Has anybody used Cloudinary together with Coldfusion/Railo/Lucee? RestAPI to use?

[thorste...@googlemail.com‏]

Hi,

http://cloudinary.com/ to handle image processing and storing looks interesting.

Has anybody used Cloudinary together with Coldfusion/Railo/Lucee?

Would be the best way to use their RestAPI together with lucee?

Regards
Thorsten

Says it's a REST API, so I guess using cfhttp?

I’m using it with Lucee. I have a component I wrote to do what I need using the REST API via http calls. It’s pretty basic but gets the job done. If I recall correctly the trickiest part was getting the signature right. Actually, yeah that was a real PITA.

I can share some code with you if you want.

If there is a java client for an API, I usually try that first... and there is: https://github.com/cloudinary/cloudinary_java

Occasionally you will find that there are a ton of dependencies or that the java API is harder to use than rolling your own implementation, but it is often far less work (especially in the long run, I have found) to go with a Java API client. I am just speaking in general from my experience using various java api clients for web services, I haven't used Cloudinary specifically.

Thanks at all! When I have some time I will investigate it further. Thorsten

With cloudinary now supporting external sources you can use the service these days without even using the api. We now store the source images in our own s3 bucket and simply craft url's pointing directly at the source image.

e.g source image is:

http://yaffacdn.s3.amazonaws.com/live/photogroup/images/yafPOTYEntry/sourceImage/CD9BC770-6676-11E4-9C3F02A167D272B4/andre_lowkey_3.jpg

Crafted url is:

https://res.cloudinary.com/yaffa-publishing/image/fetch/fl_keep_iptc,c_fit,h_520/http%3A%2F%2Fyaffacdn.s3.amazonaws.com%2Flive%2Fphotogroup%2Fimages%2FyafPOTYEntry%2FsourceImage%2FCD9BC770-6676-11E4-9C3F02A167D272B4%2Fandre_lowkey_3.jpg

The image was uploaded direct to s3 without ever going via the web server. A basic example of that:

https://aws.amazon.com/articles/Java/1434

Though you can use things like plupload for a better user experience.

Hey Sean, I wouldn't mind taking a look at what you did for your component.  Save me some time getting the signature.

Let me know if you still have it around.  Do you have a github repo for it?

Thanks,
Curt

It's in a private repo ATM but here is a gist of the component:
