getimagesize

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

getimagesize — Ermittelt die Größe einer Grafik

Beschreibung

array getimagesize ( string $filename [, array &$imageinfo ] )

Die Funktion getimagesize() ermittelt die Dimensionen der übergebenen Grafik-Datei. Es werden die Ausmaße in Abhängigkeit vom Grafik-Typ sowie die Höhe und Breite als ein String zurückgegeben. Dieser kann innerhalb eines regulären HTML IMG-Tags verwendet werden. Ausserdem wird der entsprechende HTTP Content-Type zurückgegeben.

getimagesize() kann im Parameter imageinfo weitere Informationen liefern.

Hinweis: Beachten Sie daß JPC und JP2 aus Komponenten mit verschiedener Farbtiefe bestehen können. In diesem Fall entspricht der Wert für "bits" dem höchsten gefundenen Wert. Des weiteren können JP2-Dateien mehrere JPEG 2000 Codestreams enthalten. In diesem Fall wird getimagesize() Werte entsprechend des ersten gefundenen Codestreams zurückgeben.

Hinweis: Informationen über Icons werden für das Icon mit der höchsten Bitrate ermittelt.

Parameter-Liste

filename

Die zu überprüfende Datei. Dabei kann es sich um eine lokale Datei oder, eine entsprechende Konfiguration vorausgesetzt, um eine entfernte Datei handeln die über einen unterstützen Stream gelesen wird.

imageinfo

Dieser optionale Parameter erlaubt es, erweiterte Informationen aus der Datei zu ermitteln. Momentan werden die verschiedenen JPG APP Markierungen als assoziatives Array zurückgegeben. Diese Markierungen werden von einigen Programmen verwendet um Textinformationen in Grafiken zu speichern. Gebräuchlich ist die Einbettung von IPTC » http://www.iptc.org/ Informationen in die APP13-Markierung. Sie können iptcparse() benutzen, um die binäre APP13-Markierung in ein lesbares Format zu übertragen.

Rückgabewerte

Gibt ein Array mit fünf Elementen zurück.

Index 0 und 1 enthalten Breite respektive Höhe der Grafik.

Hinweis: Einige Formate enthalten keine oder mehrere Grafiken. In diesen Fällen ist getimagesize() möglicherweise nicht in der Lage, die Dimensionen zu ermitteln; der Rückgabewert für Breite und Höhe in ist in diesen Fällen 0.

Index 2 ist eine der IMAGETYPE_XXX-Konstanten entsprechend des Typs der Grafik.

Index 3 ist eine Zeichenkette mit dem Attributen Breite und Höhe in der Form height="yyy" width="xxx" zur Verwendung in einem IMG-Tag.

mime entspricht dem MIME-Type der Grafik. Diese Information kann zur Auslieferung von Grafiken mit dem entsprechenden HTTP Content-type-Header dienen.

Beispiel #1 getimagesize() und MIME-Type

<?php
$size 
getimagesize($filename);
$fp fopen($filename"rb");
if (
$size && $fp) {
    
header("Content-type: {$size['mime']}");g
    fpassthru
($fp);
    exit;
} else {
    
// Fehler
}
?>

channels hat für RGB-Grafiken den Wert 3, für CMYK den Wert 4. bits entspricht der Anzahl der Bits pro Farbe. Allerdings kann diese Angabe für einige Formate irreführend sein. GIF nutzt immer drei Kanäle pro Pixel, aber die Anzahl der Bits pro Pixel kann für ein animiertes GIF mit einer globalen Farbtabelle nicht errechnet werden.

Gibt im Falle eines Fehlers FALSE zurück.

Fehler/Exceptions

Wenn ein Zugriff auf die mit filename angegebene Grafik nicht möglich ist oder es sich um keine valide Grafik handelt wird ein Fehler vom Typ E_WARNING generiert. Bei einem Lesefehler wird ein Fehler vom Typ E_NOTICE erzeugt.

ChangeLog

Version Beschreibung
5.3.0 Unterstützung für Icons
5.2.3 Lesefehler erzeugen eine E_NOTICE statt einer E_WARNING.
4.3.2 Unterstützung für JPC, JP2, JPX, JB2, XBM und WBMP wurde hinzugefügt.
4.3.2 Der Parameter imageinfo unterstützt JPEG2000
4.3.0 bits und channels sind auch für andere Grafik-Formate verfügbar
4.3.0 mime wurde hinzugefügt.
4.3.0 Unterstützung für SWC wurde hinzugefügt.
4.2.0 Unterstützung für TIFF wurde hinzugefügt.
4.0.5 Unterstützung für URLs wurde hinzugefügt.

