<h1>Image Manipulation Class<a class="headerlink" href="#image-manipulation-class" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p>CodeIgniter&#8217;s Image Manipulation class lets you perform the following
actions:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Image Resizing</li>
<li>Thumbnail Creation</li>
<li>Image Cropping</li>
<li>Image Rotating</li>
<li>Image Watermarking</li>
</ul>
<p>All three major image libraries are supported: GD/GD2, NetPBM, and
ImageMagick</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">Watermarking is only available using the GD/GD2 library. In
addition, even though other libraries are supported, GD is required in
order for the script to calculate the image properties. The image
processing, however, will be performed with the library you specify.</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id1">Initializing the Class</a><a class="headerlink" href="#initializing-the-class" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Like most other classes in CodeIgniter, the image class is initialized
in your controller using the $this-&gt;load-&gt;library function:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">library</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;image_lib&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Once the library is loaded it will be ready for use. The image library
object you will use to call all functions is: <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$this-&gt;image_lib</span></tt></p>
<div class="section" id="processing-an-image">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id2">Processing an Image</a><a class="headerlink" href="#processing-an-image" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>Regardless of the type of processing you would like to perform
(resizing, cropping, rotation, or watermarking), the general process is
identical. You will set some preferences corresponding to the action you
intend to perform, then call one of four available processing functions.
For example, to create an image thumbnail you&#8217;ll do this:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;image_library&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s1">&#39;gd2&#39;</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;source_image&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s1">&#39;/path/to/image/mypic.jpg&#39;</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;create_thumb&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">TRUE</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;maintain_ratio&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">TRUE</span><span class="p">;</span>

<span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;height&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span>       <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mi">50</span><span class="p">;</span>

<span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">library</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;image_lib&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">);</span>

<span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">image_lib</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">resize</span><span class="p">();</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The above code tells the image_resize function to look for an image
called <em>mypic.jpg</em> located in the source_image folder, then create a
thumbnail that is 75 X 50 pixels using the GD2 image_library. Since the
maintain_ratio option is enabled, the thumb will be as close to the
target width and height as possible while preserving the original aspect
ratio. The thumbnail will be called <em>mypic_thumb.jpg</em> and located at
the same level as <em>source_image</em>.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">In order for the image class to be allowed to do any
processing, the folder containing the image files must have write
permissions.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">Image processing can require a considerable amount of server
memory for some operations. If you are experiencing out of memory errors
while processing images you may need to limit their maximum size, and/or
adjust PHP memory limits.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="processing-methods">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Processing Methods</a><a class="headerlink" href="#processing-methods" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>There are four available processing methods:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>$this-&gt;image_lib-&gt;resize()</li>
<li>$this-&gt;image_lib-&gt;crop()</li>
<li>$this-&gt;image_lib-&gt;rotate()</li>
<li>$this-&gt;image_lib-&gt;watermark()</li>
</ul>
<p>These methods return boolean TRUE upon success and FALSE for failure.
If they fail you can retrieve the error message using this function:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">echo</span> <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">image_lib</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">display_errors</span><span class="p">();</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>A good practice is to use the processing function conditionally, showing an
error upon failure, like this:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">if</span> <span class="p">(</span> <span class="o">!</span> <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">image_lib</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">resize</span><span class="p">())</span>
<span class="p">{</span>
        <span class="k">echo</span> <span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">image_lib</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">display_errors</span><span class="p">();</span>
<span class="p">}</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>You can optionally specify the HTML formatting to be applied to
the errors, by submitting the opening/closing tags in the function,
like this:</p>
<div class="last highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">image_lib</span><span class="o">-&gt;</span><span class="na">display_errors</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">&#39;&lt;p&gt;&#39;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s1">&#39;&lt;/p&gt;&#39;</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="preferences">
<span id="processing-preferences"></span><h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Preferences</a><a class="headerlink" href="#preferences" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>The preferences described below allow you to tailor the image processing
to suit your needs.</p>
<p>Note that not all preferences are available for every function. For
example, the x/y axis preferences are only available for image cropping.
Likewise, the width and height preferences have no effect on cropping.

<p>There are two types of watermarking that you can use:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><strong>Text</strong>: The watermark message will be generated using text, either
with a True Type font that you specify, or using the native text
output that the GD library supports. If you use the True Type version
your GD installation must be compiled with True Type support (most
are, but not all).</li>
<li><strong>Overlay</strong>: The watermark message will be generated by overlaying an
image (usually a transparent PNG or GIF) containing your watermark
over the source image.</li>
</ul>

<span id="watermarking"></span><h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id8">Watermarking an Image</a><a class="headerlink" href="#watermarking-an-image" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h3>
<p>Just as with the other methods (resizing, cropping, and rotating) the
general process for watermarking involves setting the preferences
corresponding to the action you intend to perform, then calling the
watermark function. Here is an example:</p>

<p>The above example will use a 16 pixel True Type font to create the text
&#8220;Copyright 2006 - John Doe&#8221;. The watermark will be positioned at the
bottom/center of the image, 20 pixels from the bottom of the image.</p>

<p>The image resizing method lets you resize the original image, create a
copy (with or without resizing), or create a thumbnail image.</p>
<p>For practical purposes there is no difference between creating a copy
and creating a thumbnail except a thumb will have the thumbnail marker
as part of the name (i.e. mypic_thumb.jpg).</p>
<p>All preferences listed in the <a class="reference internal" href="#processing-preferences"><em>Preferences</em></a> table are available for this
method except these three: <em>rotation_angle</em>, <em>x_axis</em> and <em>y_axis</em>.</p>
<p><strong>Creating a Thumbnail</strong></p>
<p>The resizing method will create a thumbnail file (and preserve the
original) if you set this preference to TRUE:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;create_thumb&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="k">TRUE</span><span class="p">;</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This single preference determines whether a thumbnail is created or not.</p>
<p><strong>Creating a Copy</strong></p>
<p>The resizing method will create a copy of the image file (and preserve
the original) if you set a path and/or a new filename using this
preference:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nv">$config</span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s1">&#39;new_image&#39;</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s1">&#39;/path/to/new_image.jpg&#39;</span><span class="p">;</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Notes regarding this preference:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>If only the new image name is specified it will be placed in the same
folder as the original</li>
<li>If only the path is specified, the new image will be placed in the
destination with the same name as the original.</li>
<li>If both the path and image name are specified it will placed in its
own destination and given the new name.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Resizing the Original Image</strong></p>
<p>If neither of the two preferences listed above (create_thumb, and
new_image) are used, the resizing method will instead target the
original image for processing.</p>
