django-croppy image0

django-croppy enables creating custom crops of images by specifying a name, coordinates, width and height of the crop.

django-croppy provides a custom model field responsible for creating and deleting crops. Crops are stored as serialized JSON data on the same model as the image field via django-jsonfield.

django-croppy is useful if you want to manually curate the crop size and location instead of relying on generic cropping like django-imagekit provides.

django-croppy makes use of image processors provided by django-imagekit.

Usage

First, create your model with a crop field. You can specify a custom location where to save crops to with the upload_to parameter:

from django.db import models
from croppy.fields import CropField

def upload_to(instance, filename, crop_name):
    """
    Default function to specify a location to save crops to.

    :param instance: The model instance this crop field belongs to.
    :param filename: The image's filename this crop field operates on.
    :param crop_name: The crop name used when :attr:`CropFieldDescriptor.crop` was
        called.
    """
    filename, ext = os.path.splitext(os.path.split(filename)[-1])
    return os.path.join('crops', u'%s-%s%s' % (filename, crop_name, ext))

class Image(models.Model):
    image = models.ImageField()
    crops = CropField('image', upload_to = upload_to)

The created crops field allows you to create, delete and inspect crops.
