Imagick::sparseColorImage

(PECL imagick 2 >= 2.3.0, PECL imagick 3)

Imagick::sparseColorImage — Interpolates colors

Description

public Imagick::sparseColorImage(int $SPARSE_METHOD, array $arguments, int $channel = Imagick::CHANNEL_DEFAULT): bool

Given the arguments array containing numeric values this method interpolates the colors found at those coordinates across the whole image using sparse_method. This method is available if Imagick has been compiled against ImageMagick version 6.4.5 or newer.

Parameters

SPARSE_METHOD: Refer to this list of sparse method constants
arguments: An array containing the coordinates. The array is in format array(1,1, 2,45)
channel: Provide any channel constant that is valid for your channel mode. To apply to more than one channel, combine channel constants using bitwise operators. Defaults to Imagick::CHANNEL_DEFAULT. Refer to this list of channel constants

Return Values

Returns true on success.

Errors/Exceptions

Throws ImagickException on error.

Example #6 createGradientImage is used by other examples. Imagick::sparseColorImage()

<?php
function createGradientImage($width, $height, $colorPoints, $sparseMethod, $absolute = false) {

$imagick = new \Imagick();
$imagick->newImage($width, $height, "white");
$imagick->setImageFormat("png");

$barycentricPoints = array();

    foreach ($colorPoints as $colorPoint) {

        if ($absolute == true) {
$barycentricPoints[] = $colorPoint[0];
$barycentricPoints[] = $colorPoint[1];
        }
        else {
$barycentricPoints[] = $colorPoint[0] * $width;
$barycentricPoints[] = $colorPoint[1] * $height;
        }

        if (is_string($colorPoint[2])) {
$imagickPixel = new \ImagickPixel($colorPoint[2]);
        }
        else if ($colorPoint[2] instanceof \ImagickPixel) {
$imagickPixel = $colorPoint[2];
        }
        else{
$errorMessage = sprintf(
"Value %s is neither a string nor an ImagickPixel class. Cannot use as a color.",
$colorPoint[2]
            );

            throw new \InvalidArgumentException(
$errorMessage
);
        }

$red = $imagickPixel->getColorValue(\Imagick::COLOR_RED);
$green = $imagickPixel->getColorValue(\Imagick::COLOR_GREEN);
$blue = $imagickPixel->getColorValue(\Imagick::COLOR_BLUE);
$alpha = $imagickPixel->getColorValue(\Imagick::COLOR_ALPHA);

$barycentricPoints[] = $red;
$barycentricPoints[] = $green;
$barycentricPoints[] = $blue;
$barycentricPoints[] = $alpha;
    }

$imagick->sparseColorImage($sparseMethod, $barycentricPoints);

For those curious how to use sparseColorImage() directly without the seperate createGradientImage() function.. here is the format of the array used:

Array ( 
[0]  => 0   // X1 (X coordinate value #1)
[1]  => 0   // Y1 (Y coordinate value #1)
[2]  => 1   // R (red value between 0 and 1)
[3]  => 0   // G (green value between 0 and 1)
[4]  => 0   // B (blue value between 0 and 1)
[5]  => 1   // A (alpha value between 0 and 1)
[6]  => 400 // X2 
[7]  => 0   // Y2 
[8]  => 0   // R 
[9]  => 1   // G 
[10] => 0   // B 
[11] => 1   // A
[12] => 0   // X3 
[13] => 400 // Y3 
[14] => 1   // R 
[15] => 1   // G 
[16] => 0   // B 
[17] => 1   // A 
[18] => 400 // X4
[19] => 400 // Y4
[20] => 0   // R 
[21] => 0   // G 
[22] => 1   // B 
[23] => 1   // A 
)

<?php

$imagick = new imagick();
$imagick->newImage(400,400,"white");
$imagick->setImageFormat("png");

$array = Array(0,0,1,0,0,1,400,0,0,1,0,1,0,400,1,1,0,1,400,400,0,0,1,1);
$imagick->sparseColorImage(imagick::SPARSECOLORMETHOD_BILINEAR,$array);

header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $imagick->getImageBlob();

?>
