image_science

Clean and happy thumbnail generation.

ImageScience is a clean and happy Ruby library that generates thumbnails – and kicks the living crap out of RMagick. Oh, and it doesn’t leak memory like a sieve. :)

• Glorious graphics manipulation magi… errr, SCIENCE! in less than 300 LoC!
• Supports square and proportional thumbnails, as well as arbitrary resizes.
• Pretty much any graphics format you could want. No really.

ImageScience.with_image file do |img|
  img.cropped_thumbnail 100 do |thumb|
    thumb.save "#{file}_cropped.png"
  end

  img.thumbnail 100 do |thumb|
    thumb.save "#{file}_thumb.png"
  end
end
