How to use it?

STEP 1:

Grab via Gradle

repositories {
    jcenter()
}
dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.aryarohit07:fresco-facedetection-processor:0.1.1'
}

Or via Maven

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.aryarohit07</groupId>
  <artifactId>fresco-facedetection-processor</artifactId>
  <version>0.1.1</version>
</dependency>

STEP 2:

Initialize the detector (May be in onCreate() method)

FrescoFaceDetector.initialize(context);

STEP 3:

Set fresco processor

ImageRequest request = ImageRequestBuilder
  .newBuilderWithSource(uri)
  .setPostprocessor(new FaceCenterCrop(900, 900))
  .build();

PipelineDraweeController controller = (PipelineDraweeController)
  Fresco.newDraweeControllerBuilder()
    .setImageRequest(request)
    .setOldController(image2.getController())
    // other setters as you need
    .build();
mSimpleDraweeView.setController(controller);

STEP 4:

The face detector uses native resources in order to do detection. For this reason, it is necessary to release the detector instance once it is no longer needed (May be in onDestory() method)

FrescoFaceDetector.releaseDetector();

Note: If no face is detected, it will fallback to CENTER CROP.
