After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package cakephp-thumber

CI codecov Codacy Badge CodeFactor

cakephp-thumber is a CakePHP plugin to create thumbnails.

It uses intervention/image and provides:

Starting from 1.8.0 release, much of the code has been moved into the php-thumber package, so that it becomes a php library independent from CakePHP. This plugin continues to exist and all classes and methods remain unchanged, but it only includes the code closely related to CakePHP (commands, helpers, middlewares, etc). The namespace prefix is now Thumber\Cake and no longer Thumber.

Did you like this plugin? Its development requires a lot of time for me. Please consider the possibility of making a donation: even a coffee is enough! Thank you.


Requirements and supported formats

cakephp-thumber requires GD Library (>=2.0) or Imagick PHP extension (>=6.5.7). It's highly preferable to use Imagick, because It provides better performance and a greater number of supported formats.

Supported formats may vary depending on the library used.

If you want to use a different directory, read the Configuration section.

Testing

The library (GD or Imagick) to be tested is set by the tests/bootstrap.php file, using the THUMBER_DRIVER environment variable. By default, Imagick is used.

For example:

Moreover, some tests belong to the imageEquals group. These tests generate thubnails and compare them with pre-loaded thumbnails (inside tests/comparing_files/). By default, these tests are not performed, because the images may be different if generated from different environments and systems.

To exclude these tests, you should run:
