A simple Django app to manage image/photo thumbnails. Supports remote/cloud storage systems like Amazon S3.

Project description

# This is a work in progress and is not ready for use

Build Status

Design:

  • Uses Django Storage API

  • Uses flexible meta data store

Usage

settings.py:

THUMBNAILS = {
    'METADATA': {
        'BACKEND': 'thumbnails.backends.metadata.DatabaseBackend', # Redis backend also supported
    },
    'STORAGE': {
        'BACKEND': 'django.core.files.storage.FileSystemStorage',
        # You can also use Amazon S3 or any other Django storage backends
    }
    'SIZES': {
        'small': {
            'PROCESSORS': [
                {'PATH': 'thumbnails.processors.resize', 'width': 10, 'height': 10},
                {'PATH': 'thumbnails.processors.crop', 'width': 80, 'height': 80}
            ],
            'POST_PROCESSORS': [
                {
                    'processor': 'thumbnails.post_processors.optimize',
                    'png_command': 'optipng -force -o7 "%(filename)s"',
                    'jpg_command': 'jpegoptim -f --strip-all "%(filename)s"',
                },
            ],
        },
        'large': {
            'PROCESSORS': [
                {'PATH': 'thumbnails.processors.resize', 'width': 20, 'height': 20},
                {'PATH': 'thumbnails.processors.flip', 'direction': 'horizontal'}
            ],
        }
    }
}

In python:

import thumbnails

class Food(models.Model):
    image = thumbnails.Field()


food = Food.objects.latest('id')
food.image.thumbnails.all()
food.image.thumbnails.small  # Generates "small" sized thumbnail
food.image.thumbnails.large  # Generates "large" sized thumbnail
food.image.thumbnails.small.url  # Returns "small" sized thumbnail URL

Builtin processors:

# To use the following processors, put the arguments of processors in SIZES definition
thumbnails.processors.resize(width, height)
thumbnails.processors.rotate(degrees)
thumbnails.processors.flip(direction)
thumbnails.processors.crop(width, height, center)

Processors are applied sequentially in the same order of definition.

Management Commands

If you changed your size definition and want to regenerate the thumbnails, use:

python manage.py delete_thumbnails --model=app.Model --size=thumbnail_size_to_delete

Running Tests

which django-admin.py test thumbnails –settings=thumbnails.tests.settings –pythonpath=.
