similar to: Creating versions with file_column but only if file is image

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''m trying to use file_column in an app I''m writing. Simple file uploads are working fine. However, when I try and use the :magick options to make resized versions, WEBrick dies. This is the Media model: class Media < ActiveRecord::Base file_column :media_item, :magick => { :versions => { :thumb => {:size =>

So I''ve recently finished up my first RoR application and made sure it all worked right on the windows machine i developed it on. then deployed it on GeekISP.com which runs Open/Free BSD. I had to jump through a few little hoops to get it working and set the permissions for rails to create directories, but it still doesnt work right. When i go to add a new item to the database and try

Hello, I''m just starting out with both Rails and Ruby, so I hope this isn''t too simple of a question - but I''ve been struggling to find a solution. I''m using the file_column plugin to handle image uploads and thumbnail generation. In addition, I''ve wrapped the image into a polymorphic table so I can have uploaded images associated with multiple

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 have a model called ProductFiles which associates an arbitrary amount of image and documents with a product. I am using the file_column plugin to manage the upload and storage of the images, like so: class ProductFile < ActiveRecord::Base # Accepted MIME types, mime types that are not part of this list are rejected MIME_EXTENSIONS = { "image/gif" => "gif",

hey I''m trying to find a way to convert images that were uploaded using file_column *before* file_column generates a thumb and copies them to the final dir - this because 50x50 is pretty small and png would be a much better format (in smaller dimensions) than jpg or gif. This is what i have in my model (using rmagick for the conversion): file_column :image, :magick => {:versions

File_column plugin is great. I need to change the default :store_dir from the dynamic "model_name/attribute_name" to an equally dynamic "client_id/app_id/model_name/attribute_name". In my model I have: class Component < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :component_type belongs_to :component_group breakpoint file_column :content, :magick => { :versions

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

does anyone know much about resizing different versions of images with file_column? i tried it and everything works fine, but my question is can you do more than just make sizes with a version of image? i''m working on a photo album and i would like to resize the image to a medium size, but create a thumbnail as well and crop anything left to make the thumbnail a perfect square. --

I am new to RoR. I am trying to use file_column and rmagick to resize images uploaded to my RoR app. The problem is that only images larger than the dimensions specified in my code will resize. For instance, if the uploaded image is 98x98, then the new images will remain that size. How can I enlarge images using file_column and rmagick? Here is the code in my model: file_column

Hi, I''m on Windows and getting the following error while trying to use file_column with RMagick, uninitialized constant Magick C:/INSTAN~1.0/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.3.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:123:in `const_missing'' #{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/plugins/file_column/branches/kyle/lib/file_column.rb:621:in `file_column'' I installed file_column by

Hi all, I patched file_column to add imagemagick transformations of uploaded content. I added an options hash, and it takes the :magick and :format keys. :magick is a string of imagemagick command line options for convert (Reference: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php). Format is an optional extension for the finished image. If Imagemagick recognizes the extension, then it will

So, anyway...i will try it again: I have to prefix that I am far away from fully understanding the overall concept yet, and there?s no way to get some hints in the www so far, at least my resaerches dont lead to any helpfull stuff. image_controller.rb: def create MiddleMan.new_worker

Hi, I''m using the basic magick features of file_column, and while files are uploading fine without the magick options, as soon as I do something like :magick => { :size => "400x600" } I get an ''invalid file'' error. Further investigation reveals that the file is in fact invalid because something somewhere is truncating the file path:

Hi there, I''m having some problems wityh the :magick options in file_coumn and wondered if anyone else had any similar ones: basically, file_column is working fine for me as is, but whenever I try to do an automatic resize or thumbnail I get the error ''invalid image''. It seems to be a path issue as I get: unable to open image

Hi, Currently I''m using the file_column plugin to upload images and save multiple copies of each at 3 different resoltions: file_column :name, :magick => { :versions => { "thumb96" => "96x150>", "medium250" => "250x400>", "large480" => "480X640>" } } I am wondering if
