Phototrim

Simple gem that helps with resizing a bunch of photos

Phototrim has rmagick as dependency and it requires MagicWand to run. Depending on your distribution, you'll have to install MagickWand headers first:

$ sudo apt-get install libmagickwand-dev
$ sudo yum install ImageMagick-devel

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

 gem 'phototrim'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install phototrim

The Phototrimmer class makes available to you the main function, that does all your heavy lifting. Simply do a:

	require 'phototrim'

        trimmer = Phototrimmer.new max_size_in_px, src_dir, dest_dir
        trimmer.main
	# example: 
	# trimmer = Phototrimmer.new 640, "/home/sarupbanskota/old_images", "/home/sarupbanskota/better_destination"
        # trimmer.main
 

Phototrim also shows up as a terminal command you can use. Assuming you want to trim photos to a width of 50px within ~/memories/goa_photos, you can use the phototrim command. If you like, there's also a destination option.

$ phototrim 50 ~/memories/goa_photos
$ phototrim 640 ~/memories/goa_photos ~/Pictures/Goa        

Boom! :)
