Resize image with javascript canvas (smoothly)
You can use down-stepping to achieve better results. Most browsers seem to use linear interpolation rather than bi-cubic when resizing images.
(Update There has been added a quality property to the specs, imageSmoothingQuality which is currently available in Chrome only.)
Unless one chooses no smoothing or nearest neighbor the browser will always interpolate the image after down-scaling it as this function as a low-pass filter to avoid aliasing.
Bi-linear uses 2x2 pixels to do the interpolation while bi-cubic uses 4x4 so by doing it in steps you can get close to bi-cubic result while using bi-linear interpolation as seen in the resulting images.
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");var img = new Image();
img.onload = function () {
// set size proportional to image canvas.height = canvas.width * (img.height / img.width);
// step 1 - resize to 50% var oc = document.createElement('canvas'), octx = oc.getContext('2d');
oc.width = img.width * 0.5; oc.height = img.height * 0.5; octx.drawImage(img, 0, 0, oc.width, oc.height);
// step 2 octx.drawImage(oc, 0, 0, oc.width * 0.5, oc.height * 0.5);
// step 3, resize to final size ctx.drawImage(oc, 0, 0, oc.width * 0.5, oc.height * 0.5, 0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);}img.src = "//i.imgur.com/SHo6Fub.jpg";<img src="//i.imgur.com/SHo6Fub.jpg" width="300" height="234"><canvas id="canvas" width=300></canvas>Resizing an image in an HTML5 canvas
So what do you do if all the browsers (actually, Chrome 5 gave me quite good one) won't give you good enough resampling quality? You implement them yourself then! Oh come on, we're entering the new age of Web 3.0, HTML5 compliant browsers, super optimized JIT javascript compilers, multi-core(†) machines, with tons of memory, what are you afraid of? Hey, there's the word java in javascript, so that should guarantee the performance, right? Behold, the thumbnail generating code:
// returns a function that calculates lanczos weight
function lanczosCreate(lobes) {
return function(x) {
if (x > lobes)
return 0;
x *= Math.PI;
if (Math.abs(x) < 1e-16)
return 1;
var xx = x / lobes;
return Math.sin(x) * Math.sin(xx) / x / xx;
};
}
// elem: canvas element, img: image element, sx: scaled width, lobes: kernel radius
function thumbnailer(elem, img, sx, lobes) {
this.canvas = elem;
elem.width = img.width;
elem.height = img.height;
elem.style.display = "none";
this.ctx = elem.getContext("2d");
this.ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0);
this.img = img;
this.src = this.ctx.getImageData(0, 0, img.width, img.height);
this.dest = {
width : sx,
height : Math.round(img.height * sx / img.width),
};
this.dest.data = new Array(this.dest.width * this.dest.height * 3);
this.lanczos = lanczosCreate(lobes);
this.ratio = img.width / sx;
this.rcp_ratio = 2 / this.ratio;
this.range2 = Math.ceil(this.ratio * lobes / 2);
this.cacheLanc = {};
this.center = {};
this.icenter = {};
setTimeout(this.process1, 0, this, 0);
}
thumbnailer.prototype.process1 = function(self, u) {
self.center.x = (u + 0.5) * self.ratio;
self.icenter.x = Math.floor(self.center.x);
for (var v = 0; v < self.dest.height; v++) {

self.icenter.y = Math.floor(self.center.y);
var a, r, g, b;
a = r = g = b = 0;

if (i < 0 || i >= self.src.width)
continue;

if (self.cacheLanc[f_x][f_y] == undefined)
self.cacheLanc[f_x][f_y] = self.lanczos(Math.sqrt(Math.pow(f_x * self.rcp_ratio, 2)
+ Math.pow(f_y * self.rcp_ratio, 2)) / 1000);
weight = self.cacheLanc[f_x][f_y];
if (weight > 0) {
var idx = (j * self.src.width + i) * 4;
a += weight;
r += weight * self.src.data[idx];
g += weight * self.src.data[idx + 1];
b += weight * self.src.data[idx + 2];
}
}
}
var idx = (v * self.dest.width + u) * 3;
self.dest.data[idx] = r / a;
self.dest.data[idx + 1] = g / a;
self.dest.data[idx + 2] = b / a;
}
if (++u < self.dest.width)
setTimeout(self.process1, 0, self, u);
else
setTimeout(self.process2, 0, self);
};
thumbnailer.prototype.process2 = function(self) {
self.canvas.width = self.dest.width;
self.canvas.height = self.dest.height;
self.ctx.drawImage(self.img, 0, 0, self.dest.width, self.dest.height);
self.src = self.ctx.getImageData(0, 0, self.dest.width, self.dest.height);
var idx, idx2;
for (var i = 0; i < self.dest.width; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < self.dest.height; j++) {

idx2 = (j * self.dest.width + i) * 4;
self.src.data[idx2] = self.dest.data[idx];
self.src.data[idx2 + 1] = self.dest.data[idx + 1];

