Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ebl_image_edit v1.0

Just updated this plugin for Textpattern 4.6.2. How does it normaly work? This plugin seems an orphan. Still I don´t know if I could just post it here in the same name just in v2.4 for example ?
Have you posted? I downloaded the v2.2 that was updated for 4.6 and it doesn’t seem to be working for 4.6.2. Thanks!!

What’s the status of this plugin? Has anything been developed that replaced it?

Not yet but we have (today) settled on a core image library that will allow us to offer way better image handling. Here are some mockups of the sort of thing we’re thinking:
- design-patterns.textpattern.com/dev/mockups/content-image-grid.html
- design-patterns.textpattern.com/dev/mockups/secondary/content-image_edit-proposal.html
That doesn’t take into account multiple sizes. We have some ideas around that to push into the next version of Textpattern.
EDIT: updated links

Awesome! I was reminiscing back to my pre-attorney days and saw that this hadn’t been updated. Was thinking of ways to get myself more time to start some hobby-level dev work. Those mockups look stellar. I might suggest some fancy thumbnail generation functionality as well from the original (similar to how image edit did).

Please do! Your work is excellent.

Yeah, thumbnail generation is something I’ve been banging around my head a lot. See GitHub issue 1472 for lots of back-and-forth over whether to generate pre-defined image sizes or (better, imo) on-the-fly images at a set of breakpoints you choose at any time, cached after first generation. If you have any thoughts on this, by all means weigh in.

I’m working on a rewrite of this. I’m not exactly thrilled with the latest changes that break most everything that existed previously.

Update – Note, keeping updates here because this may not pan out and I might fizzle back into more work related stuff at some point. If that happens, I’ll leave where I’m at on my github.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ebl_image_edit v1.0
For anyone following along, this officially works with 4.8.8 now. If/When 4.9 comes out, I’ll deal with that.
I’m not releasing it yet because I would like a couple more features added to it.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ebl_image_edit v1.0
Cool! Great that you’ve brought it up to date. One’s got so used to prepping images in advance that I only realise how much some of this functionality is missing when I show others how to use Textpattern.
4.9 is already in a very good and stable position and I – and I think others – use it actively nowadays. Certainly the UI in the image pane has remained stable for a long while, and changes that affect the UI (like the preview pane developments right now) are rare. If you can and are willing, I think you could definitely cater for 4.9 now.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ebl_image_edit v1.0
If it’s any use, I do have an images branch floating around that I could merge up to date. Although it uses Intervention, which may not be the route we eventually take in Txp 5, it adds core hooks to the images panel for transforms. A bunch of transforms are predefined at present (rotation, flipping, etc) with unlimited undo/redo steps and I’ve written an extension plugin that adds brightness/contrast to demonstrate the hooks.
It’s ugly as all sin at the moment, but it works. I was struggling with crop as it needs JavaScript that’s beyond my pay grade.
As I say, this may not be the way we ultimately move: it depends on how we implement multiple thumbs, but I’m happy to open up my meddling if it helps. You might be able to leverage some of it or suggest better ways to do it in core, or submit a PR that does it way better than I have.
Btw. I’m not entirely sure how many transforms, if any, we should supply as standard. Thoughts on that are also welcome.

I would rather reduce core to a vital minimum: define data structure, store and retrieve data. Transforms (even Textile) look more like plugin territory. But my experience with images is close to zero, they might require some special treatment.
