Django Advance Thumbnail

Django Advance Thumbnail is a Django app that automates thumbnail creation for image fields. It generates, updates, and deletes thumbnails based on the source image, and allows custom thumbnail sizes.

Installation

1. Install the package using pip:

pip install django_advance_thumbnail

2. Add django_advance_thumbnail to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    'django_advance_thumbnail',
    # ...
]

Usage

Here's a basic example of how to use the AdvanceDJThumbnailField in a model:

from django.db import models

from django_advance_thumbnail import AdvanceThumbnailField


class MyModel(models.Model):
    image = models.ImageField(upload_to='images/', null=True, blank=True)
    thumbnail = AdvanceThumbnailField(source_field='image', upload_to='thumbnails/', null=True, blank=True,
                                      size=(300, 300)) 

In this example, AdvanceDJThumbnailField is used to create a thumbnail from the image field. Whenever an image is uploaded or updated, a corresponding thumbnail is automatically generated and stored in the thumbnail field. The thumbnail's dimensions are determined by the optional size parameter, which defaults to (300, 300) if not specified.

This setup ensures that the lifecycle of the thumbnail is tied to its source image. If the source image is deleted, the associated thumbnail is also removed. This seamless synchronization simplifies image management in your Django models.
