Re: Storing Sorl-thumbnail created images in separate folder

It looks like the latest version of solr-thumnails or the version that i have currently installed supports THUMBNAIL_STORAGE. When i checked i could see a file under the path solr/thumbnail called defaults.py. In this file there are following options 

DEBUG = False

BASEDIR = ''

SUBDIR = ''

PREFIX = ''

QUALITY = 85

CONVERT = '/usr/bin/convert'

WVPS = '/usr/bin/wvPS'

EXTENSION = 'jpg'

PROCESSORS = (

    'sorl.thumbnail.processors.colorspace',

    'sorl.thumbnail.processors.autocrop',

    'sorl.thumbnail.processors.scale_and_crop',

    'sorl.thumbnail.processors.filters',

)

IMAGEMAGICK_FILE_TYPES = ('eps', 'pdf', 'psd')

which i guess can be overridden from the django settings file. Here there is BASEDIR and SUBDIR and i guess those are the settings to be used but not sure. When i tried to override the default i could see no change. So anyone having experience in setting the same please let me know. 

Thanks and Regards,

Have you tried changing the THUMBNAIL_STORAGE setting? I haven't done what you ask for but you should give it a try.

Thanks Kelly, could you tell me what all settings you had provided for it to cache into a separate directory?

It always just caches the files for me in a completely different directory.

Hello All,

I am using sorl-thumbnail extensively in my project. It works perfectly fine except for one issue which is regarding the storage. The default behaviour of sorl-thumbnail is to create the images in the same folder where the original image is stored. Is it possible to provide a separate location for storage of generated file rather than the source folder? I could find a setting called THUMBNAIL_STORAGE, is it the one to be used? I am not able to figure it out from the documentation. If yes then should i provide the absolute or relative path?

Thanks and Regards,
