Extend Wagtail's Documents with image previews and metadata from `FilePreviews.io`_

Installing
----------

Install with **pip**:

.. code-block:: sh

$ pip install wagtaildocs_previews

Settings
~~~~~~~~

In your settings file, add ``wagtaildocs_previews`` to ``INSTALLED_APPS``:

.. code:: python

INSTALLED_APPS = [
# ...
'wagtaildocs_previews',
# ...
]

You'll also need to set ``WAGTAILDOCS_DOCUMENT_MODEL``.

.. code:: python

WAGTAILDOCS_DOCUMENT_MODEL = 'wagtaildocs_previews.PreviewableDocument'

URL configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code:: python

from wagtaildocs_previews import urls as wagtaildocs_urls

urlpatterns = [
# ...
url(r'^documents/', include(wagtaildocs_urls)),
# ...
]

FilePreviews.io API Keys
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For previews to be generated for your documents, you'll need to have a
`FilePreviews.io`_ account and an application's credentials. Once you have
the credentials, add them under the ``FilePreviews`` settings in your
Wagtail admin.

Usage
-----

Since we're extending via ``WAGTAILDOCS_DOCUMENT_MODEL`` you should be using
``get_document_model()`` to reference the correct Document model.

.. code:: python

from wagtail.core.models import Page
from wagtail.documents.models import get_document_model
from wagtail.documents.edit_handlers import DocumentChooserPanel

class BookPage(Page):
book_file = models.ForeignKey(
get_document_model(),
null=True,
blank=True,
on_delete=models.SET_NULL,
related_name='+'
)

content_panels = Page.content_panels + [
DocumentChooserPanel('book_file'),
]

In your template now you'll be able to access the ``preview_data`` field.

.. code:: html

{% extends "base.html" %}
{% load wagtailcore_tags %}

{% block body_class %}resource-page{% endblock %}

{% block content %}

Book

{{ page.book_file.title }}



{% endblock %}

Configuring thumbnail sizes and other options
---------------------------------------------

By default, image previews and not resized at all. If you want to specify additional `FilePreviews options`_ like thumbnail size or metadata, specify the ``WAGTAILDOCS_PREVIEWS_OPTIONS_CALLBACK`` option in your settings.

.. code:: python

WAGTAILDOCS_PREVIEWS_OPTIONS_CALLBACK='mysite.utils.get_preview_options'

In the ``mysite.utils`` module, create a `get_preview_options` method.

.. code:: python

def get_preview_options(document):
return {
'sizes': [300],
'metadata': ['ocr']
}

Bonus: Coding video session
