Template Example

1<croppa v-model="myCroppa"
2        :width="400"
3        :height="400"
4        :canvas-color="'default'"
5        :placeholder="'Choose an image'"
6        :placeholder-font-size="0"
7        :placeholder-color="'default'"
8        :accept="'image/*'"
9        :file-size-limit="0"
10        :quality="2"
11        :zoom-speed="3"
12        :disabled="false"
13        :disable-drag-and-drop="false"
14        :disable-click-to-choose="false"
15        :disable-drag-to-move="false"
16        :disable-scroll-to-zoom="false"
17        :disable-rotation="false"
18        :prevent-white-space="false"
19        :reverse-scroll-to-zoom="false"
20        :show-remove-button="true"
21        :remove-button-color="'red'"
22        :remove-button-size="0"
23        :initial-image="'path/to/initial-image.png'"
24        :fillPlaceholderImage="false"
25        @init="handleCroppaInit"
26        @file-choose="handleCroppaFileChoose"
27        @file-size-exceed="handleCroppaFileSizeExceed"
28        @file-type-mismatch="handleCroppaFileTypeMismatch"
29        @image-remove="handleImageRemove"
30        @move="handleCroppaMove"
31        @zoom="handleCroppaZoom"></croppa>

NOTE: This is an almost-full-use example. Usually you don't need to specify so many props, because they all have default values. Most simply, you can even do:

1<croppa v-model="myCroppa"></croppa>

Method Examples

1this.myCroppa.remove();
2
3this.myCroppa.zoomIn();
4
5alert(this.myCroppa.generateDataUrl());

Quick Start

1. Import df-croppa into your vue.js project.

Using build tools:

1npm install --save df-croppa

1import Vue from 'vue';
2import Croppa from 'df-croppa';
3
4Vue.use(Croppa);

1// If your build tool supports css module
2import 'df-croppa/dist/vue-croppa.css';

Not using build tools:

1<link href="https://unpkg.com/df-croppa/dist/vue-croppa.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
2<script src="https://unpkg.com/df-croppa/dist/vue-croppa.min.js"></script>

1Vue.use(Croppa);

2. Now you have it. The simplest usage:

1<croppa v-model="myCroppa"></croppa>

1new Vue({
2  // ... other vm options omitted
3  data: {
4    myCroppa: {}
5  },
6
7  methods: {
8    uploadCroppedImage() {
9      this.myCroppa.generateBlob(
10        blob => {
11          // write code to upload the cropped image file (a file is a blob)
12        },
13        'image/jpeg',
14        0.8
15      ); // 80% compressed jpeg file
16    }
17  }
18});

Live example: https://jsfiddle.net/jdcvpvty/2/

NOTE:

• Since v0.1.0, you can change the default component name to anything you want.

1import Vue from 'vue';
2import Croppa from 'df-croppa';
3
4Vue.use(Croppa, { componentName: 'my-image-cropper' });

1<my-image-cropper v-model="myCroppa"></my-image-cropper>

• Since v0.1.1, you can get the component object with Croppa.component. This is useful when you want to register the component by yourself manually.

1Vue.component('croppa', Croppa.component);

1// Register async component (Webpack 2 + ES2015 Example). More about async component: https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/components.html#Async-Components
2Vue.component('croppa', () => import(Croppa.component));

• Since v1.0.0, the v-modeled value and the ref both point to the same thing - the component itself. So you don't need to set v-model anymore if you have a ref on the component.

1<croppa ref="myCroppa"></croppa>

1this.$refs.myCroppa.chooseFile();
2this.$refs.myCroppa.generateDataUrl();
3// ...

passive

(1.2.0) Switch to passive mode. Croppa in passive mode will sync state with another croppa if they v-model the same object. Also it will not have self-control - user can't manipulate image on passive croppa. This is useful as a preview component.

These states will be synced:

1[
2  'imgData',
3  'img',

• type: boolean
• default: false

---

🌱 Slots

initial

• You can provide an initial image by putting an <img> node as a named slot initial. For example:

1<croppa v-model="myCroppa">
2  <img slot="initial" :src="initialImageUrl" />
3</croppa>

NOTE:

• You need to explicitly call .refresh() method after changing inital image.
• If you provide both the slot and initial-image prop, the slot will be the one that is used.

---

placeholder

• If you are not satified with the simple text placeholder. Since v0.3.0, you can apply an <img> slot named placeholder to get an image placeholder! The image will be draw on croppa under the placeholder text.