Beispiele

Beispiel #2 getimagesize (Datei)

<?php
list($width$height$type$attr) = getimagesize("img/flag.jpg");
echo 
"<img src=\"img/flag.jpg\" $attr alt=\"getimagesize() example\" />";
?>

Beispiel #3 getimagesize (URL)

<?php
$size 
getimagesize("http://www.example.com/gifs/logo.gif");

// if the file name has space in it, encode it properly
$size getimagesize("http://www.example.com/gifs/lo%20go.gif");

?>

Beispiel #4 getimagesize() gibt IPTC zurück

<?php
$size 
getimagesize("testimg.jpg"$info);
if (isset(
$info["APP13"])) {
    
$iptc iptcparse($info["APP13"]);
    
var_dump($iptc);
}
?>

Anmerkungen

Hinweis: Die Funktion getimagesize() benötigt nicht die GD-Bibliothek.

there are many snippets here trying to scale an image keeping aspect ratio, I believe every single one is wrong!

I know very often everybody wants to make thumbnails.

this is what I come up with, it's a modified version from what I got from http://asymptomatic.net/2007/05/08/2608/create-thumbnail-in-php

Great script shmohel, a bit more minified...

<?php

function scale_image($p,$mw='',$mh='') { // path max_width max_height
   
if(list($w,$h) = @getimagesize($p)) {
    foreach(array(
'w','h') as $v) { $m = "m{$v}";
        if(${
$v} > ${$m} && ${$m}) { $o = ($v == 'w') ? 'h' : 'w';
       
$r = ${$m} / ${$v}; ${$v} = ${$m}; ${$o} = ceil(${$o} * $r); } }
    return(
"<img src='{$p}' alt='image' width='{$w}' height='{$h}' />"); }

Could be useful (didn´t know where to post it):

function getImageErrors( $filename, $type = "", $minWidth = 0, $minHeight = 0, $maxWidth = 0, $maxHeight = 0, $maxFileSize = 0 )
{
    $errors = array();
    if ( file_exists( $filename ) )
    {
        $ending = substr( $filename, strpos( $filename, "." ) );
        if ( is_array( $type ) )
        {
            $isTypeOf = false;
            foreach( $type as $eachtype )
            {
                if ( $ending == $eachtype )
                {
                    $isTypeOf = true;
                }
            }
            if ( ! $isTypeOf )
            {
                $errors[ 'type' ] = $ending;
            }
        }
        elseif ( $type != "" )
        {
            if ( $ending != $type )
            {
                $errors[ 'type' ] = $ending;
            }
        }
        $size = getimagesize( $filename );
        if ( $size[ 0 ] < $minWidth )
        {
            $errors[ 'minWidth' ] = $size[ 0 ];
        }
        if ( $size[ 1 ] < $minHeight )

Well, I am making a script which will resize the image when uploaded, however, i am making a multi-uploader, so i came across with a problem: an efficient way of getting a pictures height and width and storing them in an array to resize later. This is what i came up with:

<?php
$links
= array("test1.jpg", "test2.png");
$sizearray = array();
$count = count($links);
for(
$i = 0; $i < $count; $i++) {
   
$size = getimagesize($links[$i]);
    list(
$width, $height) = $size;
   
$sizearray[$links[$i]] = array("width" => $width, "height" => $height);
}
print_r($sizearray);
// which will print out: Array ( [test1.jpg] => Array ( [width] => 300 [height] => 400 ) [test2.png] => Array ( [width] => 680 [height] => 100 ) )
?>

Rather than making a lengthy function that essentially runs twice (once as width, once as height) I came up with a helpful function that uses variable variables to set a maximum height/width. Hope someone finds this helpful.

function scaleimage($location, $maxw=NULL, $maxh=NULL){
    $img = @getimagesize($location);
    if($img){
        $w = $img[0];
        $h = $img[1];

        $dim = array('w','h');
        foreach($dim AS $val){
            $max = "max{$val}";
            if(${$val} > ${$max} && ${$max}){
                $alt = ($val == 'w') ? 'h' : 'w';
                $ratio = ${$alt} / ${$val};
                ${$val} = ${$max};
                ${$alt} = ${$val} * $ratio;
            }
        }

        return("<img src='{$location}' alt='image' width='{$w}' height='{$h}' />");
    }
}

Correction: to find $y2 it should be...

