Dimensions is a pure Ruby library for reading the width, height and rotation angle of GIF, PNG, JPEG and TIFF images.
Use the dimensions
, width
and height
methods on the Dimensions
module to measure image files:
require 'dimensions'
Dimensions.dimensions("upload_bird.jpg") # => [300, 225]
Dimensions.width("upload_bird.jpg") # => 300
Dimensions.height("upload_bird.jpg") # => 225
Use the type
method to get image type:
Dimensions.type("upload_bird.jpg") # => :jpeg
Dimensions.type("wrong_ext.txt") # => :png
Many cameras and smartphones set the EXIF orientation attribute for
photos taken in portrait or landscape mode. The Dimensions library
reads this attribute and swaps the width
and height
values
automatically to accurately reflect how the image looks when
rotated. You can use the angle
method to check a JPEG image's
orientation in degrees:
Dimensions.angle("upload_bird.jpg") # => 0
Dimensions.angle("rotated.jpg") # => 90
Pass an IO object to the Dimensions
method to extend it with the
Dimensions::IO
module and transparently detect its dimensions and
orientation as it is read. Once the IO has been sufficiently read, its
width
, height
and angle
methods will return non-nil values
(assuming its contents are an image).
require 'dimensions'
require 'json'
require 'securerandom'
module Uploader
def self.call(env)
body = Dimensions(env["rack.input"])
# Handle the upload
token = SecureRandom.hex(20)
path = File.join(UPLOAD_PATH, token)
File.open(path, "wb") { |file| file.write body.read }
# Return the width and height as JSON
[
200,
{"Content-Type" => "application/json"},
[JSON.dump(
"token" => token,
"width" => body.width,
"height" => body.height
)]
]
end
end
1.3.0 (November 26, 2013)
- Added support for calling
#dimensions
on a Dimensions-extended rewindable IO without first calling#read
.
1.2.0 (April 25, 2012)
- Added support for measuring the dimensions of TIFF images.
1.1.0 (April 1, 2012)
- Fixed an issue where images with certain invalid orientation values would be improperly treated as having an angle of 270 degrees.
- Eliminated a message when loading Dimensions with warnings enabled.
1.0.0 (July 1, 2011)
- Initial release.
