Exposes global functionality for creating image styles.

Code

function image_style_url($style_name, $path) {
  $uri = image_style_path($style_name, $path);
  // The token query is added even if the 'image_allow_insecure_derivatives'
  // variable is TRUE, so that the emitted links remain valid if it is changed
  // back to the default FALSE.
  $token_query = array(IMAGE_DERIVATIVE_TOKEN => image_style_path_token($style_name, file_stream_wrapper_uri_normalize($path)));

  // If not using clean URLs, the image derivative callback is only available
  // with the query string. If the file does not exist, use url() to ensure
  // that it is included. Once the file exists it's fine to fall back to the
  // actual file path, this avoids bootstrapping PHP once the files are built.
  if (!variable_get('clean_url') && file_uri_scheme($uri) == 'public' && !file_exists($uri)) {
    $directory_path = file_stream_wrapper_get_instance_by_uri($uri)->getDirectoryPath();
    return url($directory_path . '/' . file_uri_target($uri), array('absolute' => TRUE, 'query' => $token_query));
  }

  $file_url = file_create_url($uri);
  // Append the query string with the token.
  return $file_url . (strpos($file_url, '?') !== FALSE ? '&' : '?') . drupal_http_build_query($token_query);
}

Comments

The parameter $path is actually a uri in the form public://path/to/file

To get a proper uri you can use file_build_uri() or you can find it in the uri column of the file_managed table.

If you don't use a uri and only use a path (e.g. "path/to/file"), you'll receive a php fatal error: Call to a member function getDirectoryPath() on a non-object

thanks for saving my day! :)
** I think this information sould be on the wiki

I always do it with the URI

Hi,

I have a requirement in my project for 360 degree view of product Image. I am using Version 6 for drupal. I went through Jquery Reel Formatter module but it is still under development for Drupal 6. Could anyone suggest me a module for the same or could anyone suggest me a solution or a customized module if someone has gone through a similar requirement.

Many thanks in advance,
Dharini

The discussion forum is over there. Comments here are for sharing information about the PHP functions documented here.

how can i get image_style_uri?

<?php
str_replace
($base_url.'/sites/default/files/','public://',image_style_url($style,$file->uri));
?>

found this :) image_style_path

seems doesn't work with outside images, I"m using storage api for saving images

The changes related to this in Drupal 7 are bad for SEO. Changing image URLs can potentially drop a site's traffic significantly.
