<cimg-url/>

Provided by module: Graphics: Image converter

This tag generates an URL to the manipulated picture. <cimg-url> takes the same attributes as <cimg>, including the image cache attributes. The use for the tag is to insert image-URLs into various places, e.g. a submit-box.


Attributes

src="url"

The path to the indata file.

<cimg-url src='/internal-roxen-testimage'/>
/_internal/cimg!0/d0hu9i0wpdc97chmslse4fkmtzc3enl

data="imagedata"

Insert images from other sources, e.g. databases through entities or variables.

<emit source='sql' query='select imagedata from images where id=37'> <cimg-url data='&sql.imagedata;'/> </emit>

Timeout

The generated image will by default never expire, but in some circumstances it may be pertinent to limit the time the image and its associated data is kept. Its possible to set an (advisory) timeout on the image data using the following attributes.

unix-time="number"

Set the base expiry time to this absolute time.

If left out, the other attributes are relative to current time.


years="number"

Add this number of years to the time this entry is valid.


months="number"

Add this number of months to the time this entry is valid.


weeks="number"

Add this number of weeks to the time this entry is valid.


days="number"

hours="number"

Add this number of hours to the time this entry is valid.


beats="number"

Add this number of beats to the time this entry is valid.


minutes="number"

seconds="number"

Add this number of seconds to the time this entry is valid.

crop="{x1,y1-x2,y2, auto, guides-cross, guides-region}"

Crops the image by using several differen methods. The simplest is to only specify the area to be cropped with x,y-x,y coordinates. By instead selecting "auto" the image will be cropped so that as many pixels as possible with the same color is removed from around the image.

A more advanced cropping method can be used by giving the crop argument "guides-cross". The image will then be cropped around the intersection of two guides inside the image. Guides can be added to e.g. Photoshop and GIMP images. If several guides are present, which ones to use can be selected with the guides-index=x,y attribute, where x and y is the number of the guides. Guides cross cropping is usefull together with max-width and max-height attributes when creating thumb nails.

A combination of guides cross cropping can be used by giving the crop argument "guides-region". In this cropping mode the area enclosed by two horizontal and two vertical guides are saved. Which guides to use is given by the guides-index=x1,y1-x2,y2 attribute, where the x and y parameters are the number of the guides. Guides can also be specified as guides-index=x,y. Then the saved area will be the one enclosed by the buides x,y and x+1,y+1, counting from left and top. Again, combine max-width and max-height makes a good effect, since scaling is performed after cropping.
