Install
===========================================
::

sudo pip install django-thumbnailfield


Prepare to use
==========================================

1. Append 'thumbnailfield' to ``INSTALLED_APPS``

2. Set ``MEDIA_ROOT`` correctly. For example::

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '../static')


Example mini blog app
=========================================

``models.py``::

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User

from thumbnailfield.fields import ThumbnailField

class Entry(models.Model):
PUB_STATES = (
('public', 'public entry'),
('protected', 'login required'),
('private', 'secret entry'),
)
pub_state = models.CharField('publish status', choices=PUB_STATES)
title = models.CharField('title', max_length=140)
body = models.TextField('body')

#
# This is a usage of ThumbnailField.
# You have to set ``patterns`` to generate thumbnails
#
thumbnail = ThumbnailField(_('thumbnail'), upload_to='img/thumbnails', null=True, blank=True, patterns={
# Pattern Format:
# <Name>: (
# (<square_size>,), # with defautl process_method
# (<width>, <height>,), # with default process_method
# (<width>, <height>, <method or method_name>),
# (<width>, <height>, <method or method_name>, <method options>),
# )
#
# If Name is ``None`` that mean original image will be processed
# with the pattern
#
# Convert original image to sepia and resize it to 800x400 (original
# size is 804x762)
None: ((None, None, 'sepia'), (800, 400, 'resize')),
# Create 640x480 resized thumbnail as large.
'large': ((640, 480, 'resize'),),
# Create 320x240 cropped thumbnail as small. You can write short
# pattern if the number of appling pattern is 1
'small': (320, 240, 'crop', {'left': 0, 'upper': 0}),
# Create 160x120 thumbnail as tiny (use default process_method to
# generate)
'tiny': (160, 120),
#
# These thumbnails are not generated while accessed. These can be
# accessed with the follwoing code::
#
# entry.thumbnail.large
# entry.thumbnail.small
# entry.thumbnail.tiny
#
# # shortcut properties
# entry.thumbnail.large_file # as entry.thumbnail.large.file
# entry.thumbnail.large_path # as entry.thumbnail.large.path
# entry.thumbnail.large_url # as entry.thumbnail.large.url
# entry.thumbnail.large.size # as entry.thumbnail.large.size
#
})
# ...

``entry_detail.html``::

<html>
<head>
<title>django-thumbnailfield example</title>
</head>
<body>
<dl>
<dt>Original</dt>
<dd><img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ object.thumbnail }}"></dd>
<dt>Thumbnail "large"</dt>
<dd><img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ object.thumbnail.large }}"></dd>
<dt>Thumbnail "small"</dt>
<dd><img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ object.thumbnail.small }}"></dd>
<dt>Thumbnail "tiny"</dt>
<dd><img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ object.thumbnail.tiny }}"></dd>
</dl>
</body>
</html>

How to use custom process method
================================================================

Create your own custom process method like below::

from thumbnailfield.process_methods import get_sepia_image
from thumbnailfield.process_methods import get_cropped_image
from thumbnailfield.exceptions import ThumbnailFieldPatternImproperlyConfigured

def get_sepia_and_cropped_image(img, width, height, **options):
# do something with img
img = get_sepia_image(img, None, None, **options)
img = get_cropped_image(img, width, height, **options)
return img
def _sepia_and_cropped_error_check(f, img, width, height, **options):
# do some error check
if 'left' not in options:
raise ThumbnailFieldPatternImproperlyConfigured(f, "'left' is required")
if 'upper' not in options:
raise ThumbnailFieldPatternImproperlyConfigured(f, "'upper' is required")
# Apply error check function
# Error check is recommended if your process method required any options
# otherwise just forget about this.
get_sepia_and_cropped_image.error_check = _sepia_and_cropped_error_check

Use defined method in pattern like below

# models.py
# ...
thumbnail = ThumbnailField('thumbnail', upload_to='thumbnails', patterns = {
'large': (400, 500, get_sepia_and_cropped_image, {'left': 0, 'upper': 0})
}
# ...

Or define the method in THUMBNAILFIELD_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE and use as a string anme

# settings.py
from thumbnailfield import DEFAULT_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE
THUMBNAILFIELD_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE = DEFAULT_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE
THUMBNAILFIELD_PROCESS_METHOD_TABLE['sepia_and_crop'] = get_sepia_and_cropped_image

# models.py
# ...
thumbnail = ThumbnailField('thumbnail', upload_to='thumbnails', patterns = {
'large': (400, 500, 'sepia_and_crop', {'left': 0, 'upper': 0})
}
# ...
