CakeImageCropResize
A small CakePHP plugin for resizing and cropping of images. Includes a Helper and Component.
The Helper and/or Component gives you the ability to leave your original images in tact and resize/crop them for View only.
Requirements
The master branch has the following requirements:
- CakePHP 2.2.0 or greater.
- PHP 5.3.0 or greater.
Installation
- Clone/Copy the files in this directory into
app/Plugin/ImageCropResize
- Ensure the plugin is loaded in
app/Config/bootstrap.php
by callingCakePlugin::load('ImageCropResize');
- Include the component in your
AppController.php
:public $components = array('ImageCropResize.Image');
- Or include the helper in your
AppController.php
:public $helpers = array('ImageCropResize.Image');
Documentation
Both the Helper and Component have resize method that can be used as follow:
$options = array(
'width' => null, //Width of the new Image, Default is Original Width
'height' => null, //Height of the new Image, Default is Original Height
'aspect' => true, //Keep aspect ratio
'crop' => false, //Crop the Image
'cropvars' => array(), //How to crop the image, array($startx, $starty, $endx, $endy);
'autocrop' => false, //Auto crop the image, calculate the crop according to the size and crop from the middle
'htmlAttributes' => array(), //Html attributes for the image tag
'quality' => 90, //Quality of the image
'urlOnly' => false //Return only the URL or return the Image tag
);
echo $this->Image->resize($imagePath, $options);
The resized image will be cached inside the webroot/img/cache directory. So we only have cached images inside or webroot and leave the originals outside the webroot.
