Features

• Opacity: the filter allows you to specify the transparency level for your watermark image

• Watermark positioning: you have several options for positioning watermarks on your images

  • Absolute: you can specify exact pixel locations for your watermark
  • Relative: you can use percentages to place your watermark
  • Corners: you can position your watermark in the corners of your images
  • Random: you can tell the filter to randomly generate a position for your watermark
  • Center: you can place watermarks in the center of the target image

• Scaling: the watermark can be scaled to cover your images or specify a scaling factor to use

• Tiling: the watermark can be tiled across your images

• Greyscale: you can convert the watermark to be greyscale before having it applied to the target image.

• Rotation: you can rotate your watermark a certain number of degrees or have the rotation be random.

Installation

First install the module, preferably in a virtual environment. It can be installed from PyPI:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install django-watermark

Setup

First of all, you must add this project to your list of INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py :

.. code-block:: python

INSTALLED_APPS += [
    "watermarker",
]

Run ./manage.py migrate. This creates the tables in your database that are necessary for operation.

Please see example application. This application is used to manually test the functionalities of this package. This also serves as a good example.

You need Django 1.4 or above to run that. It might run on older versions but that is not tested.

Upgrading from 0.1.6

Upgrading from 0.1.6 is likely to cause problems trying to apply a
migration when the tables already exist. In this case a fake migration
needs to be applied:

.. code-block:: shell

    ./manage.py migrate watermarker 0001 --fake

Configuration (optional)
------------------------

While we're in this section, I might as well mention a settings
variable that you can override: ``WATERMARK_QUALITY``. This should
be an integer between 0 and 100.  The default is 85.

By default, ``django-watermark`` obscures the original image's file
name, as the original requirements were to make it impossible to
download the watermark-less image.  As of version 0.1.6, you can set
``WATERMARK_OBSCURE_ORIGINAL`` to ``False`` in your ``setings.py`` to
make the original image file name accessible to the user.

``django-watermark`` also lets you configure how random watermark
positioning should work.  By default, a when a watermark is to be
positioned randomly, only one watermarked image will be generated.  If
you wish to generate a random position for an image's watermark on
each request, set ``WATERMARK_RANDOM_POSITION_ONCE`` to ``False`` in
your ``settings.py``.

Usage
-----

As mentioned above, you have several options when using ``django-watermark``.
The first thing you must do is load the filter for the template in which you
wish to apply watermarks to your images.

.. code-block:: html+django

    {% load watermark %}

From the Django admin, go ahead and populate your database with some watermarks
that you want to apply to your regular images.  Simply specify a name for the
watermark and upload the watermark image itself.  *It's probably not a good
idea to put commas in your watermark names.*  Watermarks should be transparent
PNG files for best results.  I can't make any guarantees that other formats
will work nicely.

The first parameter to the ``watermark`` filter _must_ be the name you
specified for the watermark in the Django admin.  You can then choose from a
few other parameters to customize the application of the watermark.  Here they
are:

* ``position`` - This one is quite customizable.  First, you can plug your
  watermark into one corner of your images by using one of ``BR``, ``BL``,
  ``TR``, and ``TL``.  These represent 'bottom-right', 'bottom-left',
  'top-right', and 'top-left' respectively.

  Alternatively, you can use relative or absolute positioning for the
  watermark.  Relative positioning uses percentages; absolute positioning uses
  exact pixels.  You can mix and match these two modes of positioning, but you
  cannot mix and match relative/absolute with the corner positioning.  When
  using relative/absolute positioning, the value for the ``position`` parameter
  is ``XxY``, where ``X`` is the left value and ``Y`` is the top value.  The
  left and top values must be separated with a lowercase ``x``.

  If you wanted your watermark image to show up in the center of any image you
  want to watermark, you would use a position parameter such as
  ``position=50%x50%`` or even ``position=C``.  If you wanted the watermark to
  show up half-way between the left and right edges of the image and 100 pixels
  from the top, you would use a position parameter such as
  ``position=50%x100``.

  Finally, you may tell the filter to generate a position for your watermark
  dynamically.  To do this, use ``position=R``.
* ``opacity`` - This parameter allows you to specify the transparency of the
  applied watermark.  The value must be an integer between 0 and 100, where 0
  is fully transparent and 100 is fully opaque.  By default, the opacity is set
  at 50%.
* ``tile`` - If you want your watermark to tile across the entire image, you
  simply specify a parameter such as ``tile=1``.
* ``scale`` - If you'd like to have the watermark as big as possible on the
  target image and fully visible, you might want to use ``scale=F``. If you
  want to specify a particular scaling factor, just use something like
  ``scale=1.43``. Scale could also be a percentage of the smallest image, the
  one to be watermarked, dimension, for example ``scale=R20%`` would scale the
  watermark to be 20% of the smallest between width and height of the target image.
* ``greyscale`` - If you want your watermark to be greyscale, you can specify
  the parameter ``greyscale=1`` and all color saturation will go away.
* ``rotation`` - Set this parameter to any integer between 0 and 359 (really
  any integer should work, but for your own sanity I recommend keeping the
  value between 0 and 359).  If you want the rotation to be random, use
  ``rotation=R`` instead of an integer.
* ``obscure`` - Set this parameter to 0 to make the original image's filename
  visible to the user.  Default is 1 (or True) to obscure the original
  filename.
* ``noalpha`` - Set this to 1 to remove any alpha introduced with the watermark
  effect, useful to force a JPEG image to remain the same, saving a lot of space,
  setting to 1 effectively converts any RGBA color space to RGB. Defalt is 1 (or True).
* ``quality`` - Set this to an integer between 0 and 100 to specify the quality
  of the resulting image.  Default is 85.
* ``random_position_once`` - Set this to 0 or 1 to specify the random
  positioning behavior for the image's watermark.  When set to 0, the watermark
  will be randomly placed on each request.  When set to 1, the watermark will
  be positioned randomly on the first request, and subsequent requests will use
  the produced image.  Default is ``True`` (random positioning only happens on
  first request).

Examples
~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: html+django

    {{ image_url|watermark:"My Watermark,position=br,opacity=35" }}

Looks for a watermark named "My Watermark", place it in the bottom-right corner of the target image, using a 35% transparency level.

.. code-block:: html+django

    {{ image_url|watermark:"Your Watermark,position=tl,opacity=75" }}

Looks for a watermark named "Your Watermark", place it in the top-left corner of the target image, using a 75% transparency level.

.. code-block:: html+django

    {{ image_url|watermark:"The Watermark,position=43%x80%,opacity=40" }}

Looks for a watermark named "The Watermark", places it at 43% on the x-axis and 80% of the y-axis of the target image, at a transparency level of 40%.

.. code-block:: html+django

    {{ image_url|watermark:"The Watermark,position=R,opacity=10,rotation=45" }}

Looks for a watermark named "The Watermark", randomly generates a position for it, at a transparency level of 10%, rotated 45 degrees.

.. code-block:: html+django

    {{ image_url|watermark:"w00t,opacity=40,tile=1" }}

Looks for a watermark called "w00t", tiles it across the entire target image, at a transparency level of 40%.
