Voting: Do you need a directive generate thumbnails for images in standard module package?

[nervgh]

Yes/no? Comments are optional.

Demo - uploads only images (with canvas preview)

[RastoStric]

For me no.

[kurtfunai]

No

Comments:
I don't need it - but I do like the idea of it being optional.
It is included in the blueimp file upload that many people are used to (http://blueimp.github.io/jQuery-File-Upload/angularjs.html)

Yes, I didn't realise that it wasn't in the standard module because I downloaded the min.js version and couldn't understand why the example code wasn't producing thumbnails on my test. Very confusing to leave it in the examples and not include it in the package.

No, I like creating my own directive for it.

[martinsznapka]

Yes

Yes

[stevesuh]

Yes

[alexandr2110pro]

yes

But just a very basic implementation with maximum flexibility.

"flexibility" is the first motivation to use your plugin.

If i will someday need a plugin that will do everything for me i'll take another one. But i will keep in mind, that such decision will force me to use strict flow and exact implementation scenario.

But can hardly imagine the real-life reason to do so.

for image uploads, this is crucial. I was previously using v0.5 and I was able to generate thumbnails manually:

uploader.onAfterAddingFile = function(item) {
      var _URL = $window.URL || $window.webkitURL;
      var img = new Image();
      img.onload = function() {
        if (this.width !== 1200 || this.height !== 627) {
          uploader.removeFromQueue(item);
          toastr.error('Image size is not 1200x627!');
          scope.$apply();
        }
      };
      img.src = _URL.createObjectURL(item.file);
      item.imgSrc = img.src;
      updateSrcs();
    };

however now, since the item.file is a FileLikeObject, this doesn't work anymore.