// set y side to a proportional size
$y2 = $m * $x_max; // not $x1

Thanks Norbert =)

Seems the various ways people are trying to proportionaly scale an image, up or down, could be more straight forward if one remembers ones algebra.

The formula is, y = mx, where m is the slope of the line. This is the ratio of y:x or m = y/x.

So if...

// max values for x and y
$y_max = 600;
$x_max = 800;

// image size
$y1 = 2000;
$x1 = 3000;

// use width for scaling
if ($x1 > $x_max)
{
    // find slope
    $m = $y1/$x1;
    // set x side to max
    $x2 = $x_max;
    // set y side to a proportional size
    $y2 = $m * $x1;
}

The new image proportionally scaled will be x2 = 800, y2 = 533 (rounded).

To do it from the y side, simply reverse the x's and y's.

It's always good to check out an image's dimensions while attempting to upload to your server or database...especially if it's going to be displayed on a page that doesn't accomodate images beyond a particular size.

<?php

$tmpName
= $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
       
list(
$width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($tmpName);

if(
$width>275 || $height>275)
{
die(
"exceeded image dimension limits.");
}

In reply to John (http://de.php.net/manual/de/function.getimagesize.php#61514):
list will only work with numeric arrays.

<?php
 
//renumber
 
$my_image = array_values(getimagesize('test.jpg'));
 
//use list on new array
 
list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = $my_image;

 
//view new array
 
print_r($my_image);

 
//spit out content
 
echo 'Attribute: '.$attr.'<br />';
  echo
'Width: '.$width.'<br />';

an alternative to the three options below for finding the width and height of data you know to be an image:

$image = imagecreatefromstring($mydata);
$width = imagesx($image);
$height = imagesy($image);

I was trying to workaround with the problem of getting the mime type of the image from the raw data (the images data is stored in a database and the mime type is not known in advance). Since getimagesize requires a file name, there are some ways to deal with it:
1. call getimagesize with a URL which points to the image - this is too slow.
2. use PHP file i/o wrapper class.
3. use temporary files. The code for #3 could be as follows:

    function getimagesize_raw($data){
        $cwd = getcwd(); #get current working directory
        $tempfile = tempnam("$cwd/tmp", "temp_image_");#create tempfile and return the path/name (make sure you have created tmp directory under $cwd
        $temphandle = fopen($tempfile, "w");#open for writing
        fwrite($temphandle, $data); #write image to tempfile
        fclose($temphandle);
        $imagesize = getimagesize($tempfile); #get image params from the tempfile
        unlink($tempfile); // this removes the tempfile
        return $imagesize;
}

In addition to thomporter's quick-reference of the output array, here's what PHP 4.4.0 does:

Array[0] = Width
Array[1] = Height
Array[2] = Image Type Flag
Array[3] = width="xxx" height="xxx"
Array[bits] = bits
Array[channels] = channels
Array[mime] = mime-type

There is no chance of getting the mime-type by accessing Array[6]...

For those of you who are confused about what the mime type IE displays image/pjpeg and other browsers image/jpeg and are building in checks for all of your scripts to tell the difference i would suggest using the getimagesize() mime results which will always be image/jpeg regardless what browser you use.

<?php
$info
= getimagesize("image.jpg");
foreach(
$info as $key => $value) {
    echo
$key . ' - ' . $value . '<br />';
}
?>

Where it says mime always is image/jpeg

I was coming here to see if there was a simple way to get the height, width, and mime type of an image I have uploaded and while I thought the following code would work because it is printed above
<?php
list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize("img/flag.jpg");
?>

it didnt when I tried to echo out $type; so heres my fix, there may be a better way but it works for me!

<?php
$blah
= getimagesize("folder/file.gif");
$type = $blah['mime'];
$width = $blah[0];
$height = $blah[1];
?>

and then you can just echo out one of the variables about to get whichever you would desire.

getimagesize() seems to cache the results, so if you resize an image (using the methods described earlier) and you want to re-read its width and height, use imagesx() and imagesy() to get the actual information.