}
}
self.ctx.putImageData(self.src, 0, 0);
self.canvas.style.display = "block";
};
...with which you can produce results like these!
so anyway, here is a 'fixed' version of your example:
img.onload = function() {
var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
new thumbnailer(canvas, img, 188, 3); //this produces lanczos3
// but feel free to raise it up to 8. Your client will appreciate
// that the program makes full use of his machine.
document.body.appendChild(canvas);
};
Now it's time to pit your best browsers out there and see which one will least likely increase your client's blood pressure!
Umm, where's my sarcasm tag?
(since many parts of the code is based on Anrieff Gallery Generator is it also covered under GPL2? I don't know)
† actually due to limitation of javascript, multi-core is not supported.
Resizing images with javascript using canvas elements
You can resize an image also at the client-side. The example code below uses an image loaded from the user's local system, to run the example without need to worry about CORS issues. The snippet also stores the image as a Blob object, which can be posted to the server if needed.
// Creates a canvas containing a resized imagefunction resizeImage(img) { var canvas = document.createElement('canvas'), ctx = canvas.getContext('2d'), oWidth = img.naturalWidth, oHeight = img.naturalHeight, ratio = oWidth / oHeight, width = (ratio > 1) ? Math.min(200, oWidth) : Math.min(100, oWidth), height = Math.round(width / ratio); canvas.width = width; canvas.height = height; canvas.className = 'temp-cnv'; document.body.appendChild(canvas); ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0, width, height); return canvas;}
// Define UI elementsvar img = document.getElementById('img'), loadBut = document.getElementById('load'), resizeBut = document.getElementById('resize'), resizedImage; // This will be sent to the server
// Creates a blob and attaches it to an image elementresizeBut.addEventListener('click', function() { var canvas; if (img.src === 'https://stacksnippets.net/js') { return; // Quit, no image loaded } canvas = resizeImage(img); canvas.toBlob(function(blob) { img.src = URL.createObjectURL(blob); resizedImage = blob; canvas.parentElement.removeChild(canvas); }, 'image/jpeg', 0.99);});
// Reads an image from the user's local systemloadBut.addEventListener('change', function(e) { var file = new FileReader(); file.addEventListener('load', function() { img.src = file.result; }); file.readAsDataURL(e.target.files[0]);});.temp-cnv { display: none;}<input type="file" id="load"><button id="resize">Resize</button><br><img src="" id="img">HTML5 Canvas Resize (Downscale) Image High Quality?
Since your problem is to downscale your image, there is no point in talking about interpolation -which is about creating pixel-. The issue here is downsampling.
To downsample an image, we need to turn each square of p * p pixels in the original image into a single pixel in the destination image.
For performances reasons Browsers do a very simple downsampling : to build the smaller image, they will just pick ONE pixel in the source and use its value for the destination. which 'forgets' some details and adds noise.
Yet there's an exception to that : since the 2X image downsampling is very simple to compute (average 4 pixels to make one) and is used for retina/HiDPI pixels, this case is handled properly -the Browser does make use of 4 pixels to make one-.
BUT... if you use several time a 2X downsampling, you'll face the issue that the successive rounding errors will add too much noise.
What's worse, you won't always resize by a power of two, and resizing to the nearest power + a last resizing is very noisy.
What you seek is a pixel-perfect downsampling, that is : a re-sampling of the image that will take all input pixels into account -whatever the scale-.
To do that we must compute, for each input pixel, its contribution to one, two, or four destination pixels depending wether the scaled projection of the input pixels is right inside a destination pixels, overlaps an X border, an Y border, or both.
( A scheme would be nice here, but i don't have one. )
Here's an example of canvas scale vs my pixel perfect scale on a 1/3 scale of a zombat.
Notice that the picture might get scaled in your Browser, and is .jpegized by S.O..
Yet we see that there's much less noise especially in the grass behind the wombat, and the branches on its right. The noise in the fur makes it more contrasted, but it looks like he's got white hairs -unlike source picture-.
Right image is less catchy but definitively nicer.
Here's the code to do the pixel perfect downscaling :

}
It is quite memory greedy, since a float buffer is required to store the intermediate values of the destination image (-> if we count the result canvas, we use 6 times the source image's memory in this algorithm).
It is also quite expensive, since each source pixel is used whatever the destination size, and we have to pay for the getImageData / putImageDate, quite slow also.
But there's no way to be faster than process each source value in this case, and situation is not that bad : For my 740 * 556 image of a wombat, processing takes between 30 and 40 ms.
Canvas fill viewport and keep image ratio
To retain the image's correct proportions, you need to query it's 'natural' width and height. The image object itself has two properties for this purpose: naturalWidth and naturalHeight.
As the image finished loading you must decide by which factor to scale the image based on the dimensions of the browser window and the longer side of your image.
Let's have a look at a simple example. Say your browser window's width is 1200 pixel and the image 250. If we now divide 1200 by 250 we get 4.8 - that's the factor we need to multiply the image's width and height to fill the current browser window in one direction while maintaining it's correct aspect ratio.
Here's an example:
var ctx = $("#demo")[0].getContext("2d"),
img = new Image(),
radius = 35,
blurryImageSrc = "https://s9.postimg.cc/u9nsmzlwf/image.jpg";
/// setup logic
img.src = blurryImageSrc;
$(img).on("load", function() {
resizeCanvas();
});
var can = document.getElementById('demo');
function resizeCanvas() {
can.width = window.innerWidth;
can.height = window.innerHeight;
if (img.width > 0) {
let factor = can.width / img.naturalWidth * img.naturalHeight > window.innerHeight ? can.height / img.naturalHeight : can.width / img.naturalWidth;
ctx.drawImage(img, 0, 0, img.naturalWidth * factor, img.naturalHeight * factor);
}
}
window.onresize = resizeCanvas;
resizeCanvas();body {
