Django Daguerre makes it easy to adjust images on-the-fly without slowing down your templates and without needing to generate everything ahead of time with a cron job. You don't need to make any changes to your models; it Just Works.

{% load daguerre %}
<img src="{% adjust my_model.image "fill" width=200 height=400 %}" />

{% adjust_bulk my_queryset "method.image" "fill" width=200 height=400 as adjusted_list %}
{% for my_model, image in adjusted_list %}
  <img src="{{ image }}" />
{% endfor %}

build status

• Python 2.7+, 3.3+
• Pillow 2.3.0+
• Django 1.7+
• Six 1.5.2+

Daguerre may work with earlier versions of these packages, but they are not officially supported.

Daguerre 2.1 and up use native Django migrations. If you are migrating from Daguerre 1.0, and you have manually created data (for example Areas) that you want to preserve, you must first upgrade to Daguerre 2.0, run the migrations included in that version, and then upgrade to Daguerre 2.1.

This migration path would look as follows:

$ cd path/to/my/project
$ pip install django-daguerre==2.0.0
$ python manage.py migrate daguerre
$ pip install -U django-daguerre
$ python manage.py migrate daguerre 0001 --fake
$ python manage.py migrate daguerre

If you don't have any manual data to preserve, and if it would not adversely affect your site, you can also use the following migration path:

$ cd path/to/my/project
$ python manage.py migrate daguerre zero # Or manually delete the daguerre tables
$ pip install -U django-daguerre
$ python manage.py migrate daguerre
$ python manage.py daguerre clean

You can install the latest version of Daguerre using pip:

$ pip install django-daguerre

You can clone the repository yourself at https://github.com/littleweaver/django-daguerre.

Ensure that 'daguerre' is in your project's INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = (

    ...
)

Add the following or similar anywhere in your URLconf:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^daguerre/', include('daguerre.urls')),
    ...
)

We recommend running tox from the repository's root directory, but you can also run test_project/manage.py test daguerre.
