the official website

Imagick

Imagick is imagemagick OOP for php. Choose imagick if you have the imagick extensions installed but no access to the imagemagick binary.

Usage

Dynamic image processing

A word of warning: Dynamic image processing can harm you system and should be disabled in production.

Anatomy of an image uri:

{base}/{parameter}/{imagesource}/filter:{filter}

Parameter consists of one to five components, mode, width, height, gravity (crop position), and background

An Image url my look like this: http://exmaple.com/images/2/200/200/5/path/to/my/image.jpg To apply additional filters, the filter url segment is appended. The filter segments starts with filter: followed by the filter alias and the filter options. Filters are separated by a double colon :, filter parameter are separated by a semicolon ;, eg filter:gs;s=100;c=1:circ;o=12.

Examples

Example URLs (assuming you have set route to 'images' and your images are stored in public/uploads/images.

resizing
Proportionally resize an image to 200px width:

http://example.com/images/1/200/0/uploads/images/image.jpg

Resize an image to 200 * 200 px, ignoring its aspect ratio :

http://example.com/images/1/200/200/uploads/images/image.jpg

Proportionally resize an image to best fit 400 * 280 px:

http://example.com/images/4/400/280/uploads/images/image.jpg

Scale an image down to 50%:

http://example.com/images/5/50/uploads/images/image.jpg

Limit to 200.000px pixel:

http://example.com/images/6/200000/uploads/images/image.jpg

cropping
Proportionally crop and resize an image to 200px * 200px with a gravity of 5 (center):

http://example.com/images/2/200/200/5/uploads/images/image.jpg

Predefined image processing

(will disable dynamic processing)

You can alias your image processing with predefined recipes.

Examples

Map mode 2 crop rescale, with a 200x200 px crop and a grey scale filter to http://example.com/thumbs/uploads/images/image.jpg:

Map mode 1 resize, with a resize of 800px width and a greyscale filter to http://example.com/gellery/uploads/images/image.jpg:

Map mode 4 best fit, with a resize of max 800px width and 600px height, to http://example.com/preview/uploads/images/image.jpg:

Modes

mode 0
Pass through, no processing.

mode 1 < width/height >
Resizes the image with the given width and height values and ignores aspect ratio unless one of the values is zero.

mode 2 < width/height/gravity >
Resize the image to fit within the cropping boundaries defined in width and height.

Gravity explained:

mode 3 < width/height/gravity/[color] >
Crops the image with cropping boundaries defined in width and height. Will create a frame if the image is smaller than the cropping area.

mode 4 < width/height >
Best fit within the given bounds.

mode 5 < percentage >
Percrentual scale.

mode 6 < pixelcount >
Pixel limit.

Converting image formats (since v0.1.4)

You may utilize the Convert filter (conv) to convert an image to a different file format.

As uri:

The JitImage class also provides some shortcut methods for this: toJpeg, toPng, and toGif

Filters

JitImage comes with 4 predfined filters, GreyScale, Cirlce, Overlay, Colorize, and Convert (since v0.1.3):

(Note: since v0.1.4. calling invalid arguments on a filter will throw an \InvalidArgumentException)

GreyScale

Circle

Overlay

Colorize

Convert

The facade class

This is a convenient way to scale images within your blade templates. It will create an imageurl similar to /jit/storage/2egf4gfg/jit_139e2ead8b71b8c7e.jpg

Note: this won't work if both caching and dynamic processing are disabled.
Note: Filters (including the convert shorthands) must be called before any other maipulation method, as resize, scale, etc. will immediately return the computed filesource as string.

Register external filter

You may add your own filter classes to be used with JitImage.

(more to come).

Caching

Artisan commands

There's really just one command right now. php artisan jitimage:clearcache will clear the whole image cache.

Deleting a cached image if its source file got replaced

It is possible to just delete cached images that have been created from a certain source. So lets assume you have to replace an image called myimage.jpg in uploads/images, you could tell the cache class to to remove this specific cache directory.

You may also hoock this up to an upload event

API

API documentation will be updated shortly.
