Where do I install this extension?

2008-06-03T01:13:19-08:00

Ok, I apologise in advance for being dense.

I have downloaded the extension via MagentoConnect and it is sitting in /downloader/pearlib/download/NetAmbition_DirectResize-1.5.

Where do I move it to in order to use it? /code/community?

Many thanks.

directResize needs allow_url_fopen set true.

Most hosting companies set allow_url_fopen to false and for good reason. Unfortunately this means directResize will not work in a lot of cases.

Either the full file path would need to be in getimagesize (instead of the url) or we need to use curl. The full path method requires more setup information so I’m not sure if it’s a very good solution.

One method using the curl library is the following:

Replace

public function directResize($img_min_w, $img_min_h, $ratio=0, $autoriseAgrandissement = false)
{
//--> Recherche des dimentions de l’image d’origine
$size = getimagesize($this);
$img_src_w = $size[0];
$img_src_h = $size[1];

With

public function directResize($img_min_w, $img_min_h, $ratio=0, $autoriseAgrandissement = false)
{
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this->__toString());
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

if (!is_string($file_contents) || !isset($file_contents[0])) {
return $this->resize($img_min_w, $img_min_h);
}

$image = ImageCreateFromString($file_contents);

$img_src_w = imagesx($image);
$img_src_h = imagesy($image);

Error in Magento Connect After Installing

2008-07-10T11:25:39-08:00

After installing this extension through Magento Connect, the main screen listing all of the installed extensions gives an error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /drbd/var/www/domain.com/public_html/downloader/template/pear/packages.phtml on line 71

This appears in the row which shows the DirectResize Extension. What happened? Anyone?

allow_url_fopen On but still no go

2008-06-19T14:11:10-08:00

I am not sure why this is happening, but I have allow_url_fopen to On and I get an error that says getimagesize has timed out.

It takes forever to spit this error out like it is trying to do something.

Tried do the work around methods like ”curl” and ”getModel” (at the bottom of page) but still a no go.

So I found this thread:

http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/5502/

And made resize height value 0 and removed the height attribute in the html image tag and I get no distortion and no errors!

Hope this might help someone trying to make directResize work.
