HD Image Utils Plugin

HD Image Utils plugin provides a high quality image manipulation service, for scaling and cropping images. It uses the pure Java java-image-scaling library, and avoids the lesser quality JAI and the native ImageMagick libraries. The inputs are byte arrays or streams (not java.io.File), so it is well suited to be used with the mongofile plugin.

Operations

The plugin defines a service called hdImageService, which can be wired as normal by Spring. The following operations are available:

byte[] scale(InputStream inputStream, Integer width, Integer height)

Performs a high quality scale of an image to the specified dimensions. If either is left null, the aspect ratio of the image is maintained.

byte[] crop(InputStream inputStream, int x, int y, int width, int height)

Performs a crop of an image to the specified dimensions.

byte[] cropAndScale(InputStream inputStream, int cropX, int cropY, int cropWidth, int cropHeight, int scaleWidth, int scaleHeight)

Performs a crop of an image to the specified dimensions, followed by a scale.

Example

def hdImageService

def save() {
	def userInstance = new User(params)
    def logo = request.getFile('logo') // Make sure you use <g:uploadForm> with <input type="file" name="logo" />

	if (logo.empty) {
        flash.message = 'Logo must be uploaded'
        render(view: "create", model: [userInstance: userInstance])
        return
    }

	//Scale to logo size 100x100
	byte[] logoBytes = hdImageService.scale(logo.getInputStream(), 100, 100)

	// Use mongofile plugin to save image
	userInstance.saveMongofile(logoBytes, logo.getOriginalFilename(), 'logo')

	...
