Verify ImageMagick installation

Question

My web hosting said ImageMagic has been pre-installed on the server. I did a quick search for \"ImageMagick\" in the output of phpinfo() and I found nothing. I can\'t SSH in

Answer 1

EDIT: The info and script below only applies to iMagick class - which is not added by default with ImageMagick!!!

If I want to know if imagemagick is installed and actually working as a php extension, I paste this snippet into a web accessible file

newPseudoImage(50, 50, "gradient:red-black");

/* Create imagickdraw object */
$draw = new ImagickDraw();

/* Start a new pattern called "gradient" */
$draw->pushPattern('gradient', 0, 0, 50, 50);

/* Composite the gradient on the pattern */
$draw->composite(Imagick::COMPOSITE_OVER, 0, 0, 50, 50, $im);

/* Close the pattern */
$draw->popPattern();

/* Use the pattern called "gradient" as the fill */
$draw->setFillPatternURL('#gradient');

/* Set font size to 52 */
$draw->setFontSize(52);

/* Annotate some text */
$draw->annotation(20, 50, "Hello World!");

/* Create a new canvas object and a white image */
$canvas = new Imagick();
$canvas->newImage(350, 70, "white");

/* Draw the ImagickDraw on to the canvas */
$canvas->drawImage($draw);

/* 1px black border around the image */
$canvas->borderImage('black', 1, 1);

/* Set the format to PNG */
$canvas->setImageFormat('png');

/* Output the image */
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $canvas;
?>

You should see a hello world graphic:
