I don't mind if this is done via a PHP script (ideally Codeigniter but any is fine) or via a Photoshop action.
Essentially I want to get an image which I can do the following:
- Trim all the 'boring' whitespace around the image
- Resize to a maximum of 380px (height & width)
- Finally pad the image out to 400px x 400px (e.g put my own 'white' padding around the modified image)
Can anyone give me any tips on how to do this using GD/ImageMagick or any suitable PHP script/library?
I have tried the following so far...
$gd = imagecreatefromjpeg('./assets/temp/whitespace-img.jpg');
imagetrim($gd, '#ffffff', null);
function imagetrim($im, $bg, $pad=null, $output=null){
// Calculate padding for each side.
if (isset($pad)){
$pp = explode(' ', $pad);
if (isset($pp[3])){
$p = array((int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1], (int) $pp[2], (int) $pp[3]);
}else if (isset($pp[2])){
$p = array((int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1], (int) $pp[2], (int) $pp[1]);
}else if (isset($pp[1])){
$p = array((int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1], (int) $pp[0], (int) $pp[1]);
}else{
$p = array_fill(0, 4, (int) $pp[0]);
}
}else{
$p = array_fill(0, 4, 0);
}
// Get the image width and height.
$imw = imagesx($im);
$imh = imagesy($im);
// Set the X variables.
$xmin = $imw;
$xmax = 0;
// Start scanning for the edges.
for ($iy=0; $iy<$imh; $iy++){
$first = true;
for ($ix=0; $ix<$imw; $ix++){
$ndx = imagecolorat($im, $ix, $iy);
if ($ndx != $bg){
if ($xmin > $ix){ $xmin = $ix; }
if ($xmax < $ix){ $xmax = $ix; }
if (!isset($ymin)){ $ymin = $iy; }
$ymax = $iy;
if ($first){ $ix = $xmax; $first = false; }
}
}
}
// The new width and height of the image. (not including padding)
$imw = 1+$xmax-$xmin; // Image width in pixels
$imh = 1+$ymax-$ymin; // Image height in pixels
// Make another image to place the trimmed version in.
$im2 = imagecreatetruecolor($imw+$p[1]+$p[3], $imh+$p[0]+$p[2]);
// Make the background of the new image the same as the background of the old one.
$bg2 = imagecolorallocate($im2, ($bg >> 16) & 0xFF, ($bg >> 8) & 0xFF, $bg & 0xFF);
imagefill($im2, 0, 0, $bg2);
// Copy it over to the new image.
imagecopy($im2, $im, $p[3], $p[0], $xmin, $ymin, $imw, $imh);
if ($output)
{
imagejpeg($im2, $output);
}
// To finish up, we replace the old image which is referenced.
$im = $im2;
}
