EasyImage

EasyImage is built on top of ImageMagick, so make sure ImageMagick is installed on your system.

On Ubuntu

$ apt-get install imagemagick

On Mac OS X

$ brew install imagemagick

On CentOS

$ yum install imagemagick

Installation

$ npm install easyimage

Usage

var easyimg = require('easyimage');

EasyImage offers these methods:

easyimg.info(<image_path>, <callback_function>) - to retrieve information about an image (name, type, width, height, size, depth)
easyimg.convert(<options>, <callback_function>) - to convert an image from one format to another
easyimg.resize(<options>, <callback_function>) - to resize an image
easyimg.crop(<options>, <callback_function>) - to crop an image
easyimg.thumbnail(<options>, <callback_function>) - to create square thumbnails
easyimg.rescrop(<options>, <callback_function>) - to resize and crop and image in one go, useful for creating customzied thumbnails
easyimg.exec(<command>, <callback_function>) - when you want to call a custom command to ImageMagick, you will need to take care of escaping special characters etc

The EasyImage options object can have these properties depending on the method. Unrelated options are ignored.

src - path to source image
dst - path to destination image
width - width of resized image
height - height of resized image
cropwidth - width of cropped image, if missing, width will be used instead
cropheight - height of cropped image, if missing, height will be used instead
x - x offset for cropping, defaults to 0
y - y offset for cropping, defaults to 0
quality - quality of processed image, 1 to 100
gravity - crop position [NorthWest | North | NorthEast | West | Center | East | SouthWest | South | SouthEast], defaults to Center
fill - fill area flag, image is resized to completely fill the target crop dimensions, defaults to false

Examples

Example 1

easyimg.info('kitten.jpg', function(err, stdout, stderr) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log(stdout);
});

Example 2

easyimg.rescrop(
  {
     src:'kitten.jpg', dst:'kitten-thumbnail.jpg',
     width:500, height:500,
     cropwidth:128, cropheight:128,
     x:0, y:0
     },
  function(err, image) {
     if (err) throw err;
     console.log('Resized and cropped: ' + image.width + ' x ' + image.height);
  }
);
