Illuminage

Illuminage is a wrapper for the Imagine library to hook into the Laravel framework. It implements elegant shortcuts around Imagine and a smart cache system.

// This will create a cropped 200x300 thumb, cache it, and display it in an image tag
echo Illuminage::thumb('image.jpg', 200, 300)

// Shortcut
echo Illuminage::square('image.jpg', 300)

// This will resize image to specified dimensions, cache it, and display it in an image tag
echo Illuminage::resize('image.jpg', 200, 300)

// This will **proportionaly** resize image to fit the specified dimensions, cache it, and display it in an image tag
echo Illuminage::fit('image.jpg', 200, 300)

What you get from those calls are not direct HTML strings but objects implementing the HtmlObject\Tag abstract, so you can use all sorts of HTML manipulation methods on them :

$thumb = Illuminage::square('image.jpg', 200)->addClass('image-wide');
$thumb = $thumb->wrapWith('figure')->id('avatar');

echo $thumb;
// <figure id="avatar"><img class="image-wide" src="pathToThumbnail.jpg"></figure>

To get the URL of generated image:

echo $thumb->getPath();

You can at all time access the Image instance used to render the images and use the Imagine methods:

$thumb = Illuminage::image('foo.jpg');

echo $thumb->grayscale()->onImage(function($image) {
  $image->flipVertically()->rotate(45);
});
