CropTool (croptool) is a tool for cropping image files at Wikimedia Commons and other Wikimedia projects using OAuth and the MediaWiki API. Usage documentation is available at commons:Commons:CropTool.

Administration

• Deployment is done by ssh-ing to Toolforge and pulling the latest code from GitHub.
• Setup/deployment notes at https://github.com/danmichaelo/croptool#deployment-notes
• Uncropped and cropped files are stored in public_html/files. Every fourth hour, a cronjob runs cleanup.sh to delete old files. The number of files deleted in each cleanup run is logged to cleanup.log

Issues

• A cause of some downtime has been https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T104799 . To respond faster to this, a cronjob was added (`check-server.sh`) that calls webservice restart whenever the number of open connections exceeds 150. However, as of May 2016, this hasn't happened since February 17, 2016.
