Centos Imagick readImage for SVG seems to ignore delegates.xml

Post by neekfenwick »

Hi all,

I find that even if I corrupt the 'svg' delegates.xml line, so that the delegate binary should not be found, the conversion still happens (badly). I would like to know how to find what my system is using to perform the SVG conversion.

Code: Select all

# convert -version
Version: ImageMagick 6.9.10-16 Q16 x86_64 2018-12-11 https://imagemagick.org
Copyright: © 1999-2019 ImageMagick Studio LLC

Delegates (built-in): bzlib cairo djvu fftw fontconfig freetype gslib gvc jbig jng jp2 jpeg lcms ltdl lzma openexr pangocairo png ps raw rsvg tiff webp wmf x xml zlib

# rpm -qa | grep -i imagemagick
ImageMagick6-libs-6.9.10.16-1.el7.remi.x86_64
ImageMagick6-6.9.10.16-1.el7.remi.x86_64
ImageMagick6-devel-6.9.10.16-1.el7.remi.x86_64
I find that converting an SVG to bitmap results in 1 out of 3 paths with a pattern filled with an image results in a black area, instead of the image fill. Compiling and using the latest rsvg-convert utility gives a good result. I'm trying to investigate what my system is actually using to do the conversion.

PHP code:

Code: Select all

$masterSVGFilename = 'some_file.svg';
$im->readImage($masterSVGFilename);
$im->setImageFormat('jpg');
$im->resizeImage($widthPx, $heightPx, imagick::FILTER_LANCZOS, 1);
$im->writeImage($outFilename);
I have read a lot of posts, and I think the conversion should be done using, in order of priority:
1/ inkscape if it is installed (from what I have read this is hardcoded and cannot be controlled), or
2/ one of the delegates available

I have uninstalled inkscape from the system, leaving only the delegates option. I have only one delegates.xml file on disk.

Code: Select all

# locate delegates.xml
/etc/ImageMagick6/ImageMagick-6/delegates.xml
This delegates.xml has two lines to do with 'svg', there is no rsvg or msvg mentioned.

Code: Select all

# grep -i svg /etc/ImageMagick6/ImageMagick-6/delegates.xml
  <delegate decode="svg" command="&quot;rsvg-convert&quot; -o &quot;%o&quot; &quot;%i&quot;"/>
  <delegate decode="svg:decode" stealth="True" command="&quot;inkscape&quot; &quot;%s&quot; --export-png=&quot;%s&quot; --export-dpi=&quot;%s&quot; --export-background=&quot;%s&quot; --export-background-opacity=&quot;%s&quot; &gt; &quot;%s&quot; 2&gt;&amp;1"/>
If I corrupt the 'svg' line so that it has 'rsvgxxx-convert', and restart httpd and php-fpm to make sure changes are reloaded, my PHP code still functions. I have no idea what it is using to do the conversion. Could it be falling back to an internal MSVG method?

If it _is_ using MSVG, then how do I force it to use the 'svg' delegate named in delegates.xml? I have tried prefixing the filename with 'svg:':

Code: Select all

$im->readImage('svg:' . $masterSVGFilename);
This does run, but still the output image is wrong, and I would expect the call to fail because the 'svg' delegate in delegates.xml has been explicitly corrupted.

So, how can I examine the operation being performed by Imagick to load this SVG file?

(I have resorted to using exec() to run rsvg-convert manually, and compiled rsvg-convert from source because the version on my system is librsvg2-tools-2.40.20-1.el7.x86_64 and https://github.com/ImageMagick/librsvg/ says "You are looking at the 2.40.x series in librsvg, which is implemented in the C programming language. This release series is no longer maintained!" and leads me to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/librsvg where I have compiled with 'autogen.sh --exec-prefix=/usr/local' to get me 2.44.11 which does a good conversion.. but now I cannot make Imagick use that version because of the above trouble with delegates.xml)

P.S. Perhaps "Delegates (built-in): [cut] rsvg" indicates that the rsvg delegate is built-in, and as I have found, older versions of rsvg do a poor job of converting my SVG with image pattern fills. So my original question still stands, how do I show exactly what method Imagick is using to do the conversion (to prove it is using the built-in rsvg delegate).

Then I guess the question is, how do I show the version of rsvg that is built in, and can I force Imagick to use a different delegate, given that my attempt to specify "svg:" prefix to force use of a delegate named in delegates.xml failed?

It is not accurate. If Inkscape is on your system, then it will be used. Otherwise, check

Code: Select all

convert -list format
and look for line starting with Delegates. It will say either RSVG if you have librsvg installed or MSVG or XML for the internal ImageMagick renderer.

However the best way is to just add -verbose to your command line and see which renderer is shown doing the processing.

Good call fmw42, I should have listed that in my original post.

Code: Select all

$ convert -list format | grep -i svg
     MSVG  SVG       rw+   ImageMagick's own SVG internal renderer
      SVG  SVG       rw+   Scalable Vector Graphics (RSVG 2.40.16)
     SVGZ  SVG       rw+   Compressed Scalable Vector Graphics (RSVG 2.40.16)
So the built-in RSVG delegate seems to be 2.40.16, the obsolete one that doesn't work. I have installed 2.44.11 on my system which performs well when I exec it instead of using Imagick, now I'm back to the question of why delegates.xml doesn't seem to do anything.

