i upload image on S3 server with knox on express.
I would like user could crop the image for this profile picture (like on facebook)
I heard about Jcrop for the user interface and imagemagick for the server. For you, what is the best way to do that ?
Sorry for my bad english.
You can try to use nice library GraphicsMagick for node.js https://github.com/aheckmann/gm
and here is a link to test some function and so on http://aheckmann.github.com/gm/
var gm = require('gm')
, resizeX = 200
, resizeY = 400
gm('/path/to/image.jpg')
.resize(resizeX, resizeY)
.write(response, function (err) {
if (err) ...
});
I know this answer is a little late, but I have been working on a module (called Picsee) that does just this, check it out here. It uploads photos, crops photos (you need a client-side library), and saves multiple versions based on your configuration. It uses GD
, not Image- or GraphicsMagick.
There is also a demo app that demonstrates how to upload, crop, and save multiple versions of the image. And the example is using JCrop
. Eventually I hope to add S3 support as well as several other features.
