Widget for the Django ImageField that provides an interface for cropping the image client-side to a specific size.
Project description
django-client-side-image-cropping
Widget for the Django ImageField that provides an interface for cropping the image client-side (Using the Croppie Javascript library) to a specific size. Compatible with any Django form, including django-admin sites.
This widget differs from django-image-cropping because it performs the cropping operation in the browser instead of on the server.
- Use django-image-cropping if you want to save a copy of the original image on your server.
- Use django-client-side-image-cropping (this widget) if you don't need the original image. It will save you storage space and bandwidth.
Installation and setup
Install django-client-side-image-cropping (DCSIC) using pip :
pip install django-client-side-image-cropping
Make sure that 'django.contrib.staticfiles' is set up properly and add 'client_side_image_cropping' to your INSTALLED_APPS setting :
INSTALLED_APPS = [
# ...
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
# ...
'client_side_image_cropping',
]
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
Including static JS and CSS files
DCSIC needs a few Javascript and CSS files to function. If you use the widget in a django-admin site, you can use the first method to include these files. For all other sites, you should read the "For generic forms" section below.
For admin sites
Let your Admin classes inherit from DcsicAdminMixin, which will instruct the admin interface to include the necessary files:
from client_side_image_cropping import DcsicAdminMixin
class EbookAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin, DcsicAdminMixin):
form = EbookForm
For generic forms
Every page containing a form using the ClientsideCroppingWidget should include jQuery 1.9 (or newer) and two JS and CSS files in the head section:
{% load static %}
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static "client_side_image_cropping/cropping.css" %}"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static "client_side_image_cropping/cropping_widget.css" %}"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="{% static "client_side_image_cropping/croppie.min.js" %}"></script>
<script src="{% static "client_side_image_cropping/cropping_widget.js" %}"></script>
</head>
Usage
Use the ClientsideCroppingWidget for any django.forms.ImageField in a Form :
