need be we can do something like --fake-thumbnail-urls to make thumbnail urls
point to the full images.
My feeling is that GIFT is often used in environment, where the images are not
served to a community, but rather used as a backend to some PHP where the
MRML server itself is not reachable, or not intended to be reached. This
seems to be the case for you, Jonas, and in this case I find it more proper
to suppress the attribute altogether.
IF you intend to run the GIFT as MRML server with a reachable and advertised
MRML port, then I would find it useful to use a --fake-thumbnail-urls option
as suggested above, because I am not sure who wrote when which app that
relies on the thumbnail attribute.
Please find attached a version of gift-add-collection.pre-pl that
implements these ideas. There are now options:
--no-thumbnails: prevents thumbnails from being generated, and by
default causes the thumbnail-url-postfix to be suppressed
--fake-thumbnails: implies --no-thumbnails w.r.t. thumbnail generation,
but causes the same URL as in the url-postfix attribute to be used for
the thumbnail-url-postfix attribute.
Both have been set up so that they can be set in the
.gift-add-collection file with lines like:
fake-thumbnails="1"
I have tested these using my client, and they work as expected - there
seems not to be any problems on the server side.
I would be glad if someone using another client could test before I
commit it.
Cheers,
David
PS. Jonas, simply using '--fake-thumbnails' should do what you want.
