Need to resize images on your RoR app?
- Published November 27th, 2007 in Tips & Tricks, Ruby
The common mortal will probably use ImageMagick along with RMagick. But ImageMagick is definitely an overkill considering that you just want to resize images and RMagick is a PITA to install and it’s buggy.
So, for the sake of all of you out there crying out loud, there’s ImageScience. It’s a gem, so installation is really easy, and it only depends on FreeImage, a library dedicated only to resizing images. It’s darn fast and stable.
I’m not looking back!
