[CDB] ImageMagick Thumbnailer

Post by canonknipser »

Extension Name: ImageMagick Thumbnailer
Author: canonknipser

Extension Description: For security reasons, from phpBB 3.2.4 the execution of external programs was disabled (see the official announcement). Because of that thumbnails for images can only be generated by using php internal functions. By default, this is handled by the gd-library. But for high-quality images, using the ImageMagick function provides better results. This extension uses the php-library for ImageMagick without the need to specify a absolute path to the executables.
For more information, see the extensions wiki page at github

Extension Version: 1.0.1

Requirements:
  1. phpBB >= 3.2.4
  2. php library ImageMagick installed
All requirements will be checked during enabling of the extension
Features:
  • Set the image compression quality via acp
  • rotate thumbnails according to their exif information
Extension Download: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/exte ... umbnailer/

GitHub-Repository: https://github.com/canonknipser/imthumbnailer

Today I just prepared a new version which fixed some minor validation errors. The new version also has a improved error handling (errors are written to the admin log in the acp) and rotates thumbnails automatically depending on their exif information.
