Ask HN: service api for image processing

2 pointsminalecs3 comments

Does anyone know of a service provider that has a good api to send an image for resize? Would be preferable that this service could automatically dump the images into my s3 account. Also would help if there is gem for it too but not necessary.

In addition to video inputs, we also can convert popular image formats including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF.

Once completed, tell us where to deliver the encoded files: FTP / SFTP, your CDN or cloud storage location

http://www.appspotimage.com/ has an api built for that. Also this is builtin to the app engine api (thats what they use) so if you feel like doing a little python hacking you can make one yourself that will send it to s3.

thanks ill check it out.
