how to capture image and crop it?

I want to capture an image and crop it, then with retrofit send this file to the server.
I try this code:
intent open camera
Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
File f = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "POST_IMAGE.jpg");
chooserIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, Uri.fromFile(f));
picUri = Uri.fromFile(f);
startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, REQUEST_CAMERA_IMAGE);
onActivityResult
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, #Nullable Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == REQUEST_CAMERA_IMAGE) {
path = data.getData();
performCrop(path);
}
}
and the performCrop method
private void performCrop(Uri picUri) {
try {
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
cropIntent.setDataAndType(picUri, "image/*");
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", true);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 300);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 300);
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
}
}
but this code is wrong! how to do this?
if I save the captured image, then crop it from the gallery, it worked? how to do this?
thank for your attention.

How to crop images from camera

How can I crop the camera images. Now it is showing the the image for crop and after selecting the crop section while tap on the "Save" button. Its showing as "saving image". After that nothing is happen. Here is my code.
Button click :
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.toString());
intent.putExtra("crop", "true");
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 0);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 0);
intent.putExtra("outputX", 200);
intent.putExtra("outputY", 150);
intent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_PIC_REQUEST);
onActivityResult :
Bundle extras = data.getExtras();
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) extras.get("data");
if (bitmap != null) {
Img_View.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}

You can use this code to perform cropping:
.....
final int CAMERA_CAPTURE = 1;
final int CROP_PIC = 2;
private Uri picUri;
....
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button captureBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.capture_btn);
captureBtn.setOnClickListener(this);
}
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v.getId() == R.id.capture_btn) {
try {
// use standard intent to capture an image
Intent captureIntent = new Intent(
MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
// we will handle the returned data in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(captureIntent, CAMERA_CAPTURE);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, "This device doesn't support the crop action!",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
if (requestCode == CAMERA_CAPTURE) {
// get the Uri for the captured image
picUri = data.getData();
performCrop();
}
// user is returning from cropping the image
else if (requestCode == CROP_PIC) {
// get the returned data
Bundle extras = data.getExtras();
// get the cropped bitmap
Bitmap thePic = extras.getParcelable("data");
ImageView picView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.picture);
picView.setImageBitmap(thePic);
}
}
}
/**
* this function does the crop operation.
*/
private void performCrop() {
// take care of exceptions
try {
// call the standard crop action intent (the user device may not
// support it)
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
// indicate image type and Uri
cropIntent.setDataAndType(picUri, "image/*");
// set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
// indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 2);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
// indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 256);
// retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
// start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, CROP_PIC);
}
// respond to users whose devices do not support the crop action
catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
Toast toast = Toast
.makeText(this, "This device doesn't support the crop action!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
You can use following simple tutorial to perform cropping:

Save yourself a lot of time and use this library I was messing around with trying to do it myself and stumbled on this library and its really simple to use and you get a professional looking image cropping view that lets you choose camera or photo library.
Simple example:
Include the library in your gradle
implementation 'com.theartofdev.edmodo:android-image-cropper:2.7.+'
Add permissions to manifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
//add this under <application>
<activity android:name="com.theartofdev.edmodo.cropper.CropImageActivity"
android:theme="#style/Base.Theme.AppCompat"/>
In your activity
//on button press or anywhere, this starts the image picking and cropping process
CropImage.activity()
.setGuidelines(CropImageView.Guidelines.ON)
.start(this);
//in your activity where you will get the result of your cropped image
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == CropImage.CROP_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE) {
CropImage.ActivityResult result = CropImage.getActivityResult(data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Uri resultUri = result.getUri();
//From here you can load the image however you need to, I recommend using the Glide library
} else if (resultCode == CropImage.CROP_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_RESULT_ERROR_CODE) {
Exception error = result.getError();
}
}
}
Im not affiliated with this software

Try this
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
mImageCaptureUri = Uri.fromFile(new File(Environment
.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "tmp_avatar_"
+ String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis())
+ ".jpg"));
intent.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
mImageCaptureUri);
intent.setData(mImageCaptureUri);
intent.putExtra("outputX", 200);
intent.putExtra("outputY", 200);
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
intent.putExtra("scale", true);
intent.putExtra("return-data", true);

