- (UIImage *)getSubImage:(CGRect) rect{
    CGImageRef subImageRef = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(self.CGImage, rect);
    CGRect smallBounds = CGRectMake(rect.origin.x, rect.origin.y, CGImageGetWidth(subImageRef), CGImageGetHeight(subImageRef));

// WTF: Don't forget that the CGImageCreateWithImageInRect believes that 
// the image is 180 rotated, so x and y are inverted, same for height and width.
CGRect cropRect = CGRectMake(startCroppingPosition, padding, pictureSize, pictureSize);

我所见过的大多数响应只处理(x, y)的位置(0,0)。好吧，这是一种情况，但我希望我的裁剪操作居中。我花了一些时间才弄清楚WTF注释后面的那行。

让我们以纵向捕获的图像为例:

原始图像的高度高于它的宽度(哇，到目前为止还没有什么奇怪的!) CGImageCreateWithImageInRect方法在它自己的世界中想象的图像并不是一个真正的肖像，而是一个景观(这也是为什么如果你不使用imageWithCGImage构造函数中的方向参数，它将显示为180旋转)。 你可以把它想象成一个横向，(0,0)位置是图像的右上角。

希望这是有意义的!如果没有，尝试不同的值，你会发现在为你的cropRect选择正确的x、y、宽度和高度时，逻辑是颠倒的。

在Swift中裁剪UIImage的最佳解决方案，在精度方面，像素缩放…:

private func squareCropImageToSideLength(let sourceImage: UIImage,
    let sideLength: CGFloat) -> UIImage {
        // input size comes from image
        let inputSize: CGSize = sourceImage.size

        // round up side length to avoid fractional output size
        let sideLength: CGFloat = ceil(sideLength)

        // output size has sideLength for both dimensions
        let outputSize: CGSize = CGSizeMake(sideLength, sideLength)

        // calculate scale so that smaller dimension fits sideLength
        let scale: CGFloat = max(sideLength / inputSize.width,
            sideLength / inputSize.height)

        // scaling the image with this scale results in this output size
        let scaledInputSize: CGSize = CGSizeMake(inputSize.width * scale,
            inputSize.height * scale)

        // determine point in center of "canvas"
        let center: CGPoint = CGPointMake(outputSize.width/2.0,
            outputSize.height/2.0)

        // calculate drawing rect relative to output Size
        let outputRect: CGRect = CGRectMake(center.x - scaledInputSize.width/2.0,
            center.y - scaledInputSize.height/2.0,
            scaledInputSize.width,
            scaledInputSize.height)

        // begin a new bitmap context, scale 0 takes display scale
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(outputSize, true, 0)

        // optional: set the interpolation quality.
        // For this you need to grab the underlying CGContext
        let ctx: CGContextRef = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()
        CGContextSetInterpolationQuality(ctx, kCGInterpolationHigh)

        // draw the source image into the calculated rect
        sourceImage.drawInRect(outputRect)

        // create new image from bitmap context
        let outImage: UIImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()

        // clean up
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

        // pass back new image
        return outImage
}

调用此函数的指令:

let image: UIImage = UIImage(named: "Image.jpg")!
let squareImage: UIImage = self.squareCropImageToSideLength(image, sideLength: 320)
self.myUIImageView.image = squareImage

注意:最初的源代码灵感是用Objective-C写的，可以在Cocoanetics博客上找到。

在iOS9.2SDK上，我使用下面的方法将帧从UIView转换为UIImage

-(UIImage *)getNeedImageFrom:(UIImage*)image cropRect:(CGRect)rect
{
  CGSize cropSize = rect.size;
  CGFloat widthScale = image.size.width/self.imageViewOriginal.bounds.size.width;
  CGFloat heightScale = image.size.height/self.imageViewOriginal.bounds.size.height;
  cropSize = CGSizeMake(rect.size.width*widthScale, 
              rect.size.height*heightScale);
  CGPoint pointCrop = CGPointMake(rect.origin.x*widthScale,
             rect.origin.y*heightScale);
  rect = CGRectMake(pointCrop.x, pointCrop.y, cropSize.width, cropSize.height);
  CGImageRef subImage = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(image.CGImage, rect);
  UIImage *croppedImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:subImage];
  CGImageRelease(subImage);

  return croppedImage;
}

以下是基于面条回答的Swift 3更新版本

func cropping(to rect: CGRect) -> UIImage? {

    if let cgCrop = cgImage?.cropping(to: rect) {
        return UIImage(cgImage: cgCrop)
    }
    else if let ciCrop = ciImage?.cropping(to: rect) {
        return UIImage(ciImage: ciCrop)
    }

    return nil
}

 (UIImage *)squareImageWithImage:(UIImage *)image scaledToSize:(CGSize)newSize {
    double ratio;
    double delta;
    CGPoint offset;

    //make a new square size, that is the resized imaged width
    CGSize sz = CGSizeMake(newSize.width, newSize.width);

    //figure out if the picture is landscape or portrait, then
    //calculate scale factor and offset
    if (image.size.width > image.size.height) {
        ratio = newSize.width / image.size.width;
        delta = (ratio*image.size.width - ratio*image.size.height);
        offset = CGPointMake(delta/2, 0);
    } else {
        ratio = newSize.width / image.size.height;
        delta = (ratio*image.size.height - ratio*image.size.width);
        offset = CGPointMake(0, delta/2);
    }

    //make the final clipping rect based on the calculated values
    CGRect clipRect = CGRectMake(-offset.x, -offset.y,
                                 (ratio * image.size.width) + delta,
                                 (ratio * image.size.height) + delta);


    //start a new context, with scale factor 0.0 so retina displays get
    //high quality image
    if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector:@selector(scale)]) {
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(sz, YES, 0.0);
    } else {
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(sz);
    }
    UIRectClip(clipRect);
    [image drawInRect:clipRect];
    UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return newImage;
