Introduction
PerlMagick, is an objected-oriented Perl interface to GraphicsMagick.
Use the module to read, manipulate, or write an image or image
sequence from within a Perl script. This makes it suitable for Web
CGI scripts. You must have GraphicsMagick 1.2 or above installed on
your system for this module to work properly.
See
http://www.graphicsmagick.org/www/perl.html
for additional information about PerlMagick. See
http://www.graphicsmagick.org/
for instructions about installing GraphicsMagick.
Installation
PerlMagick is configured by default by GraphicsMagick in order to
create a starting Makefile.PL. Additional edits to Makefile.PL
may be required. GraphicsMagick does not provide a seperate
distribution of PerlMagick. Please follow the applicable steps
described here in order to complete the installation of
PerlMagick.
Get the GraphicsMagick distribution and type the following:
gunzip -c GraphicsMagick-1.2.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
cd GraphicsMagick
./configure --enable-shared
make
su root (if necessary)
make install
cd PerlMagick
If you used GraphicsMagick configure then Makefile.PL should already
be prepared for use. If not, or you want to change a setting, then
edit Makefile.PL and change LIBS and INC to include the appropriate
path information to the required libGraphicsMagick library. You will
also need library search paths (-L) to JPEG, PNG, TIFF, etc.
libraries if they were included with your installed version of
GraphicsMagick. If an extension library is built as a shared library
but not installed in the system's default library search path, you
may need to add run-path information (often -R or -rpath)
corresponding to the equivalent library search path option so that
the library can be located at run-time.
To create and install the dymamically-loaded version of
PerlMagick (the preferred way), execute
perl Makefile.PL
make
su root (if necessary)
make install
[ Note that the following procedure for building a static
PerlMagick seems to work only for perl 5.8.8 and earlier ]
To create and install a new 'perl' executable (replacing your
existing PERL interpreter!) with PerlMagick statically linked
(but other libraries linked statically or dynamically according
to system linker default), execute
perl Makefile.PL
make perl
make -f Makefile.aperl inst_perl
or to create and install a new PERL interpreter with a
different name than 'perl' (e.g. 'PerlMagick') and with
PerlMagick statically linked
perl Makefile.PL MAP_TARGET=PerlMagick
make PerlMagick
make -f Makefile.aperl inst_perl
See the ExtUtils::MakeMaker(3) manual page for more information on
building PERL extensions (like PerlMagick).
For Windows systems, type
perl Makefile.nt
nmake install
For Unix, you typically need to be root to install the software.
There are ways around this. Consult the Perl manual pages for more
information. You are now ready to utilize the PerlMagick routines
from within your Perl scripts.
Testing PerlMagick
Before PerlMagick is installed, you may want to execute
make test
to verify that PERL can load the PerlMagick extension ok. Chances
are some of the tests will fail if you do not have the proper
delegates installed for formats like JPEG, TIFF, etc. If 'make
test' fails in some gruesome way (e.g. many tests fail), then it
is advised not to install PerlMagick until the problem is
resolved.
To see a number of PerlMagick demonstration scripts, type
cd demo
make
Example Perl Magick Script
Here is an example script to get you started:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Graphics::Magick;
$q = Graphics::Magick->new;
$x = $q->Read("model.gif", "logo.gif", "rose.gif");
warn "$x" if $x;
$x = $q->Crop(geom=>'100x100+100+100');
warn "$x" if $x;
$x = $q->Write("x.gif");
warn "$x" if $x;
The script reads three images, crops them, and writes a single
image as a GIF animation sequence.
