Cloudinary Autoform

This package lets you use Cloudinary with autoform/simpleschema to easily upload images to your Cloudinary account, automatically saving an object with all the images data, and providing a convinient helper for retrieving the image from cloudinary, providing options to the api.

Features:

upload to cloudinary
saves an object
template helper for retrieving with options
progress bar & class applied to field wrap while uploading
cleaned up meteor settings with JSON style namespacing
uses the latest dependancies

Usage

using this is tremendously easy, add the package, setup the schema, add it to your form, and retrieve it using our handy helper:

1. `meteor add pushplaybang:autoform-cloudinary`

2. Set up settings.json file

{
  "cloudinary": {
    "cloud_name": "",
    "api_key": "",
    "api_secret": ""
  },
  "public": {
    "cloudinary": {
      "cloud_name": "",
      "api_key": ""
    },
  },
}

3. Create collection and attach simple schema

Images = new Mongo.Collection('images');

Images.attachSchema(new SimpleSchema({
  image: {
    type: Object,
    blackbox: true, // required
    optional: true, // not required
    autoform: {
      type: 'cloudinary',
      label: false,
      buttonLabel: 'upload avatar',
    },
  }
}));

4. Create quick form

<template name="imageForm">
  {{> quickForm collection="Images" type="insert" id="add-image"}}
</template>

5. Retrieve the image

To retrieve the image we provide a global blaze helper that takes two parameters, firstly the public_id and a set of options.

  <img src="{{ cloudinaryUrl id
    quality='auto:good'
    format=jpg
    width=240
    height=240
    crop='fill'
    gravity='face'
  }}" alt="avatar">

6. Run meteor

meteor --settings settings.json

Credit

This started as a hard fork from cosio55:autoform-cloudinary, as it only stored the URL, which made it challenging to leverage all of the awesome functionality that cloudinary provides.