I tried inventing a new delegate.xml line:

Code: Select all

  <delegate decode="blah" command="&quot;/usr/local/bin/rsvg-convert&quot; -o &quot;%o&quot; &quot;%i&quot;"/>
and loading the SVG file with:

Code: Select all

$im->readImage('blah:' . $masterSVGFilename);
This does load the image but doesn't handle the patterns correctly, so it seems like it's using the wrong delegate despite accepting the 'blah:' prefix with no complaint (nothing appearing in error_log to indicate a problem).

FYI, as you might expect, with my new 'blah' entry in delegates.xml I also cannot make command line 'convert' use it, i.e.:

Code: Select all

$ convert blah:master.svg out.png
Gives blank image patterns.

Code: Select all

$ /usr/local/bin/rsvg-convert master.svg -o out.png
Gives good looking image patterns.

So it seems as much a problem with the command line convert as it is with the Imagick PHP bindings.

Sorry, if I misunderstand, but did you install RSVG 2.44.11 as a delegate to Imageamagick? If so, does it now show in your list of

Code: Select all

convert -list format
If not, then you need to re-install ImageMagick so that it can find it and shows as your SVG delegate

If it shows, then you might check to see that you do not have Inkscape on your system, which will take precedence.

The best way to find out what is going on is to put -verbose in your command line and see which delegate is being used.

Code: Select all

convert -verbose master.svg out.png

Then something is wrong. Your "blah" entry should be used. What is the output from a "-verbose" in that convert?

"-debug all" will tell you what delegates.xml files are being read.

What does "convert -list delegate" say? It should contain a line like:

Code: Select all

blah =>          "rsvg-convert" -o "%o" "%i"
... but ensure your delegates.xml entries don't contain [tt]stealth="True"[/tt].

Re: Centos Imagick readImage for SVG seems to ignore delegates.xml

Post by neekfenwick »

Thanks for all the responses! You've reminded me of the '-verbose' command line switch which of course shows exactly how 'convert' is doing the conversion, and it led me to some conclusions. I had thought delegates.xml wasn't being used because I saw differences in the 'convert' output to the raw 'rsvg-convert' output, but it turns out the rsvg-convert delegate _was_ being used, but it behaves differently when run from 'convert' to when it's run on its own.

- I can use 'strace' to watch what's going on as rsvg-convert does its work via 'convert', with the -f switch to trace child processes: strace -f -- convert blah:master.svg -o out.png

Code: Select all

[pid 10003] lstat("/tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=51331, ...}) = 0
[pid 10003] open("/tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg", O_RDONLY) = 5
This proved that rsvg-convert was looking for the image specified as href="frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg" in the /tmp directory, where it was not.

- This reminded me, when run via 'convert' command line, your SVG file is copied to the temp dir (/tmp in my case), so any relative paths become relative to /tmp and not the original working directory.

Code: Select all

write(2, "'/usr/local/bin/rsvg-convert' -o"..., 97'/usr/local/bin/rsvg-convert' -o '/tmp/magick-11828qRgZ_-dQs8jk' '/tmp/magick-11828vX-i7ClrNPoA'
) = 97
So, of course my relative paths like "thing.jpg" were not found. If I copy thing.jpg to /tmp first, then run convert, the image shows up in the output png (yay!).

- via 'convert', absolute file:// URLs in pattern fills do work when specifying the temp directory location, e.g. <pattern ...><image xlink:href="file:///tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg" ... ></pattern> (this gave the strace output above)

Code: Select all

[pid 12165] lstat("/tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=51331, ...}) = 0
[pid 12165] open("/tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg", O_RDONLY) = 5
[pid 12165] fstat(5, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=51331, ...}) = 0
[pid 12165] read(5, "\377\330\377\340\0\20JFIF\0\1\1\1\0H\0H\0\0\377\376\0\23Created "..., 51331) = 51331
[pid 12165] close(5)                    = 0
- via 'convert', absolute file:// URLs to the working dir (in a user directory web root) do not work, e.g. <pattern ...><image xlink:href="file:///home/username/public_html/path_here/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg" ... ></pattern>

Code: Select all

[pid 10377] lstat("/home/username/public_html/path_here/frame2_cake-cropped-thumb.jpg", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=46294, ...}) = 0
- at the same time, via 'rsvg-convert' directly, file:// URLS specifying the tmp dir DO NOT work! This seems pretty crazy to me, when it worked when invoked from 'convert'.
e.g. <pattern ...><image xlink:href="file:///tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg" ... ></pattern> gives strace output:

Code: Select all

lstat("/tmp/frame1_cactus-cropped-thumb.jpg", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=51331, ...}) = 0
read(4, "", 4096)      
[cut...]
close(4)
So rsvg-convert fails to read any bytes from a file in /tmp when run on its own. All these files are world readable, there is no chroot jailing going on, I'm at a bit of a loss to say what's going wrong.

