Ruth's first Twinkie Ruth Kinniburgh-White A young woman with dark brown wavy hair and wearing an orange tank top, is sitting inside a car and is being silly by smelling a recently opened Twinkie. At some point in the evening, I was informed by the Kiwis that not only had neither of them ever had a Twinkie, but that they didn't even know what a Twinkie was. On the way back to my apartment we stopped at the local Exxon TigerMart and I bought them each their first (and presumably only) Twinkie.

Configuring ImageMagick RAW Delegates with DCRAW and UFRAW Batch It s not very often that I take the time to make technical posts for all of the complexities that go into my personal website but this one was so frustrating and time consuming that I figured I would share my findings with the world I ve also been having to do a lot of ImageMagick work in my professional life lately and so I fully understand the frustration of not having good documentation on some of this strong u The problem u strong I have a bunch of CR2 files in my photo gallery RAW image files shot on a Cannon I am using ImageMagick for a bunch of different processing components including resizing the images for my gallery Unfortunately ImageMagick was failing due to UFRAW batch not being found The error would look something like this pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash convert delegate failed ufraw batch silent wb camera black point auto exposure auto create id also out type png out depth 16 output u png i error delegate c InvokeDelegate 1061 code pre After doing a ton of research and trying to hunt down ways to make ufraw batch work with ImageMagick I finally went down a different path of deciding to configure DCRAW as my RAW file ImageMagick delegate This method wound up working perfectly but it does require some special configuring I ve detailed that process below strong u Assumptions u strong The following installation was done on an Amazon AMI instance essentially a CentOS machine with ImageMagick 6 7 8 9 2015 10 08 Q16 installed It also assumes the user has ROOT access and that all of the steps are performed as ROOT strong u Installing DCRAW u strong ul li If you haven t already sudo to root br pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash su

u strong At this point you may find that you need to install the em liblcms em dependency If this has happened then the installation of your RPM package will have failed If DCRAW installed without any problems then skip to the libJpeg section below If there was a dependency problem take a look at the following ul li Download liblcms br pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash wget

br strong u Installing libJpeg for cjpeg u strong At this point DCRAW should be installed on your system The best you ll really be able to do is to convert to either a TIFF file or get a raw stream of JPG The problem with the RAW stream assuming you re wanting to export to a jpeg as most people will want to do is that it doesn t help you to actually compress the JPG stream into a usable file If you try to simply pipe the STDOUT to a file xxx jpg for example the image won t load as it won t be properly compressed for jpeg specs You ll need to use em cjpeg em or a similar tool to accomplish this final piece ul li Download cjpeg br pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash wget http downloads sourceforge net libjpeg turbo libjpeg turbo 1 4 2 tar gz code pre li li Unzip the gzip file and extract the tarball br pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash gunzip libjpeg turbo 1 4 2 tar gz br tar xvf libjpeg turbo 1 4 2 tar code pre li li Go into the newly extracted directory and install libjpeg br pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash cd libjpeg turbo 1 4 2 br configure br make br make install code pre li ul br strong u Testing cjpeg u strong At this point you should have DCRAW any necessary dependencies and cjpeg installed on your system Incidentally cjpeg will likely have been installed to em opt libjpeg turbo bin cjpeg em If you can t find it do the following ul li Update the mlocate database and find the jpeg tool br pre style width 480px white space pre wrap code class bash updatedb br locate cjpeg code pre li ul From here you ll have the fully qualified path of where the cjpeg executable lives Mine was installed to em opt libjpeg turbo bin cjpeg em which I assume is a standard location for this program br strong u Configuring ImageMagick Delegates u strong So the final part of this process is to configure the RAW delegate for ImageMagick so that instead of trying to use em ufraw batch em it instead uses your newly installed em dcraw em u Be sure to backup your delegates xml file before making any changes to the file You can break your installation of ImageMagick if you re not careful u ul li
