ImageManipulationAPI

A Node JS application that exposes APIs that transform uploaded images (crop, rotate, resize) and allow for their download post-transformation

Pre-requisites:

You need to have these installed:

• Git
• Node JS

Get started by:

Perform these steps using your CLI tool:

1. Clone this repository (usually with git clone <REPO_URL>)
2. Install required packages with npm install
3. Start the application with npm start

API endpoints:

The application exposes the APIs:

1. URL: "/upload"

Method: POST

Acceptable Data (Request Body):

• image: This would contain the file data

• crop: e.g { crop: "x=2;y=4;w=3;h=10" }

  x - horizontal distance from origin,

  y - vertical distance from origin,

  w - the width of new image,

  h - the height of new image

• scale: e.g { scale: "f=1.5" }

  f - scale factor

• resize: e.g { resize: "w=3;h=10" }

  w - the width of new image,

  h - the height of new image

• rotate: e.g { rotate: "d=90" }

  d - degrees

• order: e.g { order: "sc;re;ro;cr" }

  sc - scale

  re - resize

  ro - rotate

  cr - crop

  //default order: "re;ro;sc;cr" meaning the worker should first 'resize', then 'rotate', then 'scale' and lastly 'crop' the parsed image.

  Example:

  axios({
      method: 'post',
      url: '/upload',
      data: {
          image: imageFile,
          crop: "x=2;y=4;w=3;h=10",
          scale: "f=1.5",
          resize: "w=3;h=10",
          rotate: "d=90",
          order: "sc;ro;re;cr"
      }
  })
   .then(function (response) {
      //handle success
      console.log(response);
   })
   .catch(function (response) {
      //handle error
      console.log(response);
   });

2. URL: "/export"

Method: GET

Acceptable Data (Request Query):

• to: e.g ?to=jpg // jpg, png, pdf or PDf (case insensitive)

  JPG - exports a JPEG image,

  PNG - exports a PNG image,

  PDF - exports a PDF document,

  Example:

   // For the "/export" endpoint
  axios({
      method: 'get',
      url: '/export?to=PDF'
  })
   .then(function (response) {
      //handle success
      console.log(response);
   })
   .catch(function (response) {
      //handle error
      console.log(response);
   });
