Description Belen Barros Pena 2015-04-07 16:10:42 UTC
To allow easy search for the recipes that generate images (at least in Toaster). 

It has been suggested we check if a recipe inherits the image class.

As far as the data gathering is concerned, this would be pretty easy to add - we'd just add an inherits field to the recipe model and set this to the list of classes the recipe inherits when parsing (it would need to be the flat list, not just the immediate inherits, so that recipes that e.g. inherit core-image would still be picked up). Toaster would then look for "image" in that list.

Currently waiting on bug 7981

Removing dependency 7981 and closing, as this is now in production. For instance, see [1] and scroll down to the image recipes...
