Wand rotate() function in Python

Rotation changes the orientation of image or it rotates image to a particular angle. rotate() takes a degree which can be 0 to 359. (Actually you can pass 360, 361, or more but it will be the same to 0, 1, or more respectively.).

Syntax :

wand.image.rotate(degree, background, reset_coords)

Parameters :

Parameter	Input Type	Description
degree	numbers.Real	a degree to rotate. multiples of 360 affect nothing
background	wand.color.Color	an optional background color. default is transparent.
reset_coords	bool	optional flag. If set, after the rotation, the coordinate frame will be relocated to the upper-left corner of the new image. By default is True.

Example 1:

Python3

# Import Image from wand.image module
from wand.image import Image

with Image(filename ="koala.jpeg") as img:
    with img.clone() as rotated:
        # rotate image using rotate() function
        rotated.rotate(90)
        rotated.save(filename ='transform-rotated-90.jpg')

Output :

Example 2:

Python3

# Import Image from wand.image module
from wand.image import Image
from wand.color import Color

with Image(filename ="koala.jpeg") as img:
    with img.clone() as rotated:
        # rotate image using rotate() function
        rotated.rotate(135, background = Color('rgb(229, 221, 112)'))
        rotated.save(filename ='transform-rotated-135.jpg')
