I was looking for image processing modules which provide basic functionalities (resize, crop, rotate, etc) without any external dependencies. I couldn't find any. All modules out there (that I know of) depend on a local installation of ImageMagick et al.
So I started looking into rolling my own module which wraps the CImg <http://cimg.sourceforge.net/> C++ library. But then I discovered that it, too, depends on ImageMagick (at least for reading JPEGs). So my questions are: 1. Is there such a module out there? 2. If not, I would like to implement one. 1. Any suggestion about how I should go about it? 2. Which is a good C++ image library without pre-required dependencies that I can wrap? I considered OpenCV and QT's QImage, but both are quite large, and not specifically oriented towards basic image processing. I realize that installing ImageMagick on a server isn't that big a deal. But I want to use the intended module in a node-webkit <https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit/> application (client); and I don't want to tell my users to install ImageMagick before they can use my software. Thanks!
