filter

There are two kinds of filters which you can define: one operates on doc level and one on version level.

Document Filter

This filter is called with one argument: document.

Version Filter

This filter is called with two arguments, document and attachment name.

content_type

Content-Type of the resulting attachment. Default is image/jpeg.

id

The document id where the version is stored. Defaults to {id}/{version}.

Can have the following placeholders:

• id - the original doc id
• parts - array of the id splitted at /
• version - name of the version

name

The attachment name of the version. Default is {basename}-{version}{extname}.

Can have placeholders:

• id - the original doc id
• parts - array of the id splitted at /
• version - name of the version
• name - original attachment name, eg this/is/my-image.jpg
• extname - file extenstion of the original attachment name, eg .jpg
• basename - basename without extension, eg my-image
• dirname - directory name, eg this/is
• version - name of the version

args

Array of argument strings for ImageMagicks convert.

The default is ['-', 'jpg:-'], which means that ImageMagick converts the image to jpg. You can see that we use convert with pipes for in- and output.

See ImageMagick Convert Command-line Tool for a comprehensive list of options.

Options

couchmagick-stream accepts an optional options object as third parameter:

• concurrency - Number of simultanous processes. Default is 1.
• convert_process_timeout - Timeout for convert process. Default is 1 minute.

You can run an example (examples/thumbnails.js):
