There are some ways to compress images. JPGs lose quality, but PNGs support lossless compression. TinyPNG is one of several services that does that with sound defaults.

I made a plugin for it. It will automatically compress each image (.png or .jpg), directly after the upload. Already uploaded images won't be touched.

It would be great if this could be further tested before going to spartacus :) I also take feature requests.

I'll try to test this soon. You mentioned existing images would not be touched. Could that be an option?

It could be something on adds later. Currently it can't work well, you only have 500 free API-calls per month.

Who only has 500 free API calls per month?

The developer API for the TinyPNG web interface.

You only pay for what you use. The first 500 compressions each month are free. You will only be billed if you compress more than 500 images.

I assume every plugin user will have to get their own API key, otherwise it doesn't really make sense (to me).

Yes. The description of the API Key option explains where to get the key. Without it won't work.

Hi,

I just get this error when uploading an image with the new plugin installed:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function Tinify\curl_version() in /var/www/vps.hommel-net.de/serendipity/plugins/serendipity_event_tinypng/tinify-php/lib/Tinify/Client.php on line 11

The image is in the media library after this error but it's not compressed.

Regards
Mario

Is it possible that you have no php curl module active? A package like php-curl?

I will have a look whether the Tinyfy-Client really needs it, but that is possible.

That was the thing. The debian package is php5-curl. After installing it the error is gone.
It seems that the API of TinyPNG has counted my tries with the error, too.

I now pushed this to Spartacus: https://github.com/s9y/additional_plugi ... d6009e55f2
