Simple Image Crop directive for AngularJS. Enables to crop a circle or a square out of an image.
- AngularJS
- Modern Browser supporting
You have two options to get the files:
- Download ngImgCrop files from GitHub.
- Use Bower to download the files. Just run
bower install ngImgCrop
.
Add the scripts to your application. Make sure the ng-img-crop.js
file is inserted after the angular.js
library:
<script src="angular.js"></script>
<script src="ng-img-crop.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ng-img-crop.css">
Add the image crop module as a dependancy to your application module:
var myAppModule = angular.module('MyApp', ['ngImgCrop']);
- Add the image crop directive
<img-crop>
to the HTML file where you want to use an image crop control. Note: a container, you place the directive to, should have some pre-defined size (absolute or relative to its parent). That's required, because the image crop control fits the size of its container. - Bind the directive to a source image property (using image="" option). The directive will read the image data from that property and watch for updates. The property can be a url to an image, or a data uri.
- Bind the directive to a result image property (using result-image="" option). On each update, the directive will put the content of the crop area to that property in the data uri format.
- Set up the options that make sense to your application.
- Done!
The result image will always be a square for the both circle and square area types. It's highly recommended to store the image as a square on your back-end, because this will enable you to easily update your pics later, if you decide to implement some design changes. Showing a square image as a circle on the front-end is not a problem - it is as easy as adding a border-radius style for that image in a css.
The following code enables to select an image using a file input and crop it. The cropped image data is inserted into img each time the crop area updates.
