Request - Help with Cloudinary/JPEGmini Image Compression #17

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Hello, great piece of software works very well. I was hoping for a bit of assistance using JPEGmini to adjust the quality of the files so they load a bit more quickly in emails accessed via mobile. I read this article here:

http://cloudinary.com/blog/optimize_your_jpeg_images_without_compromising_quality_with_jpegmini_and_cloudinary

It looks like "/q_90/" added to the upload URL will reduce the quality and help a bit. I am not sure where to even begin in adding this to the plexemail.py script. Could you provide me with a bit of direction when you have a moment? Thanks again for a great script!

You may wanna look at lines 301 - 311

def uploadToCloudinary(imgToUpload): if (os.path.isfile(imgToUpload)): if (os.path.islink(imgToUpload)): imgToUpload = os.path.realpath(imgToUpload) if (imghdr.what(imgToUpload)): response = cloudinary.uploader.upload(imgToUpload) return response['url'] else: return '' else: return ''

I would start here and check the url that is returned. You maybe able to edit that url to add the /q_90/

I looked through the documentation on how to do this through their library that PlexEmail is using and it looks like by default it is already using 90%:

http://cloudinary.com/documentation/image_transformation_reference#quality_parameter

Control the JPEG, WebP, GIF, JPEG XR and JPEG 2000 compression quality. 1 is the lowest quality and 100 is the highest. Reducing quality generates JPG images much smaller in file size. The default values are:

  • JPEG: 90

Ah, thank you for taking the time to look through this for me. Looks like we are getting about all the compression from cloudinary we will! Thank you!
