Image Cropper

pub package

A Flutter plugin for Android, iOS and Web supports cropping images. This plugin is based on three different native libraries so it comes with different UI between these platforms.

Introduction

Image Cropper doesn't manipulate images in Dart codes directly, instead, the plugin uses Platform Channel to expose Dart APIs that Flutter application can use to communicate with three very powerful native libraries (uCrop, TOCropViewController and Cropper.js) to crop and rotate images. Because of that, all credits belong to these libraries.

This project aims to provide an ultimate and flexible image cropping experience. Made in Yalantis

TOCropViewController - Tim Oliver

TOCropViewController is an open-source UIViewController subclass to crop out sections of UIImage objects, as well as perform basic rotations. It is excellent for things like editing profile pictures, or sharing parts of a photo online. It has been designed with the iOS Photos app editor in mind, and as such, behaves in a way that should already feel familiar to users of iOS.

How to install

Android

  • Add UCropActivity into your AndroidManifest.xml
<activity
    android:name="com.yalantis.ucrop.UCropActivity"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"/>

Note:

From v1.2.0, you need to migrate your android project to v2 embedding (detail)

iOS

  • No configuration required

Web

  • Add following codes inside <head> tag in file web/index.html:
<head>
  ....

  <!-- cropperjs -->
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/cropperjs/1.6.2/cropper.css" />
  <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/cropperjs/1.6.2/cropper.min.js"></script>

  ....
</head>

Usage

Required parameters

  • sourcePath: the absolute path of an image file.

Optional parameters

  • maxWidth: maximum cropped image width.

  • maxHeight: maximum cropped image height.

  • aspectRatio: controls the aspect ratio of crop bounds. If this values is set, the cropper is locked and user can't change the aspect ratio of crop bounds.

  • compressFormat: the format of result image, png or jpg (default is ImageCompressFormat.jpg).

  • compressQuality: number between 0 and 100 to control the quality of image compression. Note: this field is ignored on Web.

  • uiSettings: controls UI customization on specific platform (android, ios, web,...)

Note

  • The result file is saved in NSTemporaryDirectory on iOS and application Cache directory on Android, so it can be lost later, you are responsible for storing it somewhere permanent (if needed).

  • The implementation on Web is much different compared to the implementation on mobile app. It causes some configuration fields not working (compressQuality) on Web.

  • WebUiSettings is required for Web.

Image Cropper provides a helper class called IOUiSettings that wraps all properties can be used to customize UI in TOCropViewController library.

Property Description Type
minimumAspectRatio The minimum croping aspect ratio. If set, user is prevented from setting cropping rectangle to lower aspect ratio than defined by the parameter double
rectX The initial rect of cropping: x. double
rectY The initial rect of cropping: y. double
rectWidth The initial rect of cropping: width. double
rectHeight The initial rect of cropping: height. double
showActivitySheetOnDone If true, when the user hits 'Done', a UIActivityController will appear before the view controller ends bool
showCancelConfirmationDialog Shows a confirmation dialog when the user hits 'Cancel' and there are pending changes (default is false) bool
rotateClockwiseButtonHidden When disabled, an additional rotation button that rotates the canvas in 90-degree segments in a clockwise direction is shown in the toolbar (default is false) bool
embedInNavigationController Embed the presented TOCropViewController in a UINavigationController. (default is false) bool
hidesNavigationBar If this controller is embedded in UINavigationController its navigation bar is hidden by default. Set this property to false to show the navigation bar. This must be set before this controller is presented bool
rotateButtonsHidden When enabled, hides the rotation button, as well as the alternative rotation button visible when showClockwiseRotationButton is set to YES (default is false) bool
resetButtonHidden When enabled, hides the 'Reset' button on the toolbar (default is false) bool
aspectRatioPickerButtonHidden When enabled, hides the 'Aspect Ratio Picker' button on the toolbar (default is false) bool
resetAspectRatioEnabled If true, tapping the reset button will also reset the aspect ratio back to the image default ratio. Otherwise, the reset will just zoom out to the current aspect ratio. If this is set to false, and aspectRatioLockEnabled is set to true, then the aspect ratio button will automatically be hidden from the toolbar (default is true) bool
aspectRatioLockDimensionSwapEnabled If true, a custom aspect ratio is set, and the aspectRatioLockEnabled is set to true, the crop box will swap it's dimensions depending on portrait or landscape sized images. This value also controls whether the dimensions can swap when the image is rotated (default is false) bool
aspectRatioLockEnabled If true, while it can still be resized, the crop box will be locked to its current aspect ratio. If this is set to true, and resetAspectRatioEnabled is set to false, then the aspect ratio button will automatically be hidden from the toolbar (default is false) bool
title Title text that appears at the top of the view controller. String
doneButtonTitle Title for the 'Done' button. Setting this will override the Default which is a localized string for "Done" String
cancelButtonTitle Title for the 'Cancel' button. Setting this will override the Default which is a localized string for "Cancel" String
cropStyle controls the style of crop bounds, it can be rectangle or circle style (default is CropStyle.rectangle). CropStyle
aspectRatioPresets controls the list of aspect ratios in the crop menu view. List

themeData Control UI customization WebThemeData

View Mode:

  • 0: no restrictions
  • 1: restrict the crop box not to exceed the size of the canvas.
  • 2: restrict the minimum canvas size to fit within the container. If the proportions of the canvas and the container differ, the minimum canvas will be surrounded by extra space in one of the dimensions.
  • 3: restrict the minimum canvas size to fill fit the container. If the proportions of the canvas and the container are different, the container will not be able to fit the whole canvas in one of the dimensions.

If you set viewMode to 0, the crop box can extend outside the canvas, while a value of 1, 2, or 3 will restrict the crop box to the size of the canvas. viewMode of 2 or 3 will additionally restrict the canvas to the container. There is no difference between 2 and 3 when the proportions of the canvas and the container are the same.

Drag Mode:

  • crop: create a new crop box
  • move: move the canvas
  • none: do nothing

Note:

If using WebDialogBuilder and WebRouteBuilder to customize cropper dialog and route, the customization codes must to call following functions:

  • initCropper() to initialize Cropper object.
  • crop() to trigger crop feature and then returning the cropped result data to the plugin by using Navigator.of(context).pop(result).

  class CropperDialog extends StatefulWidget {
    ...
  }  

  class _CropperDialogState extends State<CropperDialog> {
    @override
    void initState() {
      super.initState();
      /// IMPORTANT: must to call this function
      widget.initCropper();
    }

    @override
    Widget build(BuildContext context) {
      Dialog(
        child: Column(
          children: [
            ...
            cropper,
            ...
            TextButton(
              onPressed: () async {
                /// IMPORTANT: to call crop() function and return
                /// result data to plugin, for example:
                final result = await crop();
                Navigator.of(context).pop(result);
              },
              child: Text('Crop'),
            )
          ]
        ),
      );
    }
  }

  WebUiSettings(
    ...
    customDialogBuilder: (cropper, initCropper, crop, rotate, scale) {
      return CropperDialog(
        cropper: cropper,
        initCropper: initCropper,
        crop: crop,
        rotate: rotate,
        scale: scale,
      );
    },
    ...
  )
