How to install and setup thumbor
I found an image hosting python project on the internet named thumbor, I believe its self-hosted, and their documentation is pretty straightforward. I didn't get all the process required to install and set up the server and start hosting images through API.
if anyone setted up this service before, please help me, guide me through the process, please!
of if u guys know any free image hosting and CDN service, you can suggest me. like cloudinary, but a little more free to use, coz I need to develop a simple user management site!
I'm using google cloud platform. is it possible?

No idea, but with AWS it was pretty straightforward to set up, so far it has cost pence. Just added it here in case it was helpful.

I have recently used thumbor for personal projects :
The easiest step to get thumbor working is to clone the repo from GitHub,
Install it using setup.py & then start it using the command
thumbor -p 8000
this will help you start the server at port number 8000 & then you can serve the requests using
http://<thumbor-server>:PORT_NUMBER/300x200/smart/s.glbimg.com/et/bb/f/original/2011/03/24/VN0JiwzmOw0b0lg.jpg
I hope this helps you. In case you are stuck, feel free to ask.
You can also go through the following PDF to further understanding.
I've allocated the domain to the server, can I access it with domain? If yes can I run the thumbor in Port 80 so that I don't have to use port while accessing the image! Btw thank you for your reply

You should either start a new instance & use the IP provided to hit thumbor server else you can have thumbor on your server instance with a different port number.
