Imagecrop doesn't support Imagecache presets in Features

On further investigation the problem appears to be in the imagecrop_action_exists() function in imagecrop.module at line 249:

function imagecrop_action_exists() {

  static $result = FALSE;

  if ($result !== FALSE) {
    return $result;
  }

  $result = db_result(db_query("SELECT actionid FROM {imagecache_action} WHERE action = 'imagecrop_javascript'"));
  return $result;

}

Where imagecache presets are stored in a feature, they don't seem to get stored in the imagecache_action table - just in code.

Is there another way to do this - an imagecache API function perhaps - that doesn't rely on directly pulling from an imagecache table?

Thanks

The presets have been exported, and are in code in the Feature, along with the other imagecache actions.

Here's an example of what's exported:

/**
 * Implementation of hook_imagecache_default_presets().
 */
function jumpjet_image_engine_imagecache_default_presets() {
  $items = array(
    'jumpjet_img_01col' => array(
      'presetname' => 'jumpjet_img_01col',
      'actions' => array(
        '0' => array(
          'weight' => '0',
          'module' => 'imagecache_autorotate',
          'action' => 'imagecache_autorotate',
          'data' => array(),
        ),
        '1' => array(
          'weight' => '0',
          'module' => 'imagecache',
          'action' => 'imagecache_scale',
          'data' => array(
            'width' => '40',
            'height' => '',
            'upscale' => 0,
          ),
        ),
      ),
    ),
    'jumpjet_img_01col_1-1-square' => array(
      'presetname' => 'jumpjet_img_01col_1-1-square',
      'actions' => array(
        '0' => array(
          'weight' => '-10',
          'module' => 'imagecache_autorotate',
          'action' => 'imagecache_autorotate',
          'data' => array(),
        ),
        '1' => array(
          'weight' => '-9',
          'module' => 'imagecrop',
          'action' => 'imagecrop_javascript',
          'data' => array(
            'width' => '40',
            'height' => '40',
            'xoffset' => 'center',
            'yoffset' => 'center',
            'resizable' => 0,
            'aspect' => 1,
            'disable_if_no_data' => 1,
          ),
        ),
        '2' => array(
          'weight' => '-8',
          'module' => 'smartcrop',
          'action' => 'smartcrop_scale_and_crop',
          'data' => array(
            'width' => '40',
            'height' => '40',
            'upscale' => 0,
          ),
        ),
      ),
    ),

.... continued....

  );
  return $items;
}

However when the Feature is installed on a clean site, it gives the error message "No preset is found with the javascript_crop action so far. If you want to take advantage of this module, you will need to create at least one preset with that action."

It seems javascript_crop only looks in the database, while imagecache has these presets only in code.

The problem goes away if i choose to 'override' the imagecache preset, which then stores it in the database.

So is there a different way for javascript_crop to get the presets - via the imagecache API rather than direct from the DB perhaps?

Thanks

Thanks Greg, that all makes sense.
Changing title to reflect this. It also seems to affect some other modules, so am opening similar issues there pointing here.

Just to confirm this now works very nicely.
Thanks for such a quick fix!
