## Image

### Deprecated

This task has been deprecated, because Java Advanced Image API depends on internal classes which were removed in Java 9. Use the `ImageIO` task instead.

### Description

Applies a chain of image operations on a set of files.

Requires Java Advanced Image API from Sun.

##### Overview of used datatypes

### Parameters

Attribute | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
failonerror | Boolean value. If false, note errors to the output but keep going. | No; defaults to true
srcdir | Directory containing the images. | Yes, unless nested fileset is used
encoding | Image encoding type. Valid (case insensitive) are: jpg, jpeg, tif, tiff | No; defaults to jpeg
overwrite | Boolean value. Sets whether or not to overwrite a file if there is naming conflict. | No; defaults to false
gc | Boolean value. Enables garbage collection after each image processed. | No; defaults to false
destdir | Directory where the result images are stored. | No; defaults to value of srcdir
includes | comma- or space-separated list of patterns of files that must be included. | No; defaults to all (**)
includesfile | name of a file. Each line of this file is taken to be an include pattern | No
excludes | comma- or space-separated list of patterns of files that must be excluded. | No; defaults to default excludes or none if defaultexcludes is no
excludesfile | name of a file. Each line of this file is taken to be an exclude pattern | No
defaultexcludes | indicates whether default excludes should be used or not (yes|no). | No; defaults to yes
caseSensitive | Boolean value. Sets case sensitivity of the file system. | No; defaults to false
followSymlinks | Shall symbolic links and Windows junctions be followed? See fileset's documentation. Windows junctions are detected since Ant 1.10.16. | No; defaults to true

### Parameters specified as nested elements

This task forms an implicit FileSet and supports most attributes of `<fileset>` as well as the nested `<include>`, `<exclude>` and `<patternset>` elements.

The following ImageOperation objects can be specified as nested elements: `Rotate`, `Scale` and `Draw`.

#### Rotate

Adds a Rotate ImageOperation to chain.

##### Parameters

Attribute | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
angle | Float value. Sets the angle of rotation in degrees. | No; defaults to 0.0F

#### Scale

Adds a Scale ImageOperation to chain.

##### Parameters

Attribute | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---

proportions

Sets which dimension to control proportions from. Valid values are:

- ignore—treat the dimensions independently.
- height—keep proportions based on the width.
- width—keep proportions based on the height.
- cover—keep proportions and fit in the supplied dimensions.
- fit—keep proportions and cover the supplied dimensions.

No; defaults to ignore

width | Sets the width of the image, either as an integer (pixels) or a %. | No; defaults to 100%
height | Sets the height of the image, either as an integer (pixels) or a %. | No; defaults to 100%

#### Draw

Adds a Draw ImageOperation to chain. DrawOperation DataType objects can be nested inside the Draw object.

##### Parameters

Attribute | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
xloc | X-Position where to draw nested image elements. | No; defaults to 0
yloc | Y-Position where to draw nested image elements. | No; defaults to 0

For description of nested elements, please see the documentation of ImageIO task.

#### mapper

Since Apache Ant 1.8.0

You can define filename transformations by using a nested mapper element. The default mapper used by `<image>` is the identity mapper.

You can also use a `filenamemapper` type in place of the `mapper` element.

### Examples

Create thumbnails of my images and make sure they all fit within the 160×160 pixel size whether the image is portrait or landscape.

    <image destdir="samples/low" overwrite="yes">
        <fileset dir="samples/full">
            <include name="**/*.jpg"/>
        </fileset>
        <scale width="160" height="160" proportions="fit"/>
    </image>

Create a thumbnail for all PNG files in `src` of the size of 40 pixels keeping the proportions and store the `src`.

    <image srcdir="src" includes="*.png">
        <scale proportions="width" width="40"/>
    </image>

Same as above but store the result in `dest`.

    <image srcdir="src" destdir="dest" includes="*.png">
        <scale proportions="width" width="40"/>
    </image>

Same as above but store the result to files with original names prefixed by `scaled-`.

    <image srcdir="src" destdir="dest" includes="*.png">
        <scale proportions="width" width="40"/>
        <globmapper from="*" to="scaled-*"/>
    </image>