I'll leave some more investigation below here, and stick to using exec() to run rsvg-convert directly with simple relative paths in the SVG, which is still working well.

So it is trying to use inkscape for the plain SVG delegate action, and not the intentionally corrupted 'rxxxsvg-convert' one I set up! I thought inkscape was not on my system, because of:

Code: Select all

$ which inkscape
/usr/bin/which: no inkscape in (/home/premier/.nvm/versions/node/v9.11.1/bin:/home/premier/perl5/bin:/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/lib/path-bin:/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/lib/path-bin:/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/lib/path-bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/cpanel/composer/bin:/home/premier/bin)
$ rpm -qa | grep inkscape
$ locate inkscape
$
and strace shows some failures to find inkscape, then the job carries on regardless, perhaps using the built-in MSVG converter since I see no other interesting forks to external processes going on.

Code: Select all

[pid 14511] stat("/home/username/.nvm/versions/node/v9.11.1/bin/inkscape", 0x7fff5ad2afe0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[pid 14511] stat("/home/username/perl5/bin/inkscape", 0x7fff5ad2afe0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[pid 14511] stat("/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/lib/path-bin/inkscape", 0x7fff5ad2afe0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

[pid 14511] stat("/usr/local/sbin/inkscape", 0x7fff5ad2afe0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

[cut...]
[pid 14512] write(2, "sh: inkscape: command not found\n", 32) = 32
And the 'blah:' delegate, which I thought was ignoring delegates.xml, is actually using it:

Code: Select all

$ convert -verbose blah:master.svg out.png
'/usr/local/bin/rsvg-convert' -o '/tmp/magick-7255j1eCUY5UwSi9' '/tmp/magick-72552Fyt2Yy8TFD2'

blah:master.svg=>out.png PNG 1841x1904 1841x1904+0+0 8-bit sRGB 79873B 0.500u 0:00.310
If you're interested here's a version of my SVG with some of the extra artwork removed that still shows the behaviour, it's three <path> elements each with a pattern fill where the image file is in the same folder as the SVG:

Code: Select all

Re: Centos Imagick readImage for SVG seems to ignore delegates.xml

Post by snibgo »

When using IM to convert SVG files that contain relative links to patterns etc, you might consider temporarily changing MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH to the directory of the SVG file. See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/resources.php

Normally, MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH is not set, and IM will use /tmp on *nix or %TEMP% on Windows for temporary files. So just unset it when your convert is done.

Re: Centos Imagick readImage for SVG seems to ignore delegates.xml

Post by neekfenwick »

[EDIT: original post claimed this wasn't working, but I noticed I was being a massive tool and missing that of course my attempt to run 'convert' on the command line has nothing to do with the environment of a PHP script running Imagick ]

Very good call snigbo .. I actually do have that call before my Imagick invocations and it was setting the temp dir to my web root cache dir. So I've changed this to set it to the directory containing the SVG file:

Code: Select all

$svgWorkDir = 'path/inside/web/root';
$masterSVGFilename = $svgWorkDir . 'master.svg';
putenv('MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH=' . $svg_work_dir);
$im = new Imagick();
$im->readImage('rsvg:' . $masterSVGFilename);
$im->setImageFormat('jpg')
$im->writeImage($outFilename);
putenv('MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH'); // unset variable
This seems to work well!

So I think I've learned the following when trying to convert an SVG with both <image> elements and <pattern> with inner <image> elements:

- Trying to change the 'svg' delegate in delegates.xml and specifying the delegate as 'svg:master.svg' has no effect, my system still seems to try to invoke 'inkscape' (as seen in 'convert -verbose svg:master.svg out.png' output).. although strace then shows inkscape not being found and the conversion goes ahead anyway, presumably using the rsvg built-in delegate (seen in 'convert -version') which is version 2.40.16 (seen in 'convert -list format' output)

- Built-in rsvg version 2.40.x (in my ImageMagick6 packages from remi) is obsolete and the team recommend using 2.42.x which I could easily build from source and install in /usr/local. This converts the images well.

- Create a new entry in delegates.xml called anything other than 'svg' e.g.:

Code: Select all

<delegate decode="rsvg" command="&quot;/usr/local/bin/rsvg-convert&quot; -o &quot;%o&quot; &quot;%i&quot;"/>
- Set your MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH to the same folder the SVG and images are in so that when Imagick writes your SVG file to a temporary file it's in the same location as the images for when rsvg-convert is invoked on it. (this is a big assumption that the SVG file and the images are in the same directory :) )

- Load the SVG using your delegate name prefix e.g. 'rsvg:somefile.svg'.

- Side note: part of the reason for all this chaos is that <image> and <pattern><image></pattern> elements seem to work differently in their file resolution. For an SVG with both using absolute pathnames, only the plain <image> elements render for me, the <path>s using a pattern fill appear empty. If I strip the path names to be just the filename, i.e. relative to the current directory, and use the temp dir trick above, then both image and path elements fill correctly. So, my solution also includes some stripping of the SVG before loading it into $im to remove the path names from images.

I'll stick with this, my only worry now is delegates.xml being overwritten and losing my rsvg delegate definition.

Thanks everyone! :)
