• phplondon conference 2008

  9 juin 2010, par Mikko Koppanen — Everything else, Imagick, PHP stuff, phplondon08

  To summarize it : I had fun My conference preparations started about two weeks before the conference. The PHPLondon fellows (Paul, Matt and Richard) asked me to do a small presentation about Imagick at the pre-conference social event. The presentation I assembled ended up being a little over two hours, give or take. The hardest part was to trim down from two hours to about 40 minutes (I didn’t want to bore the people with too many code examples). The slides are available at http://valokuva.org/talks if you need them for some reason.

  My conference day was pretty hectic from the beginning to the end. I gave a few demos about the products that we represent and the moment I opened my mouth for the first time people started leaving the room. I hope that it had something to do with the “My Framework is better than yours ?” talk starting at the same time

  I met quite a lot of new people at the conference and of course it was nice to see the familiar faces from other conferences and PHPLondon meetings. I was especially happy that I was able to answer the questions Nigel James had

  A huge thanks to the organizers for making this day possible !

• Typesetting

  Ever had the situation where you have a piece of string which you need to overlay on an image ? Maybe a situation where the area reserved for the string is known in pixels but you need to know the font size to fill most of the area ? Think no more !

  Here is a small example of how to fit a certain piece of a string on to an area of which you know the width and the height or only the width. The magic happens through the ImageMagick CAPTION : format. You can see from the example images how the parameters actually affect the image.

  php

  < view plain text >

  1. < ?php
  2.  
  3. /* How wide is our image */
  4. $image_width = 200 ;
  5.  
  6. /* Give zero for autocalculating the height */
  7. $image_height = 200 ;
  8.  
  9. /* Specify the text */
  10. $text = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
  11.     Mauris lectus mi, mattis non, euismod vel, sagittis nec, ipsum." ;
  12.  
  13. /* Instanciate imagick */
  14. $im = new Imagick() ;
  15.  
  16. /* Create new image using caption : pseudo format */
  17. $im->newPseudoImage( $image_width, $image_height, "caption :" . $text ) ;
  18.  
  19. /* Put 1px border around the image */
  20. $im->borderImage( ’black’, 1, 1 ) ;
  21.  
  22. /* PNG format */
  23. $im->setImageFormat( "png")  ;
  24.  
  25. /* Output */
  26. header( "Content-Type : image/png" ) ;
  27. echo $im ;
  28.  
  29.  ?>

  Here is image with width 100 and height 0 :

  

  Width 100 Height 50 :

  

  Width 200 Height 200 (as you can see the font size is now larger) :

  

• Padding thumbnail with color

  9 juin 2010, par Mikko Koppanen — Imagick, PHP stuff

  I know, it’s been a while since I last blogged. This is because a lot of things are happening in my personal life. I recently relocated to London from Finland and started a new job. Things are quite busy but I will try to post an example now and then. In the meanwhile I would like to hear about sites using Imagick, so if your project is not super secret please post an url and maybe a small explanation what you’re doing with Imagick on the site. This is purely for my personal interest.

  Anyway, to the point. Today’s example originates from a question asked by a user. How do I thumbnail the image inside given dimensions proportionally and fill the “blank” areas with a color ? Well, the answer is here

  The code is for Imagick 2.1.0 but adapting to older versions should not be hard.

  php

  < view plain text >

  1. < ?php
  2. /* Define width and height of the thumbnail */
  3. $width = 100 ;
  4. $height = 100 ;
  5.  
  6. /* Instanciate and read the image in */
  7. $im = new Imagick( "test.png" ) ;
  8.  
  9. /* Fit the image into $width x $height box
  10.  The third parameter fits the image into a "bounding box" */
  11. $im->thumbnailImage( $width, $height, true ) ;
  12.  
  13. /* Create a canvas with the desired color */
  14. $canvas = new Imagick() ;
  15. $canvas->newImage( $width, $height, ’pink’, ’png’ ) ;
  16.  
  17. /* Get the image geometry */
  18. $geometry = $im->getImageGeometry() ;
  19.  
  20. /* The overlay x and y coordinates */
  21. $x = ( $width - $geometry[’width’] ) / 2 ;
  22. $y = ( $height - $geometry[’height’] ) / 2 ;
  23.  
  24. /* Composite on the canvas */
  25. $canvas->compositeImage( $im, imagick: :COMPOSITE_OVER, $x, $y ) ;
  26.  
  27. /* Output the image*/
  28. header( "Content-Type : image/png" ) ;
  29. echo $canvas ;
  30.  
  31.  ?>
