4If making an imagemagick binary tarball, here are the steps to go through and the things to check
5
6
7TO CREATE THE IMAGEMAGICK TARBALL FOR DARWIN EL CAPITAN
8
90. Need to be on an El Capitan that should not have xwindows (like Dr Bainbridge's El Capitan laptop), so that we don't produce imagemagick binaries dependent on these libs, see trac changeset 31012.
10
11For general information: An important change involved setting the mmacosx-version-min=10.8, in order to get the generated imagemagick binary to work on more Mac El Capitan machines, as explained in the commit message for http://trac.greenstone.org/changeset/31145:
12"Redoing El Capitan imgmagick binary for release after testing on an uncooperative El Cap Mac machine. The key change involved recompiling with mmacosx-version-min=10.8 (Mountain Lion) to make the binary more backwards compatible."
13
141. svn co http://svn.greenstone.org/gs2-extensions/imagemagick/trunk
15
162. Then:
17 cd src
18 ./CASCADE-MAKE.sh
19
203. See section THINGS TO CHECK below and perform the tests there to check the compiled up imagemagick works.
21
224. Create an imagemagick folder containing only setup.bash, setup.bat and the darwin folder.
23
24The darwin folder should only contain the following 4 folders, so remove the rest:
25- script
26- etc
27- lib
28- bin: cut down to just the following
29 Magick++-config
30 Magick-config
31 MagickCore-config
32 MagickWand-config
33 Wand-config
34 identify
35 convert
36
37Note: As per the El Capitan release-kit (kits/rk3/ant-scripts/compile.xml), only the darwin folder within the tarball (and not the setup scripts) will get copied over as the "imagemagick" folder into gs2build/bin/darwin. (So the "darwin" folder will be named "imagemagick" in the final binary.)
38
395. Create a tarball of the imagemagick folder created in step 4 above (containing the darwin subfolder and the 2 setup scripts) and name the tarball imagemagick-darwin-10.11.tar.gz
40
41 tar -cvzf imagemagick-darwin-10.11.tar.gz imagemagick
42
436. Commit the tarball into the trunk folder checked out in step 1 above.
44
45
46THINGS TO CHECK
47
48To test imagemagick works:
49
501. ./identify -list format
51
52It should print out the list of image conversion formats supported. Check the read/write status of the listed file formats: we want r,w (read and write abilities) for GIF, JPG, PNG, TIFF.
53
542. Next run
55 ./convert logo: logo.png
56
57This will (should) generate a file called logo.png in the same location.
58Check that it is indeed PNG by running:
59
60 file logo.png
61
62The file info printed should say whether it's PNG. If things went wrong, the actual file produced might be listed as GIF still. In that case, the conversion was unsuccessful, which means something could be wrong with the delegate/imgmagick library for that image file format. Check for any errors when configuring and compiling up that delegate library.

79./convert
80different listing of formats supported?
81
82
83depends on:
84- version of imgmagick (src code)
85- whether it uses xwindows libraries or not
86-> macs used to come with xwindows libraries, and imgmagick used to make use of that. But now Macs aren't guaranteed to come with xwindows libs, so for El Capitan binaries, compile up ImageMagick tarball on Gilda El Capitan (which produces bins not dependent on xwindows libs), rather than generating the tarball on the ElCap laptop where xwin libs are available and dynamically linked to (but these libs are then found missing on other El Capitan machines like Gilda, and the convert command will fail).
