[TYPO3-dev] Wanted: Jerome Schneider

[Widmann, Manfred]

I'm looking for Jerome Schneider, author of the wonderfull 
ameos_dragndropupload! I sent an email but I'm afraid it went into the spams 
...

If you are reachable by this way, here's the two mails:

Hi Jerome!
I'm still into building a scaling utility into your mass upload extension. I 
basically know where I want to add:

  a.. In DropTargetImage.java in the uploadFiles() method i want to add a 
call to a methode of mine called LittleToolBox.imageScale(file, int) which 
scales the image in the file to a maximum width or heigth (whatever is 
larger) of the given int.
  b.. Later on in the uploadFiles() all occurences of oCurFile have to be 
changed to oCurFileScl (the scaled one)
But a few questions remain:
  a.. In the extension you provide a src directory with nearly (!) all the 
Java sources but ClientHttpRequest (which is used in MyDropTargetList.java 
isn't provided. I think it has to be the code of Vlad Patryshev? But I'm not 
shure ...
  b.. BTW: Is this a second version of the mass upload or what? Is this 
running code?
  c.. Somehow there is to pass the desired maximum width or heigth to 
DropTargetImage.uploadFiles() ... any idea how to do that best?
Cheers
Manfred

Betreff: Drag Drop Mass Upload


Hi Jerome!
I installed your extensions and found two problems - one with TYPO3 4.1.x (I 
think) and one with DAM-iteraction:

  a.. Maybe since TYPO3 4.1.0 there isn't any Web>File module anymore! 
"File" is a group like "Web" now, so your (great!) extensions doesn't 
integrate into the backend module menu without DAM. Therefore DAM has to be 
installed to make use of ameos_dragndropupload
  b.. When one first installs ameos_dragndropupload and afterward installs 
DAM, DAM will not work correctly; it simply doesn't show up in the menue. 
Everything is ok, when you install DAM first and ameos_dragndropupload 
later.
Maybe it's of any interest to you for making your extension running in the 
future too ...

But I have a question too: I would like to invent mass-scaling of the 
mass-uploaded pictures, so that every picture has a certain max width or 
heigth. Where would you program this feature? Maybe in mod1/index.php short 
after teh call of upload_copy_move() with the help of imageMagick?
Cheers
Manfred
