Imagine is an object-oriented image manipulation library for PHP, inspired by Python's PIL. It provides a unified API over GD2, Imagick, and Gmagick for resizing, cropping, drawing, masking, and applying filters to images.
Use cases
- resize and crop images in php
- generate thumbnails with php
- unified api over gd and imagemagick in php
- draw shapes and write text on images in php
- apply image masks for transparency
- auto-rotate images based on exif data
When to choose
- you need a consistent OO image API across multiple PHP image drivers
- you want drawing, masking, and manipulation without touching driver-specific code
- your project runs on PHP 7.1+ and uses composer
When to avoid
- you need cutting-edge image processing like deep-learning-based enhancement
- you work outside PHP
- you only need a single driver and prefer its native API directly
