Can you upgrade Glide to 0.3.*

[cve]

Hi,

the new Glide has a fit called fill, which I need, can you upgrade a composer.json to require new Glide?

[freekmurze]

This package requires version 2.2.4 of spatie/laravel-glide. That package requires version 0.3.* of Glide. So I think you could already use fill.

UPDATE

You are right, thanks :) and sorry for that stupid mistake :)

[freekmurze]

No problem! Have fun using the package.

Unfortunately there is no fill mode in 0.3.5 version of Glide, but I see it in master... What can we do with it?

[freekmurze]

If you see functionality in master-branch that isn't available in latest released version, than probably the maintainer is still working on the code. You'll have to wait for the stable release (or use dev-master packages in your project, which I personally don't recommend)

It will be nice if in medialibrary we could define custom conversions with intervention, is there any plan to do so?

[freekmurze]

Could you give an example of what your want to accomplish?

Could a medialibrary conversion help you?

We want to have ability to resize the image to exact width and height but without croping, this functionality is implemented in http://glide.thephpleague.com/1.0/api/size/#fit-fit with fill fit mode in Glide, but its very simple to implement in pure Intervention library with:

$newImage = $imageManager->canvas(100, 100);
$resized = $image->resize(100, 100); <--- this is resized with ratio, so not always 100 x 100
$result = $newImage->insert($resized, 'center'); <--- place optimal rezied image on the canvas which always has 100, 100

But with medialibrary or glide there is no posibility to define this custom manipulation

The Glide documentation states that 1.0 in still being developed. Once it gets released, I'll make sure to update my package. Meanwhile, you could perform your resize before adding the image to the medialibrary.

[cve]

Ok, I can resize the image before adding to medialibrary, but how to reference it later with getUrl('conversion') and getFirstMediaUrl('conversion') ?

[freekmurze]

A possible strategy is to put those files in their own collection:

$yourModel->setMedia($pathToPreConvertedImage)->toCollection('thumbs');

Hi, is Glide going to be upgraded to make sure of fill? Thanks.
