imagick | 🌈 The Imagick PHP extension 🌈 | Computer Vision library

I have two png layers, both with transparent backgrounds, that I'm trying to combine in Imagick in PHP. One is a shape, another is reflections to be applied on top of that shape. However the reflections were drawn overlapping outside the edges of the shape, so I need to clip them to the shape (remove the parts of the reflections that are not inside the shape) when layering it on top, and preserving the alpha channels.

All the examples I can find online do it like this;

I am trying to convert a bunch of svg images into png. Below is the snippet of the Imagick part:

While running the Pimcore6.9 along with the symfony4.4 I had spotted some warnings:

The MimetypeGuesser is depricated since symfony4.3 use MimeTypes instead.

I have a utility class that loads image files and, among other operations, converts them to other formats. It uses PHP GD.

Everything works fine except PNG files that have transparency are done wrong when converting to WebP. The result image has a black background where the transparency should be.

This is my code:

The Instagram image ratio requirements are:

• 1:1
• 4:5
• 1.91:1
• 16:9

Readed here and here. The documentation also says:

(...) Advise the app user to try again with an image that falls withing a 4:5 to 1.91:1 range.

Althought the documentation doesn't say, I know for a fact that publishing a photo with 1:1 ratio works.

So I would like to check if the image uploaded meets the requirements and if not resize to meet them (either by downsizing or upsizing). I'm using Laravel with Image Intervention library.

To check the aspect ratio, I'm using the following code:

There are many PHP solutions and WP plugins, they all come with additional options that I don't want/need, i.e. how the converted files are served, where they are stored, etc.

I need none of all that and am after pure simple code using GD. I don't want to use a plugin, thank you.

1. When should the encode happen ? At any time you know it is a good point in the hook routine, could be this https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/11/05/use-of-the-wp_update_attachment_metadata-filter-as-upload-is-complete-hook/ but if you know better or have another solution then use that and possibly let me know why you choose another hook. I would i.e. also be happy with firing a cron job once new images are uploaded if that is better. Also I don't need to have metadata of the converted images in the WP db, fine with having the original .jpeg files and their metadata in the Media Library, the .webp files are just there to be used inside the picture element.

2. Where should the converted files be stored? wp-content/uploads/ default folder structure, .webp files should be next to .jpeg files all in there.

3. GD image engine should be used for the conversion. https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_image_editor_gd/ Lately I find imagick just crashes or takes ages to do anything. In WP 5.2 things still worked just fine with imagick but there must have been changes introduced that make using imagick in later versions of WP useless. I find GD to me quite stable and fast, it does not matter it creates lossy WebP versions. The methods for the GD image engine from WP do not seem to include conversion/encoding https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_image_editor_gd/#methods so I am also happy with any methods using in the GD module https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.image.php concerning encoding to WebP.

4. To get rid of all the extra unneeded image sizes and options WP introduced over time I have these functions/filters in functions.php.

With imagick command, i want to resize image form 2Mb to 200KB, i tried:

I'm trying to open an image with Intervention

I have 2 Dockerfiles: one with nginx and another with php. Container with php exposes port 9000, but it is not described in docker-compose.yml or Dockerfile.

What makes docker to open the port 9000?

Does anyone come across this problem? Any help is be appreciated )))

Steps to reproduce

docker-compose.yml
