README

jQuery plugin for in-place image cropping (zoom & pan, as opposed to select and drag).

This plugin depends only on jQuery. If either Hammer.js or jquery.hammer.js is loaded, the cropbox plugin will support gestures for panning and zooming the cropbox. Similary, if the jquery.mousewheel.js plugin is loaded, then the cropbox plugin will support zoom in & out using the mousewheel. All dependencies on third party libraries (other than jQuery) are strictly optional. Support for CommonJS and AMD loading is built in.

In browsers that support the HTML5 FIle API and Canvas API, the cropbox plugin provides mehtods to crop the image on the client and obtain the resulting cropped image as a Data URL or a binary blob to upload it to the server.

Check out the plugin in action here http://acornejo.github.io/jquery-cropbox/

History: This plugin started as a fork of jQcrop, and added touch support, mousewheel support and client resize support through the canvas api.

Install with Bower: bower install cropbox

Usage

	$('yourimage').cropbox({
	    width: 200,
		height: 200
	}, function() {
		//on load
		console.log('Url: ' + this.getDataURL());
	}).on('cropbox', function(e, data) {
        console.log('crop window: ' + data);
	});

Options

Methods

Event

To get the crop results, bind a function on the cropbox event or read the object's result property .

    $('yourimage').cropbox({width: 250, height: 250})
    .on('cropbox', function (e, result) {
        console.log(result);
    });

A reference to the cropbox object can be accessed like so:

	var crop = $('yourimage').data('cropbox');
	console.log(crop.result);

or inside the onload function:

	var crop = $('yourimage').cropbox({}, function() {
		console.log(this.result);
	});

You then have access to all the properties and methods used for that specific element.
