Imagecow Versions Save

• Fixed a bug using float values
• Normalize the use of constants in Image::transform(). For example crop(200, 400, Image::CROP_ENTROPY) is represented as crop,200,400,CROP_ENTROPY.

• Use of constants to define the library to use (but you can keep using the strings "Gd", "Imagick"): php $image = Image::create('my-image.jpg', Image::LIB_IMAGICK);

• The method Imagecow\Image::resize() accepts a fourth argument to resize the image using the smallest value instead the biggest. It's similar to css background-size: contain and background-size: cover. Example:

  //load an image of 400x200px
  $image = Imagecow\Image::create('image.jpg');
  
  $image->resize(100, 100, false); //the result is an image of 100x50px
  $image->resize(100, 100, false, true); //the result is an image of 200x100px
  

• The use of proportions to define the position of the image on crop works like css's background-position great explained in this article

• Implemented the constants Imagecow\Image::CROP_ENTROPY and Imagecow\Image::CROP_BALANCED to use instead x/y position in crop and resizeCrop methods. This methods are taken from stojg/crop library and only works in Imagick. For Gd there's a fallback that uses center/middle instead.

• Improved documentation in README

Improved compatibility checking. Now an exeception is throwed if gd is not installed

New methods Image::createFromFile() and Image::createFromString() because Image::create() does not always detect right the type of source

• Changed the autoload to PSR-4

• allow GD::createFromFile to handle remote urls #13
• Added the svgExtractor class to generate images from vector svg files.

• Improved the code quality. There is a lot of internal changes
• Added unitests and implemented travis-ci / scrutinizr
• Changed the way to create imagecow instances. Now each instance manages only one image, so the methods "getImage", "setImage", "load" and "unload" has been removed. The new way:

use Imagecow\Image;

$image = Image::create('path/to/image-file.png', 'Imagick');

• Use of exceptions for a better error management, so you have to put your code in a try statement.
• Rewrited the class IconExtractor. Now it uses Imagick and changed the API.
• Changed the way the javascript library saves the cookie for more simplicity.
• Removed a lot of duplicated code, bugs, better documentation, etc.

• Added Image::autoRotate() that rotates/flip/flop the image automatically according its EXIF data
• Changed the coding styles to follow PSR-1 and PSR-2
• fixed getExifData for non jpeg images
• fixed rotate in Imagick
• removed obsolete commets and update README with the rotate/autoRotate method

Resize in GD with autocalculate width or height can result in 0px. Fixed that using ceil instead floor.

• Bugfixes: #8
• Changed license to MIT
• Added @AndreasHeiberg as a contributor
• Removed setQuality (setCompressionQuality does the same)
