How to get the source image from ImageCropper
Hi there,

I'm using the imageCropper and I couldn't figure out how to get the source image, is there any to way to get it without using the json....

e.g.
```
       var jsonObject = JObject.FromObject(media.GetValue("cropper"));
                var src = jsonObject.Property("src").Value;
```
I need to get the src using "IMedia" and "IPublishedContent" is it possible ?? ... any ideas ?

Thanks,

Ale.

Hi Ale,

The source image should be available from the media.Url property if your media variable is of type IPublishedContent.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, Dan.

UmbracoHelper.TypedMedia or UmbracoHelper.Media?
I am not sure if I understand your question ;-)

For IMedia you will need to something like this (assuming "media" is IMedia)
```
using Umbraco.Web.Models

var imageCrops = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ImageCropDataSet>(media.GetValue("cropper"));
var src = imageCropDataSet.Src
```

@Dan I'm using the cropper as a "Main" image in the media type .. so when you do media.url in a normal upload field it will read the "umbracoFile" property.

in this situation, the cropper save a json with all the options... e.g.
```
{ "focalPoint": { "left": 0.23049645390070922, "top": 0.27215189873417722 }, "src": "/media/SampleImages/1063/pic01.jpg", "crops": [ { "alias": "banner", "width": 800, "height": 90 }, { "alias": "highrise", "width": 80, "height": 400 }, { "alias": "thumb", "width": 90, "height": 90 } ] }
```
so media.url will throw an exeption.

@Tobias I'm hooking in to ther saving event ... so at that point what I got is a list of IMedia.

private void MediaService_Saved(IMediaService sender, SaveEventArgs<IMedia> e)

I need to get the image src at this point using a IMedia and later I need to get the image src from an IPublishedContent becuase I'm creating a model for my "image" item.

does that make sense ??

Thanks for you awesome response time :)

Ale.

Actually you use that same method with with IPublishedContent to get the original source of the image from any Cropper Json data.

@jeavon yes, seems like this is the only way to do it is using the json...

from and IPublishedContent you can do "media.GetProperty("upload").DataValue;".

Would be great to keep the src apart of the json, this could be useful sometimes.

Thanks!

Ale.

Yes it is the only way.

For IPublishedContent I would probably not use the DataValue but get the property value as a string as there are a few additional checks in there but the result would be the same.

e.g.
```
media.GetPropertyValue<string>("upload")
```
