Package com.google.appengine.api.images Description

Provides facilities for the creation and manipulation of images. The starting point is the ImagesServiceFactory class, which can produce the ImagesService, but also the basic Image object and Transform classes. More information is available in the on-line documentation.

Image data is represented as a byte[] of data, in any of the supported formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF (including animated GIF), BMP, TIFF, and ICO formats. The format can be accessed via the Image.getFormat() method. The image format may be converted during transformation.

Supported transformations include cropping, resizing, rotating in 90-degree increments, horizontal and vertical flips, and automated color enhancement.