This is a useful function to display a thumbnail of a whatever image.
This piece of code has been lightly modified from an example found on <b>NYPHP.ORG</B>.
This function can build a thumbnail of any size you want and display it on your browser!
Hope it can be useful for you guys!

<?php

function makeThumbnail($o_file, $t_ht = 100) {
   
$image_info = getImageSize($o_file) ; // see EXIF for faster way
   
   
switch ($image_info['mime']) {
        case
'image/gif':
            if (
imagetypes() & IMG_GIF)  { // not the same as IMAGETYPE
               
$o_im = imageCreateFromGIF($o_file) ;
            } else {
               
$ermsg = 'GIF images are not supported<br />';
            }
            break;
        case
'image/jpeg':
            if (
imagetypes() & IMG_JPG)  {
               
$o_im = imageCreateFromJPEG($o_file) ;
            } else {
               
$ermsg = 'JPEG images are not supported<br />';
            }
            break;
        case
'image/png':
            if (
imagetypes() & IMG_PNG)  {
               
$o_im = imageCreateFromPNG($o_file) ;
            } else {
               
$ermsg = 'PNG images are not supported<br />';
            }
            break;
        case
'image/wbmp':
            if (
imagetypes() & IMG_WBMP)  {
               
$o_im = imageCreateFromWBMP($o_file) ;
            } else {
               
$ermsg = 'WBMP images are not supported<br />';
            }
            break;
        default:
           
$ermsg = $image_info['mime'].' images are not supported<br />';
            break;
    }
   
    if (!isset(
$ermsg)) {
       
$o_wd = imagesx($o_im) ;
       
$o_ht = imagesy($o_im) ;
       
// thumbnail width = target * original width / original height
       
$t_wd = round($o_wd * $t_ht / $o_ht) ;

       
$t_im = imageCreateTrueColor($t_wd,$t_ht);
       
       
imageCopyResampled($t_im, $o_im, 0, 0, 0, 0, $t_wd, $t_ht, $o_wd, $o_ht);
       
       
imageJPEG($t_im);
       
       
imageDestroy($o_im);
       
imageDestroy($t_im);
    }
    return isset(
$ermsg)?$ermsg:NULL;
}
?>

Here the code to call the function:

<?

header
("Content-type: image/jpeg");
makeThumbnail("http://it2.php.net/images/php.gif", 300);

?>

To solve the problem with using absolute site filepaths, as experienced by Brian:

$size = getimagesize($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"].$file);

(where $file is something like "/rootdir/graphics/photo.jpg")

Note that the canvas of a Flash movie can not be empty for getimagesize() to read the dimensions of an SWF. Not sure if this is a bug, a feature or just a limitation of the SWF format.

Flash version does not seem to matter. Also tested with Flash 8 beta.

I needed a quick way to make a group of images uniformly sized, but only on one page.  So creating a new set of thumbnails was overdoing the whole thing.  I made up this script that seems to do the trick.

<?php
     $image
"absolute/path/to/image/image.jpg";               
    
$size = getimagesize("$image");
      
$height = $size[1];
      
$width = $size[0];
     if (
$height > 150)
          {
              
$height = 150;
              
$percent = ($size[1] / $height);
              
$width = ($size[0] / $percent);
          }
     else if (
$width > 150)
          {
              
$width = 150;
              
$percent = ($size[0] / $width);
              
$height = ($size[1] / $percent);
          }
     echo
"<img src\"image/path/image.jpg\" height=\"$height\" width=\"$width\" />";

I've wrote this piece of useful code.
May be it will be useful for you.
But i got a problem - if source image is in the area with need of authorization then the functions that read some files from that place (i.e. getimagesize, imagejpeg) does not work!
How to solve it?

