Image sizer options

[SamC]

I'm still having some trouble getting my head around the image sizer options. I was going over this old thread (horsts reply in this case):

...which suggests not overriding them in case you miss out any key/value pairs. But then I was reading on the official docs (just after halfway down the page):

You may modify the default $options that your system uses by adding a $config->imageSizerOptions in your /site/config.php file:

$config->imageSizerOptions = array(
 'upscaling' => true,
 'cropping' => true,
 'quality' => 90,
 );

 

...but a var_dump of $config->imageSizerOptions shows me this:

array(7) {
  ["upscaling"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["cropping"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["autoRotation"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["sharpening"]=>
  string(4) "soft"
  ["quality"]=>
  int(90)
  ["hidpiQuality"]=>
  int(60)
  ["defaultGamma"]=>
  float(2)
}

So does setting default system values in config.php as above not also miss out some key/value pairs?

Not sure why I'm having such a hard time with the image options, but I am! Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Can I add I just put:

$config->imageSizerOptions = array(
  'upscaling' => true,
  'cropping' => true,
  'quality' => 10,
  );

...in config.php. Now a var_dump of $config->imageSizerOptions shows me:

array(3) {
  ["upscaling"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["cropping"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["quality"]=>
  int(10)
}

Back again. So did (in config.php):

$config->customImageSizerOptions = array(
  'upscaling' => true,
  'cropping' => 'north',
  'quality' => 10,
);

$config->imageSizerOptions = array_merge($config->imageSizerOptions, $config->customImageSizerOptions);

var_dump of $config->imageSizerOptions shows me:

array(7) {
  ["upscaling"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["cropping"]=>
  string(6) "north" // YAY!
  ["autoRotation"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["sharpening"]=>
  string(4) "soft"
  ["quality"]=>
  int(10) // YAY!
  ["hidpiQuality"]=>
  int(60)
  ["defaultGamma"]=>
  float(2)
}

[offtopic] you know that tracy has the bd() option to dump beautifully highlighted and collapsible variable dumps?

Do you still have a question? I cannot really follow your --edit-- junks

Lol yeah, ended up thinking out loud on that one...

This still puzzles me. Doing this (as I learned above) means a bunch of key/value pairs are missed out.

I know I've been saying this for ages, but still got to get started using Tracy regularly.

Tracy is pretty powerful, and with that power comes a learning curve. I'm learning as I go and still have a long way to go. But you can't beat the convenience and ease of use (when you learn a feature) in debugging and testing code.

I believe you can do it like this in your config.php on an individual option basis:

$config->imageSizerOptions('quality', 10);
$config->imageSizerOptions('cropping', 'north');

..and so on; this doesn't override any of the other defaults.

Nice tip! Thanks
