I know there is a way to convert several images to gif animation with Rmagic, however I want to do the opposite. When uploading an animated gif, I want it to be non-animated, how can I do that ? (single/any image from image stream is good enough)
I'll use this as a part of carrierwave with Rmagic reprocessoring on thumbnails
from https://stackoverflow.com/a/13441569/473040
class DocumentUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base
include CarrierWave::RMagick
#...
version :thumb do
process :remove_animation
process :resize_to_fill => [300,200]
#....
end
def remove_animation
# this will keep only first image of animated gif
manipulate! do |img, index|
index == 0 ? img : nil
end
end
