Usage

Crop image - This <CropCanvas /> component is the main component of the Cropperlite library which uses canvas API to crop an image. The Customizable Attributes of the component are:

• aspectRatio
• customAspectRatio
• style
• canvasStyle

import { Cropcanvas } from 'cropper-lite'

export default function component(){
   return(
      <>
         <CropCanvas 
            aspectRatio = 'profile' // profile | cover
            style = {{
               color: 'blue'
            }}
            canvasStyle = {{
               backgroundColor: 'teal',
               borderRadius: '5em'
            }}
         />
      </>
   )
}

Retrieve the image: The <CropCanvas /> component temporarily stores the image data in the localSTorage of the client after cropping. Cropperlite provides a simple module retriveImageData() that accesses the URL of image. You can use this URL to display the cropped image in your app or permanently store it in database.

import { Cropcanvas, retriveImageData } from 'cropper-lite'

export default function component(){
   const [imageSrc, setImageSrc] = useState(null)

   function retrieveImage(){
      let imageDataUrl = retrieveImageData()
      setImageSrc(imageDataUrl)

      // code to permanently store in database...
   }

   return(
      <>
         <CropCanvas 
            aspectRatio = 'profile' // profile | cover
            style = {{
               color: 'blue'
            }}
            canvasStyle = {{
               backgroundColor: 'teal'
            }}
         />

         <img src = { imageSrc }  alt = 'temp img' /> { /* temporary image display */ }
         <button onClick={ retrieveImage }>Display image</button>

      </>
   )
}
