react-native-image-crop-picker

iOS/Android image picker with support for camera, configurable compression, multiple images and cropping

Result

Usage

Import library

import ImagePicker from 'react-native-image-crop-picker';

Select from gallery

Call single image picker with cropping

ImagePicker.openPicker({
  width: 300,
  height: 400,
  cropping: true
}).then(image => {
  console.log(image);
});

Call multiple image picker

ImagePicker.openPicker({
  multiple: true
}).then(images => {
  console.log(images);
});

Select from camera

ImagePicker.openCamera({
  width: 300,
  height: 400,
  cropping: true
}).then(image => {
  console.log(image);
});

Crop picture

ImagePicker.openCropper({
  path: 'my-file-path.jpg',
  width: 300,
  height: 400
}).then(image => {
  console.log(image);
});

Optional cleanup

Module is creating tmp images which are going to be cleaned up automatically somewhere in the future. If you want to force cleanup, you can use clean to clean all tmp files, or cleanSingle(path) to clean single tmp file.

ImagePicker.clean().then(() => {
  console.log('removed all tmp images from tmp directory');
}).catch(e => {
  alert(e);
});

Post-install steps

iOS

In Xcode open Info.plist and add string key NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription with value that describes why do you need access to user photos. More info here https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/62229. Depending on what features you use, you also may need NSCameraUsageDescription and NSMicrophoneUsageDescription keys.

  • Add pod 'RSKImageCropper' and pod 'QBImagePickerController' to Podfile
non-cocoapods users
  • Drag and drop the ios/ImageCropPickerSDK folder to your xcode project. (Make sure Copy items if needed IS ticked)
  • Click on project General tab
    • Under Deployment Info set Deployment Target to 8.0
    • Under Embedded Binaries click + and add RSKImageCropper.framework and QBImagePicker.framework
Android
  • Make sure you are using Gradle 2.2.x (project build.gradle)
buildscript {
    ...
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
        ...
    }
    ...
}
  • Add useSupportLibrary (app build.gradle)
android {
    ...

    defaultConfig {
        ...
        vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
        ...
    }
    ...

Production build

If you are using pre-built frameworks from ios/ImageCropPickerSDK, then before deploying app to production you should strip off simulator ARCHs from these, or you can add frameworks from Libraries/imageCropPicker/Libraries/_framework_name_.xcodeproj/Products/_framework_name_.framework to Embedded Binaries instead of pre-built ones. Related issue: https://github.com/ivpusic/react-native-image-crop-picker/issues/61.

Details for second approach:

  1. Remove the pre-built frameworks from Embedded Binaries
  2. Build for Device
  3. Add the newly built binaries for both frameworks to Embedded Binaries (located at Libraries/imageCropPicker/Libraries/_framework_name_.xcodeproj/Products/_framework_name_.framework)
