Small Laravel 4 app – Missing Pet Flyer generator
I decided to test out some new composer packages using Laravel 4.
The first package that I wanted to test was Intervention Image Class located at http://intervention.olivervogel.net/image.
It allows you to operate with images and do many common operations on images such as :
- Resizing
- Cropping
- Embedding other images
- Writing text
- Putting shapes and objects on the canvas
- Saving images in different formats
So to put those features to test I have created a small application for pet owners. It is a missing pet poster maker. It allows you to quickly create a poster with a picture of your pet and some text that is usually put on such posters.
The application is at
It uses the above mentioned package for image processing and the following JS libraries :
- Bootstrap for CSS and HTML (modified with SASS)
- JCrop – deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html
- Blueimp image uploader – blueimp.github.com/jQuery-File-Upload/
The structure for an app like this could easily be used for all kinds of image generators. If you want the source I will make it public.
UPDATE:
The source code has been published: https://github.com/msurguy/missingpetflyer
Enjoy and hopefully you will not need to use this app!
