# frozen_string_literal: true

# Image blobs can have variants that are the result of a set of transformations applied to the original.
# These variants are used to create thumbnails, fixed-size avatars, or any other derivative image from the
# original.
#
# Variants rely on {MiniMagick}(https://github.com/minimagick/minimagick) for the actual transformations
# of the file, so you must add <tt>gem "mini_magick"</tt> to your Gemfile if you wish to use variants.
#
# Note that to create a variant it's necessary to download the entire blob file from the service and load it
# into memory. The larger the image, the more memory is used. Because of this process, you also want to be
# considerate about when the variant is actually processed. You shouldn't be processing variants inline in a
# template, for example. Delay the processing to an on-demand controller, like the one provided in
# ActiveStorage::VariantsController.
#
# To refer to such a delayed on-demand variant, simply link to the variant through the resolved route provided
# by Active Storage like so:
#
#   <%= image_tag url_for(Current.user.avatar.variant(resize: "100x100")) %>
#
# This will create a URL for that specific blob with that specific variant, which the ActiveStorage::VariantsController
# can then produce on-demand.
#
# When you do want to actually produce the variant needed, call +processed+. This will check that the variant
# has already been processed and uploaded to the service, and, if so, just return that. Otherwise it will perform
# the transformations, upload the variant to the service, and return itself again. Example:
#
#   avatar.variant(resize: "100x100").processed.service_url
#
# This will create and process a variant of the avatar blob that's constrained to a height and width of 100.
# Then it'll upload said variant to the service according to a derivative key of the blob and the transformations.
#
# A list of all possible transformations is available at https://www.imagemagick.org/script/mogrify.php. You can
# combine as many as you like freely:
#
#   avatar.variant(resize: "100x100", monochrome: true, flip: "-90")

  end

  # Returns the URL of the variant on the service. This URL is intended to be short-lived for security and not used directly
  # with users. Instead, the +service_url+ should only be exposed as a redirect from a stable, possibly authenticated URL.
  # Hiding the +service_url+ behind a redirect also gives you the power to change services without updating all URLs. And
  # it allows permanent URLs that redirect to the +service_url+ to be cached in the view.
  #
  # Use <tt>url_for(variant)</tt> (or the implied form, like +link_to variant+ or +redirect_to variant+) to get the stable URL
  # for a variant that points to the ActiveStorage::VariantsController, which in turn will use this +service_call+ method
  # for its redirection.
