ImageMagick & Cake Ver 2.0.4

[Timothy O'Reilly]

Hi,
I want to use ImageMagick with Cake Ver 2.0.4 (at least I think it is the best solution for my app).  Then (most likely) gonna use phmagick to manipulate images etc.

I have read several blogs on installing (in a PHP MAMP environment) and I am about to install ImageMagick but would greatly appreciate any useful suggestions on how best to use with Cake (before I start).

Anyone using it with Cake? Where should I install it (i.e. the path) and any other help gratefully accepted.  Kinda worried about how I will end up deploying it later on also, as I am currently using Rackspace Cloudsites :)

Regards,
Tim

Use the pecl library imagick. It is more than capable and has a very good interface

Hi,

 

Thanks. Very encouraging start. Would you be kind to provide some sample code to use this in my controller? I am losing my mind on this to convert PDF to PNG file in my cakephp 1.3 controller.

Hi
I have placed this code in my controller (changed the file locations a bit to map to /files/upload under cakephp 'webroot' folder. Nothing happens. Atleast I don't see any new file created. What might be going wrong here?



        $im = new imagick( 'files/upload/test.pdf[0]' );

        // convert to jpg
        $im->setImageColorspace(255);
        $im->setCompression(Imagick::COMPRESSION_JPEG);
        $im->setCompressionQuality(60);
        $im->setImageFormat('jpeg');

        //resize
        $im->resizeImage(290, 375, imagick::FILTER_LANCZOS, 1);  

        //write image on server
        $im->writeImage('files/upload/test.jpg');
        $im->clear();
        $im->destroy();

Hi

I have added this code by mapping the file location to files/upload/ under webroot folder of Cakephp. However, nothing happens. Would you know why this might be happening?

-Adhi

<?php

$im = new imagick( 'files/upload/test.pdf[0]' ); 

// convert to jpg 
$im->setImageColorspace(255); 
$im->setCompression(Imagick::COMPRESSION_JPEG); 
$im->setCompressionQuality(60); 
$im->setImageFormat('jpeg'); 

//resize 
$im->resizeImage(290, 375, imagick::FILTER_LANCZOS, 1);  

//write image on server 
$im->writeImage('files/upload/thumb.jpg'); 

$im->clear(); 
$im->destroy();  

?>
