similar to: Cropping images with RMagick after uploading with acts_as_attachment

the full-size pics upload OK, but no thumbs or resizing. There are no errors or exceptions that I can see, just not getting any thumbnails. The DB column ''thumbnail'' is always NULL rmagick-1.15.6 is freshly installed. I have the :thumbnails stuff setup per http://weblog.techno-weenie.net/articles/acts_as_attachment/thumbnailing using a model like this: class EventPic

I''m using Attachment_Fu to save several thumbnails of a photo (resizing with ImageMagick) But when I try to crop them, nothing seems to happen to the file I want to drop and no error messages. I check the file timestamp of the thumbnail I want to crop and it looks updated. What''s strange is that ALL the other thumbnails and the original image''s file timestamps are

Hello, I had a problem cropping images with file_column. These are my settings: file_column :image, :magick => { :versions => { :thumb => "80x80>", :medium => "150x150>", :square => { :crop => "1:1", :size => "50x50!" } },

I''ve tried migrating acts_as_attachment to attachment_fu (just to see if I could replace RMagick with ImageScience+FreeImage), but the quality of the thumbnails is just horrendous, blurred beyond recognition (downscaling a 1280x1024 to a few considerably smaller thumbnails). Changing attachment_fu to use RMagick again and the thumbnails were crispy sharp again. I was wondering

RMagick Image Rendering I am fairly new to Ruby on Rails and I have been trying to upload images and create thumbnails using the "Processing Uploaded Images" recipe from the Rails Recipes book. The script uses RMagick to create thumbnails of the uploaded images and saves both the uploaded images and the thumbnails in the public/uploaded_images directory. However when I upload an image,

I''ve based my code on the Agile example for uploading files, pages 362-365. I''ve successfully loaded the Picture object to the database, but I come unstuck when trying to replicate this for a thumbnail version of the original image: thumbnail = Thumbnail.new thumbnail.name = ''thumbnail_'' + @picture.name.to_s

Hi, I am using rmagick to resize a copy of uploaded images and display the copy as a thumbnail. Once the upload is processed it redirects the user to a page that should display the thumbnail to the user. The problem is that the rmagick resize function seems to keep going in the background after handing the new images url (and control) back to rails, which then happily renders the page with

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,

I''m trying to keep my rails app lean and mean and want to avoid (if possible) dealing with image uploads, thumbnail generation, running RMagick etc. I was excited about Amazon letting you upload files directly from the browser to your S3 bucket (http://doc.s3.amazonaws.com/proposals/ post.html) but I couldn''t figure out how to generate thumbnails - has anyone figured this out?

I know that Zed has made mention of the fact that using RMagick with mongrel and rails is a bad thing. I''m currently using FlexImage (which in turn uses RMagick) on my application and really haven''t had too many problems. We get a restart for memory usage every 8-10 hours on one mongrel of twelve running, but I''m not sure if that''s an RMagick issue. Either way,

Instead of making a form to upload one picture at a time, I''d like to have the File Column plugin accept a directory, and have each picture be uploaded and thumbnails created (w/ RMagick). Has anyone done this? Anyone have a good idea where to start if I were to do it on my own? Thanks, Ben Lisbakken -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m going to be generating thumbnails from user uploaded images. I''m looking around at the libraries available to do this sort of thing and there are three that look promising. ImageScience -- http://seattlerb.rubyforge.org/ImageScience.html Mini-Magick -- http://rubyforge.org/projects/mini-magick/ RMagick -- http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/ It looks like a lot of people are

Hi everyone, I have a photo site that I''m making and I''m using file_column to handle the auto-generation of several "version" of each photo: essentially thumbs and fuller-sized version. The full sized versions retain the original''s proportions, whereas the thumbs are all 4:3. This means most of the thumbs are cropping the original. This all works great, but I

I see that the SVN version of the excellent file_column plug-in can create thumbnails using the url_for_image_column helper. This uses Rmagick to create the thumbnail... Quick question... Let''s say the file is a TIFF image - can the helper create a JPG version of the thumbnail for display in the browser? Curious if the plug-in can handle that transform with some creative use of the

Hi there I am using Acts as attachment to store thumbnails in a file system. That part works fine :-) Along with my pic form I''m sending other information and I want to store that information in the thumbnail row as well as the parent image row... but I can''t figure out how to do it! The info is stored in the row that contains the original img info with no problems, but

Hi, I need to create a preview of a PDF upload to a CMS I''m building. Does anyone know how to create a thumbnail of the first page of a PDF using RMagick?

Howdy. We use the handy file_column plug-in in some of our apps. We have a model with a file field and we upload both images and non-images into this field. It is specified as follows: file_column :file_uri, :magick => {:versions => {:thumbnail => {:size => ''200x''}}} Well, it works great for images but for non-images, the save fails. The root cause is an

Hey guys, I''m getting a weird error when trying to test something like the following. It''s a model that is using acts_as_attachment but the weird thing is the equivalent Test::Unit case passes. Does anyone have any ideas? Best, Dave # it was a Test::Unit case first def test_should_be_invalid_without_file UserFile.any_instance.expects(:with_image).never

Hi, I''m brand new to RMagick (and pretty new to Rails for that matter!). Right now, site owners are allowed to upload product and ingredient photos to the website. Everything works great, ingredients are sized down and proportioned correctly...the problem is that the resulting images are so blurry! So I''ve been doing some research and it looks like Paperclip::Processor may be the

Hello friends, I have configured attachment_f. It''s working fine on Local(development) system but giving problem on production.