1<croppa v-model="myCroppa">
2  <img slot="placeholder" src="static/placeholder-image.png" />
3</croppa>

NOTE:

• It is recommended to use a small-sized image as the placeholder image.
• The image will be drawn with 100% width and height of croppa container, i.e. it will cover the container. So it is recommended to use a images with the same aspect ratio as the container.
• Find demo "Image Placeholder" in the demo page

default

• (v1.1.0+) Default slots (unnamed) will be appended to the container element after the built-in elements.
• Usually you need to set position: absolute on these slots or it will expand the container.

🌱 Methods

getCanvas()

• returns the canvas object

getContext()

• returns the canvas context object

getChosenFile()

getActualImageSize()

• Return an object { width, height } describing the real image size (preview size * quality)
• Deprecated Use this.myCroppa.outputWidth and this.myCroppa.outputHeight instead.

moveUpwards( amountInPx: number )

moveDownwards( amountInPx: number )

moveLeftwards( amountInPx: number )

moveRightwards( amountInPx: number )

move({x, y})

• (v1.0.0+) for more flexibility.

zoomIn()

zoomOut()

zoom(in, timesQuicken)

• (v1.0.0+) for more flexibility.

flipY()

• Vertically flip image.

chooseFile()

• Opens the file chooser window to Choose an image. Useful when default click-to-choose interaction is disabled.

myCroppa.reset()

remove()

• Removes the current image, can be used to implement your own remove-button.

refresh()

• Reinitialize the component. Useful when you want to change initial image.

hasImage()

• Return boolean value indicating whether currently there is a image.

generateDataUrl( type: string, compressionRate: number )

• Returns a data-URL containing a representation of the image in the format specified by the type parameter (defaults to png).
• compressionRate (v0.2.0+) defaults to 1, you can pass a number between 0 and 1 to get a compressed output image.

generateBlob( callback: function, mimeType: string, compressionRate: number )

• Creates a Blob object representing the image contained in the canvas. Look up argument definition here.
• If there is no image, the first argument of callback function is null.

promisedBlob( mimeType: string, compressionRate: number )

• This method returns a Promise wrapping around generateBlob(), so that you can use async/await syntax instead of a callback to get blob data, it's simpler.

1const blob = await this.myCroppa.promisedBlob()

• If there is no image, it will resolve null.

getMetadata()

• Require v0.3.0+
• Get metadata that describes current user manipulations (moving, zooming, rotating).

1var metadata = this.myCroppa.getMetadata();
2console.log(metadata);
3
4/* in console
5{
6  startX:-535.5180530546083,
7  startY:-358.0699623303261,

9  orientation:6
10}
11*/

• Find demo "Use Metadata" in the demo page.

applyMetadata(metadata)

• Require v0.3.0+
• Apply metadata to get to a certain manipulation state (moving, zooming, rotating).
• metadata can have one or more of these 4 properties: startX, startY, scale, orientation. Usually you will use the object returned by getMetadata().

1var metadata = {
2  startX: -535.5180530546083,
3  startY: -358.0699623303261,
4  scale: 2.2502626424905396,
5  orientation: 6
6};
7
8this.myCroppa.applyMetadata(metadata);

• Find demo "Use Metadata" in the demo page.

addClipPlugin(func)

• Add clip plugin to clip the image. Example:

1// Add a clip plugin to make a circle clip on image
2onInit(vm) {
3  this.croppa.addClipPlugin(function (ctx, x, y, w, h) {
4    /*
5     * ctx: canvas context
6     * x: start point (top-left corner) x coordination
7     * y: start point (top-left corner) y coordination
8     * w: croppa width
9     * h: croppa height
10    */
11    ctx.beginPath()
12    ctx.arc(x + w / 2, y + h / 2, w / 2, 0, 2 * Math.PI, true)
13    ctx.closePath()
14  })
15},

• Note: in the plugin function you should always start with ctx.beginPath() and end with ctx.closePath().
• Note: it only works when prevent-white-space is true.
• Demo

supportDetection()

• Return an object indicating browser supports. Like this:

1{
2  basic: true, // supports basic functionality
3  dnd: false // does not support drag and drop
4}

🌱 State data

Since v1.0.0, you can access all state data of croppa via the instance. For example,

1this.myCroppa.naturalWidth;
2this.myCroppa.imgData.startX;
3this.myCroppa.scaleRatio;
4this.myCroppa.pinching;
5//...

All data available:

Sorry I'm too lazy to doc about each of them. Please open the vue-devtool to figure out what they mean by yourself.

You can also open an issue to ask me any question about this component.

Note that "computed" and "props" are read-only. Some value on "data" are also not recommended to modify from outside, for example ctx, canvas, img.

• v1.1.0: loading indicates whether an image is loading (will but not yet be drawn on canvas).

🌱 Customize styles

• Check out default css styles. You can add more css styles to those selectors to get a different look. Be careful if you try to overwrite existing styles.
• Note that CSS styles will not have any effect on the output image.
