CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I did a quick test (read: incomplete / unstable extension) to integrate Jcrop and CiviCRM.

For now, the main use-case is to make it easy to crop  the main "contact image", but could be extended to profiles and custom files too:

The main part, and probably the most risky (security), is still missing: saving the cropped result on the server. So far, just wanted to get a prototype working, so that the client funds the work.

Code so far is available here:
https://github.com/mlutfy/ca.bidon.imagecrop

I searched a bit on the topic, and it seems to come up now and then, but I haven't seen any published solution for it. If there are any, or if you have any suggestions/ideas, please let me know!

If anyone wants to extend the extension to Drupal, jcrop is in this module:

https://drupal.org/project/imagefield_crop

And for WordPress, jcrop.js actually ships with core WP.

For those following, there is now a usable version available:
https://github.com/mlutfy/ca.bidon.imagecrop

It has a settings page (/civicrm/admin/imagecrop) and works mostly on the contact image, but it does crop, and the UI is usable. More technical information in the readme file for those interested, and I also opened a few issues for short-term goals.
