Imagemagick: How to change images generated names

Wednesday 08 October 2008 11:53:12 am

Hello,

Please see my previous post at http://ez.no/developer/forum/developer/image_variations_some_do_some_don_t

In windows there is a problem with long names for folders and files due to the 256 limit, this issue can be found at http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=11248&activeItem=15

The name of the directory where the variations of the images will be saved (generated by imagemagick) and also, the name of the images are made from the pattern of the object (the default is attribute <name>) defined at the class definition form.

Once (my problem!!) you change the pattern by using more attributes (name + code + any other attribute) then the images generated in all variations defined at image.ini are indeed "big names", so the 256 limit at windows comes to an end (pity windows).

I would like to hack the precise code that will limit the use of all the pattern used at the administration class object pattern definition, so only <name> is used, and by doing this generate only short names for folders and names.

This will not save windows responsibility :-), but it will indeed save me from my client as images are not been generated (randomly) depending of the length of all attrributes that makes the pattern object.

thanks

Hi Jorge

The path used is generated in eZImageAliasHandler::imagePath(), imagePathByNode(), the image name by imageName() and imageNameByNode().
