expo-image-filter

Note: This module is still under development. Appreaciate any feedback or contributions!
iOS only for now

Apply filters to images in React Native. Works with expo-image, uses the native shared image object for blazingly fast performance. Read the docs.

Installation

$ npx expo install expo-image-filter
$ npx pod-install

Usage

import { useImage } from "expo-image";
import {
  createCIFilter,
  setFilterValue,
  getOutputImage,
  createBase64,
} from "expo-image-filter";

function App() {
  const [imageData, setImageData] = useState<string>();
  const inputImage = useImage({ uri: uri });

  const func = async () => {
    if (inputImage) {
      const nativeFilter = await createCIFilter("CISepiaTone");
      await setFilterValue(nativeFilter, "inputImage", image);
      await setFilterValue(nativeFilter, "inputIntensity", 1);
      const outputImageRes = getOutputImage(nativeFilter, true);
      const base64Image = await createBase64FromImage(outputImageRes);
      setImageData(base64Image);
    }
  };

  return imageData ? (
    <Image
      source={{ uri: `data:image/png;base64,${imageData}` }}
      style={{ width: 100, height: 100 }}
    />
  ) : (
    <></>
  );
}

Todo / Need help with:

• Make result of getOutputImage compatible with <ExpoImage source={}>
• Make result of getOutputImage be acceptable as setImageValue for filter chaining
