Create thumbnail with GraphicsMagick
Here is a snippet we showed on the FMTraining live stream yesterday and it may be interesting for everyone here:
Set Variable [ $image ; Value: MBS( "GMImage.NewFromContainer"; $input) ]
If [ MBS("IsError") = 0 ]
# limit size to maximum 1000 pixels in width
Set Variable [ $scale ; Value: MBS("GMImage.Scale";$Image; "1000>") ]
# remove metadata
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS( "GMImage.SetProfile"; $image; "IPTC"; "" ) ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS( "GMImage.SetProfile"; $image; "EXIF"; "" ) ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS( "GMImage.SetProfile"; $image; "XMP"; "" ) ]
# save
Set Variable [ $NewImage ; Value: MBS("GMImage.WriteToJPEGContainer"; $Image) ]
If [ MBS("IsError") = 0 ]
Set Field [ Get Preview::Preview ; $NewImage ]
Set Field [ Get Preview::Made using ; "GraphicsMagick" ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMimage.Release";$Image) ]
Exit Script [ Text Result: ]
End If
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMimage.Release";$Image) ]
End If
As you see we load an image from a container field or a variable with a container value. Then we scale it to a maximum width of 1000 pixels. We remvoe metadata and then write out a JPEG image.
We could add a call to GMImage.SetDensity in order to change resolution metadata if needed.
