    viewport: {
        width: 150,
        height: 200
    }
});
basic.croppie('bind', {
    url: 'demo/cat.jpg',
    points: [77,469,280,739]
});
//on button click
basic.croppie('result', 'html').then(function(html) {
    // html is div (overflow hidden)
    // with img positioned inside.
});

Vanilla Example

var el = document.getElementById('vanilla-demo');
var vanilla = new Croppie(el, {
    viewport: { width: 100, height: 100 },
    boundary: { width: 300, height: 300 },
    showZoomer: false,
    enableOrientation: true
});
vanilla.bind({
    url: 'demo/demo-2.jpg',
    orientation: 4
});
//on button click
vanilla.result('blob').then(function(blob) {
    // do something with cropped blob
});
Upload Example (with exif orientation compatability)

$uploadCrop = $('#upload-demo').croppie({
    enableExif: true,
    viewport: {
        width: 300,
        height: 300,
        type: 'circle'
    },
    boundary: {
        width: 400,
        height: 400
    }
});
Upload
Upload a file to start cropping
Hidden Example

When binding a croppie element that isn't visible, i.e., in a modal - you'll need to call bind again on your croppie element, to indicate to croppie that the position has changed and it needs to recalculate its points.


$('#hidden-demo').croppie('bind')
