Hello, I had a quick look at that driver and made an issue with a couple of things I spotted: osiemsiedem/intervention-image-vips-driver#27

might be useful.

@jcupitt oh great, thanks

I would advise against the osiemsiedem driver. The maintainer doesn't cooperate with intervention devs & doesn't even reply to the other maintainers of the vips libs itself @jcupitt. Thinks intervention is dead yet tries to have an adapter for the "dead" lib.

There have been talks of such adapters for 5 some years. Yet no progress on it. Seems like a lost cause.
I'm just a junior php dev, please don't come at me with PRs lol.

Intervention & vips are both amazing projects. Would love to have them working together.

The osiemsiedem driver is MIT licenced, so it could be forked and maintained by intervention, if necessary. I'm not offering to do the work myself, of course ahem

That is why I'm going to remove Intervention and directly use vips-php, not that difficult to use standalone.

I agree. Intervention Image is basically just a layer of comfort and convenience. If one intend to use only VIPS (or any other processor) anyway, there is no reason not to the this processor directly.
