hitesh.manchanda Report post Posted January 13, 2009 I would like to know if there is any available ruby script for image saving as is available for php,asp.net and jsp based applications. I developed one of my own scripts by studying the available script but when i run the script to save the application the memory allocation fails. For more insight into this i would like to mention that I am using Rmagick library for image conversion and saving and it seems it's not able to allocate memory properly. Can someone provide me help on this as i am into urgent need for such a script to finish off my project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

srividya_sharma Report post Posted January 15, 2009 The upcoming release of FusionCharts may have a RoR script for generating image, using MiniMagick and ImageMagick. Do you think MiniMagick is easier to install/use than RMagick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hitesh.manchanda Report post Posted January 27, 2009 Well I have used Rmagick and its pretty easy to use as I has its own functional wrappers for Image Magick library. As far as I know minimagick does not support image composition which was required in my case as I had to make a new image object out of fusion chart. So i think Rmagick is useful for that.

srividya_sharma Report post Posted January 29, 2009 Can you tell me the O/S in which you have RMagick installed? I found it difficult to install on Windows. If possible, please give me guidelines on how to install RMagick on Windows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hitesh.manchanda Report post Posted February 2, 2009 In order to install RMagick you first need to install the IMAGE MAGICK in your system.Then u need to download the gem RMagick and follow the way the gems are installed locally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
srividya_sharma Report post Posted February 9, 2009 Got RMagick working! 1. The delegates for ImageMaigck had to be installed. 2. Visual C++ 2008 had to be installed. In Windows XP SP2, I had VC++ 2005 only. Thanks for the help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhulick Report post Posted July 1, 2009 Which delegates were needed? All of them? Also, does anyone know if RMagick 1 works completely with FusionCharts v3? We have an issue installing RMagick 2 on our RH Linux system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
srividya_sharma Report post Posted July 1, 2009 Hi I followed the instructions here: http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/install-faq.html#imprereq Downloaded and installed the delegates as mentioned there. Also as per http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows, ( at the bottom ) it says, "If you have any problems, install the Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) or Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x64)." for windows. These two steps helped me install RMagick successfully. FusionCharts was tested with and works with RMagick 2.9.0. It uses basic features of RMagick, so it might work with previous versions also. I would recommend you to install ImageMagick successfully, test with command line convert logo: logo.gif Once ImageMagick is installed and tested, proceed to install RMagick. I am not sure if this link will help, please see http://www.imagemagick.org/script/advanced-unix-installation.php regards, Srividya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

srividya_sharma Report post Posted August 18, 2009 Hi The latest version of FusionCharts provides the complete ruby on rails framework for exporting the chart as image. Please use that. regards, Srividya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abhishek Patel Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Hi, I looked in to the latest export code of sample Rails 3 application. as you told before , this version may use minimagick or image magick instead of Rmagick, but unfortunately still the given example app uses Rmagick only. I am using that code in one of my app, but a major problem is that Rmagick is leaking memory and hence hangs my server, it takes almost 99% memory in all cases. i tried several ways to get around this, but no luck. I would like to request you to provide some sample code of export using mini magick or Rmagick. or at least provide me some guideline that how i can use minimagick to convert the stream i got from export to an image.