<?php
//i't a stand-alone file named resize.php
//the feature is caching
// /image/thumbcache folder is used with file name forming by md5($img.$calc_width.$calc_height);
//it gets such parameters:
//img - image address (URL)
//w - optional width
//h - optional height
//if you set either w or h, then the image is resized proportionaly, according to the source
//if you set neither w nor h then the script just output file
//if you set both w or h then the image will be resized exactly how you want

   
$server_root = 'http://'.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].'/';

    if (isset(
$_GET['img']) && ((isset($_GET['w']) || isset($_GET['h'])))

//check cache
       
$hash = md5($img.$w.$h);
       
$pos = strrpos($img,".");

$fname = $hash.'.'.$ext;
       
$cachedim = @imagecreatefromjpeg($serverroot.'images/thumbcache/'.$fname);
        if (
$cachedim) //just show cached thumbnail
       
{

A simple piece of code i wrote to proportionally resize an image to a max height and width then display it

<?php
// Max height and width
$max_width = 100;
$max_height = 100;

// Path to your jpeg

$upfile '/path/to/file.jpg';
   
Header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
   
   
$size = GetImageSize($upfile); // Read the size
         
$width = $size[0];
         
$height = $size[1];
         
         
// Proportionally resize the image to the
          // max sizes specified above
         
         
$x_ratio = $max_width / $width;
         
$y_ratio = $max_height / $height;

          if( (
$width <= $max_width) && ($height <= $max_height) )
          {
              
$tn_width = $width;
              
$tn_height = $height;
          }
          elseif ((
$x_ratio * $height) < $max_height)
          {
              
$tn_height = ceil($x_ratio * $height);
              
$tn_width = $max_width;
          }
          else
          {
              
$tn_width = ceil($y_ratio * $width);
              
$tn_height = $max_height;
          }
    
// Increase memory limit to support larger files
    
    
ini_set('memory_limit', '32M');
    
    
// Create the new image!
    
$src = ImageCreateFromJpeg($upfile);
    
$dst = ImageCreateTrueColor($tn_width, $tn_height);
    
ImageCopyResized($dst, $src, 0, 0, 0, 0, $tn_width, $tn_height, $width, $height);
    
ImageJpeg($dst);
// Destroy the images
ImageDestroy($src);
ImageDestroy($dst);

How about this for cropping images...

<?php

$imgfile
= "img.jpg";
$cropStartX = 300;
$cropStartY = 250;
$cropW   = 200;
$cropH   = 200;

// Create two images
$origimg = imagecreatefromjpeg($imgfile);
$cropimg = imagecreatetruecolor($cropW,$cropH);

// Get the original size
list($width, $height) = getimagesize($imgfile);

// Crop
imagecopyresized($cropimg, $origimg, 0, 0, $cropStartX, $cropStartY, $width, $height, $width, $height);

// TODO: write code to save new image
// or, just display it like this:
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($cropimg);

// destroy the images
imagedestroy($cropimg);
imagedestroy($origimg);

?>

Heres a easy way to scale images to the <td> that they are in
*this is broken up so anyone can understand it :)

<?
$imageinfo
= getimagesize("images/picture.jpg");
         
$ix=$imageinfo[0];
$iy=$imageinfo[1];

$widthscale = $ix/175//<TD> WIDTH
$heightscale = $iy/175; //<TD> HEIGHT

if($widthscale < 1)
$nwidth = $ix*$widthscale;
else
$nwidth = $ix/$widthscale;

if(
$heightscale < 1)
$nheight = $iy*$heightscale;
else
$nheight = $iy/$heightscale;

?>

Note that, if you're going to be a good programmer and use named constatnts (IMAGETYPE_JPEG) rather than their values (2), you want to use the IMAGETYPE variants - IMAGETYPE_JPEG, IMAGETYPE GIF, IMAGETYPE_PNG, etc.  For some reason, somebody made a horrible decision, and IMG_PNG is actually 4 in my version of PHP, while IMAGETYPE_PNG is 3.  It took me a while to figure out why comparing the type against IMG_PNG was failing...

This is just to add to the comment by robertks at hotmail dot com on
05-Mar-2003 12:12 regarding trying to derive the dimensions of a video file. The package referenced (http://www.getid3.org/) had been updated, and below is a script I use to get the size. You can get many other attributes of media files as well.

<?php
// include getID3() library (can be in a different directory if full path is specified)
 
include_once('getid3.php');
 
// Initialize getID3 engine
$getID3 = new getID3;

 
// File to get info from
 
$file_location = './your/path/to/file.mov';

// Get information from the file
 
$fileinfo = $getID3->analyze($file_location);
 
getid3_lib::CopyTagsToComments($fileinfo);
 
 
// Output results
if (!empty($fileinfo['video'][
