Instead of just loading the full and big images from Magento this extension resizes the images. This works by passing the Magento image path through the image route: /storage/{store id}/resizes/{size}/magento/{file}
.
Let's say a product image is located at: https://magentowebsite.com/media/catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg
the path will be /catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg
. To get this image with a maximum width of 200 pixels you go to: /storage/1/resizes/200/magento/catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg
. If you also want to specify a maximum height: /storage/1/resizes/200x200/magento/catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg
.
Automatic webp conversion will also be done if the url has .webp
as it's extension e.g. /storage/1/resizes/200x200/magento/catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg.webp
This will make it retrieve the image from https://magentowebsite.com/media/catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg
, resize it, format it as webp and save it as /storage/1/resizes/200x200/magento/catalog/product/a/a/product-image.jpg.webp
.
This package is installed by default in Rapidez. But if removed you can re-install it with:
composer require rapidez/image-resizer
And make sure you ran php artisan storage:link
You can retrieve a product image by using the product's SKU. This is enabled by default, but can be toggled with the sku.enabled
value in the config file.
To retrieve a product image using SKU, request a path like this: /storage/1/resizes/200x200/sku/13706
. You can also request a webp like this: /storage/1/resizes/200x200/sku/13706.webp
.
Keep in mind that you have to whitelist all sizes to avoid ddos attacks! Publish the config and specify the sizes you want:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Rapidez\ImageResizer\ImageResizerServiceProvider" --tag=config
If you are using images from other external location (see the CMS integrations) you can add that source:
'external' => [
'strapi' => env('STRAPI_URL'),
],
Now you can use the following path to resize the images from the external source:
<img src="{{ '/storage/' . config('rapidez.store') . '/resizes/<size>/strapi'.$data->image->url }}" />
Or alternatively using Laravels route function
<img src="{{ route('resized-image', [
'store' => config('rapidez.store'),
'size' => '<size>',
'placeholder' => 'strapi',
'file' => $data->image->url
]) }}" />
Images are downloaded from the media url and stored in /storage/app/public/<store>/resizes
. Because of the symlink created with php artisan storage:link
the files are then publicly available. Because the route is the same as the path, the webserver first tries to serve the file if it exists, otherwise it will go through PHP to resize and create it.
The image resizes can be deleted using this artisan command:
php artisan rapidez:resizes:delete {store?}
