Random image generation

[jan-dh]

When trying to generate random images I get the following error:

Exception 'craft\errors\ImageException' with message 'The file “photo-2145101584.jpg” does not appear to be an image.'

Yes, noticed this myself over the weekend. Looking into it!

Found the issue!

fzaninotto/faker uses lorempixel.com to get a random image but the larger the image, the slower the response is. I had it set to a 2500x2000 image, which just times out on lorempixel.

Made the image smaller and now it works more reliably. Can you give it another go?

Released an update with this so you'll have to run composer update to pull it down before you try again.

I'm getting this now:

PHP Warning 'yii\base\ErrorException' with message 'rand() expects parameter 2 to be integer, string given'

in .../vendor/studioespresso/craft-seeder/src/services/fields/Fields.php:267

Entry i'm trying to generate has the following fields:
Title, categories, Tags, lightswitch, matrix, related entries

Ai Ai, silly mistake! I’ll have a fix out asap!

[jan-dh]

You rather have that I create new issues? or shall rename this one in general testing?

[janhenckens]

Fixed in 1.0.2, just pushed that update!

I'm getting with the latest version the same mistake

`Exception 'craft\errors\ImageException' with message 'The file “photo-1101246464.jpg” does not appear to be an image.'

in /craftcms/cms/src/image/Raster.php:168`

@belkin seems to be related to this Faker issue: fzaninotto/Faker#2071

Faker is not being developed anymore, and lorempixel - the image generator it was using - seems to be down. You can try using local assets, see the README

@janhenckens using the new faker fork might be the answer? https://github.com/fakerphp/faker
