# Image Processing Library

The `imageProcessingLibrary` method is used to set the image processing library for a specific attachment. It accepts a string parameter that can be either `GD` or `IMAGICK` to specify the library to use for image manipulation operations like cropping and resizing.

By default, Larupload uses the GD library for image processing, but you can override this at the attachment level by calling the `imageProcessingLibrary` method on the `Attachment` instance. This allows you to have different attachments that use different image processing libraries, depending on your needs.

Here is an example of how to use the `imageProcessingLibrary` method to set the image processing library for an attachment:

```php
<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Mostafaznv\Larupload\Enums\LaruploadImageLibrary;
use Mostafaznv\Larupload\Storage\Attachment;
use Mostafaznv\Larupload\Traits\Larupload;

class Media extends Model
{
    use Larupload;

    public function attachments(): array
    {
        return [
            Attachment::make('file')
                ->imageProcessingLibrary(LaruploadImageLibrary::GD)
        ];
    }
}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://mostafaznv.gitbook.io/larupload/advanced-usage/attachment/image-processing-library.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
