Superbig Craft Plugin

A plugin for the Craft CMS that adds full access to the imgix API for manipulating images
PHP 12 4 months ago Creator: Superbig

Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 3.0.0-beta.23 or later.

Installation

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

  1. Open your terminal and go to your Craft project:

    cd /path/to/project

  2. Then tell Composer to load the plugin:

    composer require superbig/craft3-imgix

  3. In the Control Panel, go to Settings → Plugins and click the “Install” button for imgix.

Configuring imgix

Copy config.php into Crafts config folder and rename it to imgix.php.

Then map your Asset Source handle to your imgix domain, according to the example.

This plugin will lookup the Asset image's source handle, and figure out which imgix domain to use. If a URL string is passed, it will use the first domain in the config file.

<?php
   return [
       // imgix API key
       'apiKey'         => '',

       // Volume handles mapped to imgix domains
       'imgixDomains'   => [],

       // imgix signed URLs token
       'imgixSignedToken' => '',

       // Lazy load attribute prefix
       'lazyLoadPrefix' => '',
   ];

Using imgix

{% set transforms = [
    {
        width: 400,
        height: 300
    },
    {
        width: 940,
        height: 520
    },
    {
        width: 1400,
    },
] %}

{% set defaultOptions = {
    sharp: 10
} %}

{% set firstImage = craft.imgix.transformImage( asset, { width: 400, height: 350 }) %}
{% set secondImage = craft.imgix.transformImage( asset, transforms) %}
{% set thirdImage = craft.imgix.transformImage( asset, { width: 1920, ratio: 16/9}) %}
{% set fourthImage = craft.imgix.transformImage( asset, transforms, defaultOptions) }

{# Image tag #}
{{ firstImage.img() }}


{{ firstImage.getUrl() }}


{{ secondImage.srcset({ width: 700 }) }}


{{ fourthImage.srcset( {} ) }}


{{ firstImage.img({ lazyLoad: true }) }}


{{ secondImage.srcset({ lazyLoad: true }) }}


{{ dump(secondImage.transformed) }}

To use with Element API, you can call the service directly:

<?php

use craft\elements\Entry;
use craft\helpers\UrlHelper;
use superbig\imgix\Imgix;

return [
    'endpoints' => [
        'news.json' => [
            'elementType' => Entry::class,
            'criteria' => ['section' => 'news'],
            'transformer' => function(Entry $entry) {
                $asset = $entry->featuredImage->one();
                $featuredImage = Imgix::$plugin->imgixService->transformImage( $asset, [ 'width' => 400, 'height' => 350 ]);

                return [
                    'title' => $entry->title,
                    'url' => $entry->url,
                    'jsonUrl' => UrlHelper::url("news/{$entry->id}.json"),
                    'summary' => $entry->summary,
                    'featuredImage' => $featuredImage,
                ];
            },
        ],
    ]
];

Lazy Loading

To replace src and srcset with data-src and data-srcset for lazy loading, add the lazyLoad attribute to to transformImage().

If you need to prefix with something other than data-, you can set the configuration value lazyLoadPrefix in craft/config/imgix.php.

Roadmap

  • Look into improving srcset/API
  • Look into built-in image editor and focal points
  • Improve docs
