EasyImage is an easy to use image manipulation library written entirely in PHP and implemented in a single PHP class.

This library is written for a tool that is hosted on a legacy system. Ideally, you should use a tool that implements ImageMagick.

It's Easy!

The focus is on ease of use.

• You need only include a single class file.
• You don't need ImageMagick. This means EasyImage is going to be slightly slower than an ImageMagick solution, but will be more portable.
• No clean up! Temporary resources are destroyed automagically.
• Uses a single constructor for all image types, EasyImage::Create($file), so you don't have to remember a bunch of different function names.
• All editing methods are chainable, so you can achieve most image editing functionality in a single line. $img = EasyImage::Create($file)->scale(100)->borderRadius();.
• Output is a breeze too. To send the image to the browser simply echo the class instance, EasyImage will take care of headers and everything. echo EasyImage::Create($file)->greyScale();. There are also options to save the image locally or force it as a download.
• Works on ancient versions of PHP.

It can do anything!

(Almost...)

• Reads and writes Animated gifs.
• Reads Photoshop project files (PSD).
• Writes to PDF format.
• Resize, skew, layer, distort, replace colors, add watermarks, create text, create gradients, and a ton more.
• Get information about the image such as size, mime type, a list of colors in the image, et cetera.
• Call and wish you a happy birthday. Feature still in beta.
