New Module: Image Compressor

Hey,
I've developed a new
module called Image Compressor. It helps you to compress all images uploaded to CMSms via Image manager without loss of quality to improve website performance. It uses the API Service of Yahoo's Smush.it. No registration needed!

Great module, thanks for sharing.
However, I guess the API-URL should change from
Code: Select all
define('SMUSHIT_API_URL', 'http://www.smushit.com/ysmush.it/ws.php?img=%s');
to
Code: Select all
define('SMUSHIT_API_URL', 'http://ws1.adq.ac4.yahoo.com/ysmush.it/ws.php?img=%s');
With the latter the module works like a charm, where as it just gives an "invalid URL" error on the first API_URL.
There is also one error in the module:
it can't handle images with blanks in the name.
Best Regards

Hey swgreed,
I changed the API URL, altough the first one works fine for me, because the latter also works fine.
Unfortunately both URLs can't handle spaces or umlauts even if they're encoded (spaces as %20 or +). So I added a warning instead.
Fixes are in git.
Thanks, Foaly*

Hi Foaly,
works great!
However I gotone last feature request:
make the image names clickable or do an image preview. That would enhance the comfort deciding to optimize the image or not.

Hey swgreed,
already thought of adding it before the next commit.

Why wouldn't you optimize an image when it's lossless?

Prototype version of my javascript doesn't work in Firefox, curious. I don't manage to do away with the issue.

Can anybody please help me with a problem
I have just installed CMSMS on my PC using winamp, which worked fine.
When trying to run image compressor and clicking on the check all link, I get the following error
Code: Select all
Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$dest_size in C:\wamp\www\cmsms\modules\ImageCompressor\ImageCompressor.module.php on line 108
Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$percent in C:\wamp\www\cmsms\modules\ImageCompressor\ImageCompressor.module.php on line 108
Does anybody have any ideas, google gives me nothing.
Thanks in advance
Richard

hi richard,
if you run it from your local computer, it can't work. imagecompressor uses yahoos service smushit to compress images.
i'll have to implement a better error handling.

Sorry for my late reply.
I've just installed the module in to 1.9.4.2. Works fine. If there are no images I get a "No images found". Maybe I can have a look on your installation if the problem persists?
