Tests

The tests should run with tox and pytest. Running tox will run all tests for all environments. However, it is possible to run a certain environment with tox -e <env>, a list of all environments can be found with tox -l. These tests require the dependencies of the different engines defined in the documentation. It is possible to install these dependencies into a vagrant image with the Vagrantfile in the repo.

How to Use

Get the code

Getting the code for the latest stable release use ‘pip’.

$ pip install sorl-thumbnail

Install in your project

Then register ‘sorl.thumbnail’, in the ‘INSTALLED_APPS’ section of your project’s settings.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.comments',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',

    'sorl.thumbnail',
)

Templates Usage

All of the examples assume that you first load the thumbnail template tag in your template.:

{% load thumbnail %}

A simple usage.

{% thumbnail item.image "100x100" crop="center" as im %}
    <img src="{{ im.url }}" width="{{ im.width }}" height="{{ im.height }}">
{% endthumbnail %}

See more examples in the section Template examples in the Documentation

Model Usage

Using the ImageField that automatically deletes references to itself in the key value store and its thumbnail references and the thumbnail files when deleted.:

from django.db import models
from sorl.thumbnail import ImageField

class Item(models.Model):
    image = ImageField(upload_to='whatever')

See more examples in the section Model examples in the Documentation

Low level API

You can use the ‘get_thumbnail’:

from sorl.thumbnail import get_thumbnail
from sorl.thumbnail import delete

im = get_thumbnail(my_file, '100x100', crop='center', quality=99)
delete(my_file)

See more examples in the section Low level API examples in the Documentation

Using in combination with other thumbnalers

Alternatively, you load the templatetags by {% load sorl_thumbnail %} instead of traditional {% load thumbnail %}. It’s especially useful in projects that do make use of multiple thumbnailer libraries that use the same name (thumbnail) for the templatetag module:

{% load sorl_thumbnail %}
{% thumbnail item.image "100x100" crop="center" as im %}
    <img src="{{ im.url }}" width="{{ im.width }}" height="{{ im.height }}">
{% endthumbnail %}

Frequently asked questions

Is so slow in Amazon S3 !

Possible related to the implementation of your Amazon S3 Backend, see the issue #351 due the storage backend reviews if there is an existing thumbnail when tries to generate the thumbnail that makes an extensive use of the S3 API

A fast workaround if you are not willing to tweak your storage backend is to set:

THUMBNAIL_FORCE_OVERWRITE = True

So it will avoid to overly query the S3 API.