Android crop photo from camera

i want crop photo that i take from camera, so far i try do it like this but with no success
Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
File f = new File(android.os.Environment
.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "temp.jpg");
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, Uri.fromFile(f));
intent.putExtra("crop", "true");
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
intent.putExtra("outputX", 200);
intent.putExtra("outputY", 200);
getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CAMERA);
is it possible to do it without any 3th part libraries.?
i checked https://github.com/biokys/cropimage
but it doesnt gave me any results
if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
String path = data.getStringExtra(CropImage.IMAGE_PATH);
// if nothing received
if (path == null) {
return;
}
// cropped bitmap
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path);
((ImageView) findViewById(R.id.userpicture)).setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}

is it possible to do it without any 3th part libraries.?
Not reliably. Android does not have a CROP Intent.
i checked https://github.com/biokys/cropimage but it doesnt gave me any results
Perhaps you did not integrate it properly. In addition to the libraries mentioned in my blog post (linked to above), the Android Arsenal has a few options.

try this
private void performCrop(Uri picUri) {
try {
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
// indicate image type and Uri
cropIntent.setDataAndType(picUri, "image/*");
// set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
// indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
// indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 128);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 128);
// retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
// start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
}
// respond to users whose devices do not support the crop action
catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
// display an error message
String errorMessage = "Whoops - your device doesn't support the crop action!";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getActivity(), errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
declare:
final int PIC_CROP = 1;
at top.
In onActivity result method, writ following code:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == PIC_CROP) {
if (data != null) {
// get the returned data
Bundle extras = data.getExtras();
// get the cropped bitmap
Bitmap selectedBitmap = extras.getParcelable("data");
imgView.setImageBitmap(selectedBitmap);
}
}
}

change the ration of android crop functionality

I am using the crop functionality of android. My problem is everytime I drag the left/right side of the square, the bottom follows. It retains the ratio of the square shape.
Any solutions how to change the ratio of the box, for example I want to crop a rectangular shape instead of square shape.
This is my code
private void doCrop() {
try {
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
cropIntent.setDataAndType(mImageCaptureUri, "image/*");
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, CROP_FROM_CAMERA);
}
catch(ActivityNotFoundException anfe)
{
String errorMessage = "your device doesn't support the crop action!";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
}
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == CROP_FROM_CAMERA && resultCode == RESULT_OK)
{
Bundle extras = data.getExtras();
Bitmap thePic = extras.getParcelable("data");
ImageView picView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imgView);
picView.setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_XY);
picView.setImageBitmap(thePic);
}
}

I found simple solution for this:
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 0);
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 0);

Image quality decreases after cropping image

*I am working on an application in which i have to take image,crop it and then proceed to further implementation.When i capture image and save it to sdcard it's quality is good but when i try to save image after cropping,It's quality is worst.
Below is my code
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (arg0.getId() == R.id.captureimage) {
try {
//use standard intent to capture an image
final Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_CAPTURE);
}
catch(Exception e){ String errorMessage = "your device doesn't support capturing images!";
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();}
}
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == CAMERA_CAPTURE) {
Uri picUri = data.getData();
performCrop(picUri);
}
else if(requestCode == PIC_CROP){this.finish();
Intent i=new Intent(getApplicationContext(),display.class);
i.putExtra("jao", "jao");
startActivity(i);}
else {
Log.v("", "User cancelled");
}
}private void performCrop(Uri picUri) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent cropIntent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");
//indicate image type and Uri
cropIntent.setDataAndType(picUri, "image/*");
//set crop properties
cropIntent.putExtra("crop", "true");
//indicate aspect of desired crop
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);
cropIntent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);
//indicate output X and Y
cropIntent.putExtra("outputX", 256);
cropIntent.putExtra("outputY", 256);
File file = new File(_path);
Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
cropIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);
//retrieve data on return
cropIntent.putExtra("return-data", true);
//start the activity - we handle returning in onActivityResult
startActivityForResult(cropIntent, PIC_CROP);
}
Please guide me how can i make my cropped image quality better because with bad quality image i cannot do my other tasks....
