Verify ImageMagick installation

This is as short and sweet as it can get:

if (!extension_loaded('imagick'))    echo 'imagick not installed';

Try this:

<?php//This function prints a text array as an html list.function alist ($array) {    $alist = "<ul>";  for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($array); $i++) {    $alist .= "<li>$array[$i]";  }  $alist .= "</ul>";  return $alist;}//Try to get ImageMagick "convert" program version number.exec("convert -version", $out, $rcode);//Print the return code: 0 if OK, nonzero if error. echo "Version return code is $rcode <br>"; //Print the output of "convert -version"    echo alist($out); ?>

EDIT: The info and script below only applies to iMagick class - which is not added by default with ImageMagick!!!

If I want to know if imagemagick is installed and actually working as a php extension, I paste this snippet into a web accessible file

<?phperror_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set( 'display_errors','1');/* Create a new imagick object */$im = new Imagick();/* Create new image. This will be used as fill pattern */$im->newPseudoImage(50, 50, "gradient:red-black");/* Create imagickdraw object */$draw = new ImagickDraw();/* Start a new pattern called "gradient" */$draw->pushPattern('gradient', 0, 0, 50, 50);/* Composite the gradient on the pattern */$draw->composite(Imagick::COMPOSITE_OVER, 0, 0, 50, 50, $im);/* Close the pattern */$draw->popPattern();/* Use the pattern called "gradient" as the fill */$draw->setFillPatternURL('#gradient');/* Set font size to 52 */$draw->setFontSize(52);/* Annotate some text */$draw->annotation(20, 50, "Hello World!");/* Create a new canvas object and a white image */$canvas = new Imagick();$canvas->newImage(350, 70, "white");/* Draw the ImagickDraw on to the canvas */$canvas->drawImage($draw);/* 1px black border around the image */$canvas->borderImage('black', 1, 1);/* Set the format to PNG */$canvas->setImageFormat('png');/* Output the image */header("Content-Type: image/png");echo $canvas;?>

You should see a hello world graphic:
