   Hi again,

   I'm trying to integrate Croppie image editor to:
   

   1. select an image (profile photo of mydbr user) pre-upload to html/js canvas
   2. load it into Croppie for editing (crop/rotate/aspect ratio, etc)
   3. only after edited, upload it to the server
   
   

   Before I dive in and waste hours of time on the wrong approach, would the best approach be to:
   

   1. Build a php plugin for this OR
   2. Load the JS libraries for this into a normal mydbr page OR
   3. something else?
   
   

   Any guidance is appreciated!

   Duane,
   the Croppie itself can be loaded inside the report (plain JS), but as you need to upload the image to the server, you will need the server side code. So, the best approach would be to make a myDBR extension for it.

   Thanks! I'll give that a go. Would you like the extension to include with myDBR when it is ready?

   If not directly, then mabye as an add-on if other users find it useful.

   The code that is included in myDBR needs be maintened years to come. That includes also the external libraries.

   Hi Duane.

   We would be highly interested in something like this and potentially willing to add and share features in the future.

   Best regards,

   Hi Maron.

   OK. Will let you know when I have a first version. I may use Toast UI instead of Croppie mainly because it has more features, but each has features I want to use in different projects. I'll also be trying the same with jsPDF to generate PDF files in the browser before uploading.

   I'll announce more on this thread.

   Hi Duane.

   Did you have any luck with creating an extension for Toast UI Image editing?

   Best regards,

   Maron
