RailsAdmin Jcrop Plugin

Image cropping made easy!

  1. Add it to your Gemfile and run bundle install:
gem 'rails_admin'
# Because rails_admin_jcrop autoload modules by checking plugins you use, it's
# recommended to require it explictly before rails_admin_jcrop
# e.g. if you use carrierwave
# gem 'carrierwave', :require => 'carrierwave'
gem 'rails_admin_jcrop' #, git: 'git://github.com/janx/rails_admin_jcrop.git'
  1. Configure your model field to use Jcrop:
# RAILS_ROOT/config/initializers/rails_admin.rb
config.model User do
  configure :avatar, :jcrop

  # Below is optional
  edit do
    field :avatar do
      jcrop_options aspectRatio: 500.0/320.0
    end
  end
end
  1. If you use Paperclip, you need to do nothing here, rails_admin_jcrop will append RailsAdminJcropper processor to your attachment automatically. If CarrierWave is used, please invoke :rails_admin_crop in your uploader:
class AvatarUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base

  version :thumb do
    process :rails_admin_crop
    process resize_to_fill: [500,320]
  end

end
  1. Done! Click the image on your RailsAdmin model edit page and enjoy cropping! Cropping Screenshot

Tips

  • Crop is done when you successfully return from the modal box, you don't need to save the whole record.
  • If you don't see the cropped image on rails admin edit page, the browser is possibly displaying cached version. Try refresh your browser.
  • rails_admin_jcrop >= 1.0.0 works with rails_admin ~> 0.3.x. For older rails_admin, use rails_admin_jcrop 0.2.1.

Field Options

jcrop_options

You can pass any Jcrop plugin allowed options here, for example, use aspectRatio to fix the ratio of selection box:

field :avatar do
  jcrop_options aspectRatio: 500.0/320.0
end

Please check Jcrop document for more available options.

fit_image

By default, image is scaled properly to make cropping more easy, but sometimes the image is still too large to fit in the modal window, you may need to scroll image up/down to crop. If you set fit_image to true, image will always be resized to fit in modal window.

field :avatar do
  fit_image true
end

Check screenshots below to see the difference:

When fit_image is false (default)

fit_image false

When fit_image is true

fit_image true

Localization

Localize the crop form by adding these entries:

    zh:
      admin:
        actions:
          crop:
            title: '剪裁'
            menu: '剪裁'
