Class: ImageTileSource

OpenSeadragon.ImageTileSource

The ImageTileSource allows a simple image to be loaded into an OpenSeadragon Viewer. There are 2 ways to open an ImageTileSource: 1. viewer.open({type: 'image', url: fooUrl}); 2. viewer.open(new OpenSeadragon.ImageTileSource({url: fooUrl})); With the first syntax, the crossOriginPolicy and ajaxWithCredentials options are inherited from the viewer if they are not specified directly in the options object.

new ImageTileSource(options)

Parameters:
Name Type Description
options Object Options object.
Properties
Name Type Attributes Default Description
url String URL of the image
buildPyramid Boolean <optional>
 true If set to true (default), a pyramid will be built internally to provide a better downsampling.
crossOriginPolicy String | Boolean <optional>
 false Valid values are 'Anonymous', 'use-credentials', and false. If false, image requests will not use CORS preventing internal pyramid building for images from other domains.
ajaxWithCredentials String | Boolean <optional>
 false Whether to set the withCredentials XHR flag for AJAX requests (when loading tile sources).

createTileCache(cacheObject, data, tile)

Create cache object from the result of the download process. The cacheObject parameter should be used to attach the data to, there are no conventions on how it should be stored - all the logic is implemented within *TileCache() functions. Note that if you override any of *TileCache() functions, you should override all of them.

data * image data, the data sent to ImageJob.prototype.finish(), by default an Image object
tile Tile instance the cache was created with

Parameters:
Name Type Description
viewer OpenSeadragon.Viewer the viewer that is calling destroy on the ImageTileSource
Source:

destroyTileCache(cacheObject)

Cache object destructor, unset all properties you created to allow GC collection. Note that if you override any of *TileCache() functions, you should override all of them.
Parameters:

userData * <optional>
 Empty object to attach your own data and helper variables to.
finish function <optional>

y Number y coordinate of the tile
Source:

getHandler(eventName)

Parameters:
Name Type Description
eventName String Name of event to get handlers for.

getTileAjaxHeaders(level, x, y) → {Object}

Responsible for retrieving the headers which will be attached to the image request for the region specified by the given x, y, and level components. This option is only relevant if OpenSeadragon.Options.loadTilesWithAjax is set to true. The headers returned here will override headers specified at the Viewer or TiledImage level. Specifying a falsy value for a header will clear its existing value set at the Viewer or TiledImage level (if any). Note that the headers of existing tiles don't automatically change when this function returns updated headers. To do that, you need to call OpenSeadragon.Viewer#setAjaxHeaders and propagate the changes.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
level Number
x Number
y Number

Returns:
Type
Object

getTileCacheData(cacheObject) → {*}

Raw data getter Note that if you override any of *TileCache() functions, you should override all of them.
Parameters:

Type
*

getTileCacheDataAsContext2D(cacheObject) → {CanvasRenderingContext2D}

Compatibility context 2D getter - most heavily used rendering method is a canvas-based approach, convert the data to a canvas and return it's 2D context Note that if you override any of *TileCache() functions, you should override all of them.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
cacheObject object context cache object
Inherited From:
Source:
Returns:
context of the canvas representation of the cache data
Type
CanvasRenderingContext2D

getTileCacheDataAsImage(cacheObject) → {Image}

Compatibility image element getter - plugins might need image representation of the data - div HTML rendering relies on image element presence Note that if you override any of *TileCache() functions, you should override all of them.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
cacheObject object context cache object
Inherited From:
Source:
Returns:
cache data as an Image
Type
Image

getTileHashKey(level, x, y, url, ajaxHeaders, postData)

The tile cache object is uniquely determined by this key and used to lookup the image data in cache: keys should be different if images are different. In case a tile has context2D property defined (TileSource.prototype.getContext2D) or its context2D is set manually; the cache is not used and this function is irrelevant. Note: default behaviour does not take into account post data.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
level Number tile level it was fetched with
x Number x-coordinate in the pyramid level
y Number y-coordinate in the pyramid level
url String the tile was fetched with
ajaxHeaders Object the tile was fetched with
postData * data the tile was fetched with (type depends on getTilePostData(..) return type)
Inherited From:
Source:

getTileHeight(level)

Return the tileHeight for a given level. Subclasses should override this if tileHeight can be different at different levels such as in IIIFTileSource. Code should use this function rather than reading from ._tileHeight directly.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
level Number
Inherited From:
Source:

getTilePostData(level, x, y) → {*|null}

Must use AJAX in order to work, i.e. loadTilesWithAjax = true is set. If a value is returned, ajax issues POST request to the tile url. If null is returned, ajax issues GET request. The return value must comply to the header 'content type'. Examples (USED HEADER --> getTilePostData CODE): 'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' --> return "key1=value=1&key2=value2"; 'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' --> return JSON.stringify({key: "value", number: 5}); 'Content-type': 'multipart/form-data' --> let result = new FormData(); result.append("data", myData); return result; IMPORTANT: in case you move all the logic on image fetching to post data, you must re-define 'getTileHashKey(...)' to stay unique for different tile images.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
level Number
x Number
y Number
Inherited From:
Source:
Returns:
post data to send with tile configuration request
Type
* | null

getTileUrl(level, x, y)

Parameters:
Name Type Description
level Number Level of the tile

y Number y coordinate of the tile
Overrides:
Source:

getTileWidth(level)

Return the tileWidth for a given level. Subclasses should override this if tileWidth can be different at different levels such as in IIIFTileSource. Code should use this function rather than reading from ._tileWidth directly.

Name Type Description
level Number

setMaxLevel(level)
