Hi, everyone! I have been recently hit by ImageMagick/Rmagick memory leak issues. I know I can lesson the problem by manually starting up GC each time I use Rmagick library but ImageMagick seems to use way too much memory nevertheless. (on shared hosting setup anyway) Is there a decent replacement for ImageMagick library? I used to think ImageMagick was quite efficient because its

Posting here is kind of a last resort: has anyone used Minimagick with Ruby on Rails, and gotten it working correctly? I hate posting a "bug" problem but I''m not if it''s *my* problem, or a problem with Imagemagick and RoR 1.0, which I just installed (upgraded from 0.13.1). Basically, when I try to run the most basic MM command in...

Thanks in Advance...

Hi there I have a helper method in my Rails app that uses Minimagick as a plugin. All is fine except for the write step where I attempt to write the resized file to another directory. I get the error: "undefined method `to_str'' for #<Array:0x25221e8>" Here''s my resizing method: def display_thumb(product_id) # glob through imag...

Hi. I''m uploading images using a standard form.

Hi! Would it be possible to use minimagick instead of rmagick with file_column plugin? Did anyone tried to change code of the plugin to make this work? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have just started using the minimagick gem, as RMagick was giving me the usual problems and eating up too much memory. So far, it works just fine except for one thing. The server allows gives me the following error: mogrify: unable to open module file `/usr/local/lib/ImageMagick-6.2.8/modules-Q16/coders/0.la'': No such file...

In the rails app I''m making, I dropped MiniMagick into the vendor folder (vendor/mini_magick). In my controller, when I call: image = MiniMagick::Image.from_file(path) ...I get a "uninitialized constant MiniMagick" error. From what I can tell, installing a plugin such as this should be as simple as dropping it into the vendor fold...

I''ve ended up doing this after the main photo model has been saved: [ @photo.public_filename, @photo.public_filename( :thumb ), @photo.public_filename( :medium ), @photo.public_filename( :large )].each do |path| path = "#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/#{path}" file = MiniMagick::Image.from_file( path ) file.combine_options do |i| i.gravity ''center'' i.bordercolor ''black'' i.border 1 i.bordercolor ''white'' i.border 10 end file.write(...

Hi, I''m using Mini Magick and that attachment_fu plugin to resize images that the user uploads. Everything looks okay in my code, but I get a core dump every time an image is uploaded. The file successfully posts to the application, I can see that the original file gets copied into the folder correctly. It appears that it dumps immediately after that. I''m using Mongrel behind

I am using BackgrounDRb to resize images after they are accepted into our system. However, it has become clear that this creates a memory leak. I''m not sure exactly where the leak exists, but I don''t think it''s in my own code as it is presently being used in production and has resized thousands of images without a leak occurring, thanks to calling GC.start

I am having issues loading imagemagick and rmagick on webfaction. I have installed a rails app called balder that organizes images. my main problem is that i can''t seem to upoload the image sthrough balder. balder uses imagemagick and rmagick when i use the console and do this: irb(main):003:0> require ''RMagick'' => nil I don''t think rmagick is

1. I have seen examples similar to the following: image = MiniMagick::Image.from_file("input.jpg") image.resize "100x100" image.write("output.jpg") I''m assuming that image.resize is a method. Is there any significance to the fact that the argument for that method is not enclosed in parenthesis while the other are? Exampl...

I'm creating a project that lets users upload images onto products and then buy the products. I'm using Carrierwave and Minimagick. I found this cylnderize script on fmwconcepts. It's a shell script. It is literally perfect for what I need as a lot of the products are mugs. Does anyone know how I might be able to convert the script into minimagick code I can use in my controller? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/....

Someone mentioned that Rmagick doesn''t work properly on this setup (Ruby 1.8.4, Rails 1.1) Is this true? -- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We just upgraded to Ruby 1.8.4 and Rails 1.1. It works fine on my Mac OSX, but in Windows, Rails spits out errors like "Invalid char `\002'' in expression". Apparently, Ruby or Rails on Windows has a problem parsing tab characters. This seems to be a common problem: http://softiesonrails.com/articles/2006/04/27/spaces-not-tabs However, the only recommended solutions seems

Hi, would anyone have any advices on the next? I allow users to upload images to my app. I''m using attachment_fu and MiniMagick. There''s two things that I''d like to do: 1- No matter what format the original file is I''d like to save it in jgp format. 2- I want to keep all images limited to say 1000px width, so resize if they are bigger. Is there a way to do that without much hassle? Thanks. --...

Hi, I need a relatively simple image api for the app I''m writing. I need to copy photos, rename them, and re-size them to put them in a standard format. I tried using RMagick/Imagemagick, but the photos would be corrupted on re-size, so I''m looking for some suggestions. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, Recently attachment_fu stopped resizing images for me. I''m puzzled because before today it was resizing them and I don''t know what''s changed. Here''s my code: class Product < ActiveRecord::Base has_attachment :content_type => :image, :storage => :file_system, :max_size => 18.megabytes,
