What (summary)
Make sure we can manipulate and resize images from within Ruby code.
Why this is important
We need images (especially logos) to work from within our next-generation code.
DoneDone
- We can arbitrarily resize images from within Rails.
- Logos on profiles are displayed this way
- We determine how Mediawiki has been resizing logos on domain pages and apply the same rules to the profiles so to not needlessly resize images.
Steps to get to DoneDone
- Determine the ease and feasibility of the following options--choose one:
- Use ImageMagick/RMagick or similar code to reimplement Mediawiki's functionality.
- Use web service API to expose Mediawiki's image functionality to Rails code.
- Verify functionality by hand
- How easy is it to test? Do some investigation.
