DummyImageSource doesn't work with libvips about sitegeist.kaleidoscope HOT 7 CLOSED

@Sebobo Not sure what we can do here. What does the dummy image controller return instead of the image I would expect an error message instead of the image plus some meaningful info in the logs.

I understand that its will be hard to spot as the browsers will include the dummyimage as a src and thus the error is hard to spot. But i am not sure how to circumvent this.

I did not reproduce the error since i have no vips at hand If no status 500 is returned i would consider it a bug and work in this.

How about catching the exception and return the link to a static image/svg that contains some "rendering error" text?

Then it's immediately visible what's going on, and maybe we could even make it configurable.

@mficzel A configuration for vips looks like this:

Neos:
  Imagine:
    driver: 'Vips'
    enabledDrivers:
      Vips: true
      Gd: true
      Imagick: true
  Media:
    image:
      defaultOptions:
        # The Vips driver does not support interlace
        interlace: ~

Perhaps it could solve the problem to check if the driver is Vips and get the enabled Drivers (In this case Imagick) and use this library. Would this be a way to go?

If this is a problem more than one person has i agree the best way is to integrate a default error image and a try-catch block.

If anyone provides a pr for this i can review it.

In a Ngnix environment, it is possible the set the FLOW_CONTEXT based on the requested path. On Apache, I couldn't get it running. In those circumstances, I can't use this Package with vips and Apache.

• Would it possible to include the behavior I explained above?
• Or why not create an SVG? It would be a) faster and b) would not use any library

@jonnitto did you try recent versions of kaleidoscope? They should fallback to an error image at least when the generation of dummyimages yields an error

Yes, this error image works, but I would prefer the dummy picture with the text/dimensions
