NAME
   Plack::Middleware::Image::Scale - Resize jpeg and png images on the fly

VERSION
   version 0.008

SYNOPSIS
       ## example1.psgi

       builder {
           enable 'ConditionalGET';
           enable 'Image::Scale';
           enable 'Static', path => qr{^/images/};
           $app;
       };

   A request to /images/foo_40x40.png will use images/foo.(png|jpg|gif) as
   original, scale it to 40x40 px size and convert to PNG format.

       ## example2.psgi

       my $thumber = builder {
           enable 'ConditionalGET';
           enable 'Image::Scale',
               width => 200, height => 100,
               flags => { fill => 'ff00ff' };
           Plack::App::File->new( root => 'images' );
       };

       builder {
           mount '/thumbs' => $thumber;
           mount '/' => $app;
       };

   A request to /thumbs/foo.png will use images/foo.(png|jpg|gif) as
   original, scale it small enough to fit 200x100 px size, fill extra
   borders (top/down or left/right, depending on the original image aspect
   ratio) with cyan background, and convert to PNG format. Also clipping is
   available, see "CONFIGURATION".

       ## see example4.psgi

       my %imagesize = Config::General->new('imagesize.conf')->getall;

       # ...

       enable 'Image::Scale', size => \%imagesize;

   A request to /images/foo_medium.png will use images/foo.(png|jpg|gif) as
   original. The size and flags are taken from the configuration file as
   parsed by Config::General.

       ## imagesize.conf

       <medium>
           width   200
           height  100
           crop
       </medium>
       <big>
           width   300
           height  100
           crop
       </big>
       <thumbred>
           width   50
           height  100
           fill    ff0000
       </thumbred>

DESCRIPTION
   Scale and convert images to the requested format on the fly. By default
   the size and other scaling parameters are extracted from the request
   URI. Scaling is done with Image::Scale.

   The original image is not modified or even accessed directly by this
   module. The converted image is not cached, but the request can be
   validated (If-Modified-Since) against original image without doing the
   image processing. This middleware should be used together a cache proxy,
   that caches the converted images for all clients, and implements content
   validation.

   The response headers (like Last-Modified or ETag) are from the original
   image, but body is replaced with a PSGI content filter to do the image
   processing. The original image is fetched from next middleware layer or
   application with a normal PSGI request. You can use
   Plack::Middleware::Static, or Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple for
   example.

   See "CONFIGURATION" for various size/format specifications that can be
   used in the request URI, and "ATTRIBUTES" for common configuration
   options that you can use when constructing the middleware.

ATTRIBUTES
 path
   Must be a RegexpRef, CodeRef, Str or Undef.

   The PATH_INFO is compared against this value to evaluate if the request
   should be processed. Undef (the default) will match always. "PATH_INFO"
   is topicalized by settings it to $_, and it may be rewritten during
   "CodeRef" matching. Rewriting can be used to relocate image paths, much
   like "path" parameter for Plack::Middleware::Static.

   If path matches, next it will be compared against "name". If path
   doesn't match, the request will be delegated to the next middleware
   layer or application.

 match
   Must be a RegexpRef, or CodeRef.

   The PATH_INFO, possibly rewritten during "path" matching, is compared
   against this value to extract "name", "size" and "ext". The default
   value is:

       qr{^(.+)(?:_(.+?))?(?:\.(jpe?g|png|image))$}

   The expression is evaluated in array context and may return three
   elements: "name", "size" and "ext". Returning an empty array means no
   match. Non-matching requests are delegated to the next middleware layer
   or application.

   If the path matches, the original image is fetched from
   "name"."orig_ext", scaled with parameters extracted from "size" and
   converted to the content type defined by "ext". See also "any_ext".

 size
   Must be a RegexpRef, CodeRef, HashRef, Undef.

   The "size" extracted by "match" is compared against this value to
   evaluate if the request should be processed, and to map it into width,
   height and flags for image processing. Undef will match always and use
   default width, height and flags as defined by the "ATTRIBUTES". The
   default value is:

       qr{^(\d+)?x(\d+)?(?:-(.+))?$}

   The expression is evaluated in array context and may return three
   elements; "width", "height" and "flags". Returning an empty array means
   no match. Non-matching requests are delegated to the next middleware
   layer or application.

   Optionally a hash reference can be returned. Keys "width", "height", and
   any remaining keys as an hash reference, will be unrolled from the hash
   reference.

 any_ext
   If defined and request "ext" is equal to this, the content type of the
   original image is used in the output. This means that the image format
   of the original image is preserved. Default is "image".

 orig_ext
   ArrayRef of possible original image formats. See "fetch_orig".

 memory_limit
   Memory limit for the image scaling in bytes, as defined in Image::Scale.

 jpeg_quality
   JPEG quality, as defined in Image::Scale.

 width
   Use this to set and override image width.

 height
   Use this to set and override image height.

 flags
   Use this to set and override image processing flags.

METHODS
 fetch_orig
   Call parameters: PSGI request HashRef $env, Str $basename. Return value:
   PSGI response ArrayRef $res.

   The original image is fetched from the next layer or application. All
   possible extensions defined in "orig_ext" are tried in order, to search
   for the original image. All other responses except a straight 404 (as
   returned by Plack::Middleware::Static for example) are considered
   matches.

 body_scaler
   Call parameters: @args. Return value: PSGI content filter CodeRef $cb.

   Create the content filter callback and return a CodeRef to it. The
   filter will buffer the data and call "image_scale" with parameters @args
   when EOF is received, and finally return the converted data.

 image_scale
   Call parameters: ScalarRef $buffer, String $ct, Int $width, Int $height,
   HashRef|Str $flags. Return value: $imagedata

   Read image from $buffer, scale it to $width x $height and return as
   content-type $ct. Optional $flags to specify image processing options
   like background fills or cropping.

CONFIGURATION
   The default match pattern for URI is
   "*...*_*width*x*height*-*flags*.*ext*".

   If URI doesn't match, the request is passed through. Any number of flags
   can be specified, separated with "-". Flags can be boolean (exists or
   doesn't exist), or have a numerical value. Flag name and value are
   separated with a zero-width word to number boundary. For example "z20"
   specifies flag "z" with value 20.

 width
   Width of the output image. If not defined, it can be anything (to
   preserve the image aspect ratio).

 height
   Height of the output image. If not defined, it can be anything (to
   preserve the image aspect ratio).

 flags: fill
   Image aspect ratio is preserved by scaling the image to fit within the
   specified size. This means scaling to the smaller or the two possible
   sizes that preserve aspect ratio. Extra borders of background color are
   added to fill the requested image size exactly.

       /images/foo_400x200-fill.png

   If fill has a value, it specifies the background color to use. Undefined
   color with png output means transparent background.

 flags: crop
   Image aspect ratio is preserved by scaling and cropping from middle of
   the image. This means scaling to the bigger of the two possible sizes
   that preserve the aspect ratio, and then cropping to the exact size.

 flags: fit
   Image aspect ratio is preserved by scaling the image to the smaller of
   the two possible sizes. This means that the resulting picture may have
   one dimension smaller than specified, but cropping or filling is
   avoided.

   See documentation in distribution directory "doc" for a visual
   explanation.

 flags: z
   Zoom the original image N percent bigger. For example "z20" to zoom 20%.
   Zooming applies only to explicitly defined width and/or height, and it
   does not change the crop size.

       /images/foo_40x-z20.png

CAVEATS
   The cropping requires Imager. This is a run-time dependency, and
   fallback is not to crop the image to the expected size.
