ImageEditorRestAPI

Rotate, resize, and crop the image using REST API (ImageEditorRestAPI)

ImageGear provides REST API to process raster image by one or several ImageGear .NET image editing operations.

This example reads a raster image file to the stream and uploads it to the Accusoft API server where the image can be rotated, resized and cropped. Then, modified images are downloaded from the server and saved to a disk file.

For more information about the ImageGear .NET REST API, please refer to the ImageGear .NET Online Documentation.

System Requirements

For a list of the system and development software necessary to build and run these samples, please refer to the ImageGear .NET Online Documentation.

Building the Sample

Starting with ImageGear v26.0, ImageGear supports .NET Core.

All samples can be built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2022.

To build this sample:

1. Set environment variable ACCUSOFT_CLOUD_KEY to your Accusoft API Key. The API Key can be obtained here: Accusoft cloud web site.
2. Open the .sln file in the project directory using Visual Studio 2022.
3. Select a Solution Configuration (Debug or Release) and an available Solution Platform (x64 or Any CPU).
4. Build with Build Solution located in the Build menu.

To build this sample under Linux:

1. Install the Microsoft .NET SDK for your Linux distribution.
2. Run dotnet build ImageEditorRestAPI.sln. By default this will build the Debug Solution Configuration.

Running the Sample

When the sample is built, it produces a console application executable in the bin subdirectory. Run this application by double-clicking the application icon, or run it directly from Command Prompt (cmd.exe), PowerShell, or similar. Note that the working directory must be the same as the directory containing the sample executable in order to find the sample input image and the output directory. The input image(s) and output directory are specified relative to the location of the application in all of these samples.

To run this sample under Linux, run the sample from "bin/Debug/net6.0/" using ./ImageEditorRestAPI.

NOTE: ImageGear .NET runs in evaluation mode if started without a license. In evaluation mode, documents and images will be watermarked when exported or displayed. If you would like to work with a full-featured evaluation of the product, please contact Accusoft at info@accusoft.com.
