# 3.1.2 Allows to customize ideal description length Pass the :ideal_description_length option to the Graders::Length initializer to customize the ideal description length of a website. In the rails initializer: ```ruby LinkThumbnailer.configure do |config| config.graders = [ ->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::Length.new(description, ideal_description_length: 500) }, ->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::HtmlAttribute.new(description, :class) }, ->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::HtmlAttribute.new(description, :id) }, ->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::Position.new(description, weigth: 3) }, ->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::LinkDensity.new(description) }, ] end ``` Will default to `120` characters. More information about how the gem manage to find the best description can be found at http://www.codeids.com/2015/06/27/how-to-find-best-description-of-a-website-using-linkthumbnailer/ # 3.1.1 - Upgrade `video_info` gem - Fixes https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/issues/69 # 3.1.0 - Fix an issue when image sizes could not be retrieved. - Grapers now accepts an optional parameter to customize the weigth of the grader in the probablity computation. ```ruby LinkThumbnailer::Graders::Position.new(description, weigth: 3) ``` Will give a 3 times more weigth to the `Position` grader compare to other graders. By default all graders have a weigth of `1` except the above position grader since position should play a bigger role in order to find good description candidates. # 3.0.3 - Fix an issue when dealing with absolute urls. https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/issues/68 - Fix an issue with http redirection and location header not beeing present. https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/issues/70 - Rescue and raise custom LinkThumbnailer exceptions. https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/issues/71 # 3.0.2 - Replace FastImage gem dependency by [ImageInfo](https://github.com/gottfrois/image_info) to improve performances when fetching multiple images size information.

Ex: ```ruby config.attributes = [:title, :images, :description, :videos] ``` # 2.1.0 - Increased `og:image` scraping performance by parsing `og:image:width` and `og:image:height` attribute if specified - Introduced `image_stats` option to allow disabling image size and type parsing causing performance issues.

Simply create your own and use the `to_json` method. To update from `1.x.x` to `2.x.x` you need to run `rails g link_thumbnailer:install` to get the new configuration file. If you used the `PreviewsController` feature, you need to build it yourself since it is not supported anymore. # 1.1.2 - Fix issue with FastImage URLs [https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/pull/31](https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/pull/31) # 1.1.1 - Fix route helper not working under rails 4. # 1.1.0 - Replace RMagick by [FastImage](https://github.com/sdsykes/fastimage) - Rename `rmagick_attributes` config into `image_attributes` # 1.0.9 - Fix issue when Location header used a relative path instead of an absolute path - Update gemfile to be more flexible when using Hashie gem # 1.0.8 - Thanks to [juriglx](https://github.com/juriglx), support for canonical urls - Bug fixes # 1.0.7 - Fix: Issue with preview controller # 1.0.6 - Fix: Issue when setting `strict` option.
