|
||
**Watermark.Net** is an open-source .NET library for programmatically adding text and image watermarks to images. Built on [SixLabors.ImageSharp](https://github.com/SixLabors/ImageSharp), it provides a clean, extensible API for all your watermarking needs — from a single file to entire directory batches. Whether you need to protect copyrights, brand your media, or mark drafts, Watermark.Net makes image watermarking in C# simple and efficient.
|
||
|
||
### Features
|
||
|
||
- 🖼️ **Multi-format support** — JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF
|
||
- ✏️ **Text watermarks** — custom fonts, colors, sizes, rotation, and 9-zone positioning
|
||
- 🖌️ **Image watermarks** — PNG transparency, scaling, and opacity control (0.0–1.0)
|
||
- 🧱 **Pave (tiling) mode** — repeat the watermark across the entire image surface
|
||
- 🧩 **9 preset positions** — TopLeft, TopCenter, TopRight, CenterLeft, Center, CenterRight, BottomLeft, BottomCenter, BottomRight
|
||
- 🎨 **Custom styling** — background color, opacity, rotation angle, and padding
|
||
- 📁 **Batch processing** — watermark all images in a directory with a single method call
|
||
- 🔌 **Dependency injection ready** — `IFileManager` abstraction for testing and custom file I/O
|
||
- 🔄 **Backward compatible** — legacy `Watermarker` API still supported (marked as `[Obsolete]`)
|

|
||

|
||
|
||
## Quick Start
|
||
|
||
### Add a Text Watermark
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
using SixLabors.Fonts;
|
||
using SixLabors.ImageSharp;
|
||
using Watermark.Net.src.WatermarkNet.Core;
|
||
using Watermark.Net.src.WatermarkNet.Enums;
|
||
using Watermark.Net.src.WatermarkNet.Models.Definitions;
|
||
|
||
var pipeline = new WatermarkPipeline(new FileManager(), new ImageRenderer());
|
||
|
||
var watermark = new TextWatermark
|
||
{
|
||
Text = "WATERMARK",
|
||
Font = SystemFonts.CreateFont("Arial", 36),
|
||
Layout = { Position = ImagePosition.BottomRight, Scale = 0.5f },
|
||
Style = { Color = Color.White }
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
ResultImage result = pipeline.ProcessImage("input.jpg", "output", watermark);
|
||
Console.WriteLine($"Saved to: {result.Path}");
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Add an Image Watermark
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
using SixLabors.ImageSharp;
|
||
using Watermark.Net.src.WatermarkNet.Core;
|
||
using Watermark.Net.src.WatermarkNet.Enums;
|
||
using Watermark.Net.src.WatermarkNet.Models.Definitions;
|
||
|
||
var pipeline = new WatermarkPipeline(new FileManager(), new ImageRenderer());
|
||
|
||
var watermark = new ImageWatermark
|
||
{
|
||
ImagePath = "logo.png",
|
||
Layout = { Scale = 0.3f, Position = ImagePosition.Center },
|
||
Style = { Opacity = 0.7f, Pave = true }
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
List<ResultImage> results = pipeline.ProcessDirectory("images", "output", watermark);
|
||
Console.WriteLine($"Processed {results.Count} images");
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Architecture
|
||
|
||
Watermark.Net follows a clean **pipeline architecture** with clear separation of concerns:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
┌──────────────────────────────────────┐
|
||
│ WatermarkPipeline │ ← Orchestrator layer
|
||
│ (coordinates I/O and rendering) │
|
||
├──────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||
│ IFileManager / FileManager │ ← File I/O abstraction
|
||
│ (loading, saving, enumeration) │
|
||
├──────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||
│ ImageRenderer │ ← Pure rendering engine
|
||
│ (image processing, no I/O) │
|
||
└──────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
- **[`WatermarkPipeline`](Watermark.Net/src/WatermarkNet.Common/WatermarkPipeline.cs)** — the main entry point that orchestrates file operations and rendering.
|
||
- **[`IFileManager`](Watermark.Net/src/WatermarkNet.Common/IFileManager.cs)** / **[`FileManager`](Watermark.Net/src/WatermarkNet.Common/FileManager.cs)** — abstracts all file system I/O. Swap this for custom storage or unit testing.
|
||
- **[`ImageRenderer`](Watermark.Net/src/WatermarkNet.Common/ImageRenderer.cs)** — a pure image processing engine. Accepts in-memory `Image` objects, returns processed `Image` instances. No file I/O dependency.

## Advanced Usage
|
||
|
||
### Pave (Tiling) Mode
|
||
|
||
Tile the watermark across every position on the image:
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
var watermark = new TextWatermark
|
||
{
|
||
Text = "DRAFT",
|
||
Font = SystemFonts.CreateFont("Arial", 36),
|
||
Style = { Color = Color.Red, Pave = true },
|
||
Layout = { Scale = 0.3f }
|
||
};
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Opacity Control
|
||
|
||
Create a subtle, semi-transparent watermark:
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
var watermark = new ImageWatermark
|
||
{
|
||
ImagePath = "logo.png",
|
||
Style = { Opacity = 0.3f }, // 30% opacity
|
||
Layout = { Position = ImagePosition.Center, Scale = 0.5f }
|
||
};
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Custom Positioning & Rotation
|
||
|
||
Place a rotated watermark with padding:
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
var watermark = new TextWatermark
|
||
{
|
||
Text = "CONFIDENTIAL",
|
||
Font = SystemFonts.CreateFont("Arial", 24),
|
||
Layout =
|
||
{
|
||
Position = ImagePosition.TopLeft,
|
||
RotateAngle = 45,
|
||
Padding = 20
|
||
}
|
||
};
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Dependency Injection
|
||
|
||
Integrate with your DI container for better testability:
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
services.AddSingleton<IFileManager, FileManager>();
|
||
services.AddSingleton<ImageRenderer>();
|
||
services.AddTransient<WatermarkPipeline>();
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Batch Directory Processing
|
||
|
||
Process all images in a directory with a single call:
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
var results = pipeline.ProcessDirectory("input_photos", "watermarked", textWatermark);
|
||
|
||
foreach (var result in results)
|
||
{
|
||
Console.WriteLine($"✓ {result.Path}");
|
||
}
|
||
```
