- Imagecache Actions roadmap
- --------------------------
- This is a non-contractual roadmap for the D7 branch of the imagecache actions
- module. Actual release dates and completed features will largely depend on
- available time. So support is always welcome. Furthermore, critical bugs may
- make us release more often, but that should only change the release number in
- which certain features are planned, not the timeline.
- Imagecache Actions 7.x-1.0
- --------------------------
- Targeted release date: may 2012
- - (DONE) Clean up D7 issue queue
- - (DONE) Commit posted patches from the issue queue
- - (DONE) Solve easy to solve bug reports
- - Do some basic testing
- - (DONE) Reintroduce the text action, currently living in a sandbox project at
- http://drupal.org/node/1090312
- - (DONE) Update README.txt
- - (DONE) Introduce CHANGELOG.txt
- - (DONE) Add this ROADMAP.txt
- Imagecache Actions 7.x-1.1
- --------------------------
- Targeted release date: end 2012
- Mainly a bug fix release
- - (DONE) Solve remaining outstanding bug reports
- - (ALMOST DONE) Keep D7 issue queue clean
- Imagecache Actions 7.x-1.2
- --------------------------
- Targeted release date: spring 2013
- - Check help and documentation. a.o: hook_help, effect descriptions.
- - Continue to keep the D7 issue queue clean.
- - Improve Imagemagick support and/or document what effects are not working for
- which toolkit (version).
- - Check that all effects implement all of the effects API (especially the
- dimensions callback).
- - Add testing. The idea is to create a set of image styles that cover all
- effects and can be used to visually check for regressions.
- Automated testing would be nice, but I am not sure that we can guarantee that
- jpeg or png files are binary identical on each run across different computers.
- But if the number of false positives is small, it would certainly be a useful
- addition.
- Imagecache Actions 7.x-1.3
- --------------------------
- Targeted release date: ...
- - Look at outstanding feature requests
- - Continue to keep the D7 issue queue clean
- - Keep improving Imagemagick support, a.o:
- - Try to get insight into what version of imagemagick is required by what
- effect.
- - Document which effects might produce different results.
- - Refactor code
- - Extract common form fields
- - Extract common error handling
- - (STARTED) Clean up comments, todo's, etc.
- - (STARTED) Doxygen code documentation according to latest standards
- - Increase the amount of lazy loaded code
- Imagecache Actions 7.x-2.x
- --------------------------
- Targeted release date: ...
- - Can we refactor effects into auto loading class based plugins? What does
- CTools offer in these? How do D8 core effects do this?
- - If so, will it make implementing new effects much simpler? Because that is
- what we should strive for.
- - Should we rename the module to image_effects?
- - If we manage to provide an easy to use plugin system, we should strive to
- merge with other modules that provide effects:
- - FiltersIE module (http://drupal.org/project/filtersie)
- - Imagecache Effects: http://drupal.org/project/imagecache_effects (D6 only,
- but are their effects more advanced then our counterparts or do they add new
- effects?)
- - Image watermark: http://drupal.org/project/watermark (D5 only, but is their
- watermark effect more advanced?)
- - ImageCache Scale-9 Actions: http://drupal.org/project/imagecache_scale9actions
- - etc.
