flask-thumbnails

================

A simple extension to create a thumbs for the Flask

Installation

------------

Use your favorite Python package manager to install the app from PyPI, e.g.

Example:

``pip install flask-thumbnails``

Add ``Thumbnail`` to your extension file:

.. code:: python

    from flask import Flask

    from flask_thumbnails import Thumbnail

    app = Flask(__name__)

    thumb = Thumbnail(app)

Add ``THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_ROOT`` and ``THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_URL`` in your settings:

.. code:: python

    app.config['THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_ROOT'] = '/home/www/media'

    app.config['THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_URL'] = '/media/'

Example usage

-------------

Use in Jinja2 template:

 .. code:: html

    

    

Options

~~~~~~~

``crop='fit'`` returns a sized and cropped version of the image, cropped to the requested aspect ratio and size, `read more `_.

``quality=XX`` changes the quality of the output JPEG thumbnail, default ``90``.

Develop and Production

----------------------

Production

~~~~~~~~~~

In production, you need to add media directory in you web server.

Develop

~~~~~~~

To service the uploaded files need a helper function, where ``/media/`` your settings ``app.config['THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_URL']``:

.. code:: python

    from flask import send_from_directory

    @app.route('/media/')

    def media_file(filename):

        return send_from_directory(app.config['THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_THUMBNAIL_ROOT'], filename)

Option settings

---------------

If you want to store the thumbnail in a folder other than the ``THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_THUMBNAIL_ROOT``, you need to set it manually:

.. code:: python

    app.config['THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_THUMBNAIL_ROOT'] = '/home/www/media/cache'

    app.config['THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_THUMBNAIL_URL'] = '/media/cache/'

    app.config['THUMBNAIL_STORAGE_BACKEND'] = 'flask_thumbnails.storage_backends.FilesystemStorageBackend'

    app.config['THUMBNAIL_DEFAULT_FORMAT'] = 'JPEG'

Migrate 0.X to 1.X

------------------

Since version 1.X all settings have a prefix ``THUMBNAIL_``. Example: ``MEDIA_ROOT`` -> ``THUMBNAIL_MEDIA_ROOT``.
