I use a 3rd party library called Image Resizer. I struggled with the uploading of images and retaining quality, this library helped me out alot.
In your view:
@model YourProject.ViewModels.ProductImageUploadCreateViewModel
@using (Html.BeginForm("Upload", "ProductImage", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
{
<input type="file" name="ImageFile1" id="ImageFile1">
}
Your controller:
public class ProductImageController : Controller
{
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Upload(ProductImageUploadCreateViewModel viewModel)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
return View(viewModel);
}
if (viewModel.ImageFile1 != null)
{
UploadImage(viewModel.ProductId, "1", viewModel.ImageFile1);
}
// Return to where ever...
}
}
Your upload method:
private void UploadImage(int productId, string imageNo, HttpPostedFileBase imageFile)
{
string uploadPath = Server.MapPath("~/Assets/Images/Products/" + productId);
if (!Directory.Exists(uploadPath))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(uploadPath);
}
Dictionary<string, string> versions = new Dictionary<string, string>();
versions.Add("_m", "width=150&height=150&scale=both&format=jpg"); // Medium size
string filePrefix = productId + "_" + imageNo;
versions.Add("_s", "width=90&height=90&scale=both&format=jpg"); // Small size
versions.Add("_l", "width=300&height=300&scale=both&format=jpg"); // Large size
foreach (string fileSuffix in versions.Keys)
{
// Generate a filename
string fileName = Path.Combine(uploadPath, filePrefix + fileSuffix);
// Let the image builder add the correct extension based on the output file type
fileName = ImageBuilder.Current.Build(imageFile, fileName, new ResizeSettings(versions[fileSuffix]), false, true);
}
}
Have a look on their website, there are a couple of samples that you can work through. I hope this helps :)
