2. Add eximagination to INSTALLED_APPS.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    # ...
    'eximagination',
    # ...
)

3. Configure

By default, django-eximagination expects your files to be stored in /media/external_images directory. If location varies, redefine the directories in your Django settings, make sure the path is writable and that www-data (or whatever is applicable) has rights to write into it.

import os

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, '..', '..', 'media')
EXIMAGINATION_MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(MEDIA_ROOT, 'external_images')
EXIMAGINATION_MEDIA_URL = '/media/external_images'
EXIMAGINATION_MEDIA_RELATIVE_ROOT = 'external_images/'
# After 30 days we re-fetch the file anyway.
EXIMAGINATION_EXPIRATION_INTERVAL = 2592000

Usage example (in a Django template)

See the example directory for working code example.

Example #1:

{% load eximaginate %}

<img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{% eximaginate 'http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif' %}">

Example #2:

{% load eximaginate thumbnail %}

{% eximaginate 'http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif' as original %}

<img src="{% thumbnail original 100x100 %}">

In both cases there are two additional context variables added:

• ei_width - Width of the image

• ei_height - Height of the image
