PowerShell module for Kraken.io

Advanced image optimization using Powershell and Kraken.io

The kraken-powershell module is a wrapper around kraken-net and simplifies optimizing images from using a command prompt

kraken-powershell focuses on batch processing without the need of writing a full application. Due to this, only a subset of what kraken-net offers is available. This can change in the future however depends on your enhancement requests.

For more about information kraken-net can be found here or consult the official kraken.io documentation.

Getting Started

First you need to sign up for the Kraken API and obtain your unique API Key and API Secret. You will find both under API Credentials. Once you have set up your account, you can start using the kraken-powershell module.

Installation

Download the PowerShell Binary Module (kraken.powershell.dll and the supporting assemblies) from the folder named module module(kraken.powershell.zip).

And import the Module using Import-Module

Import-Module 'C:\path\..\kraken.powershell.dll' -Verbose

VERBOSE: Importing cmdlet 'Optimize-Image'.
VERBOSE: Importing cmdlet 'Optimize-ImageToS3'.
VERBOSE: Importing cmdlet 'Optimize-ImageToAzure'.
VERBOSE: Importing cmdlet 'Optimize-ImageUrl'.
VERBOSE: Importing cmdlet 'Optimize-ImageUrlToS3'.
VERBOSE: Importing cmdlet 'Optimize-ImageUrlToAzure'.

Upload files

Uploading and optimizing multiple files at the same time is simple. The progress indicator will keep you informed regarding the optimization progress.

$files = Get-ChildItem 'C:\path\..\myfolder' -Filter *.png, *.jpg, *.jpeg
$result = Optimize-Image -FilePath $files.FullName -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $true  
$result | Format-Table

All individual requests made to kraken will be listed as shown below:

Reporting

It’s very easy to generate simple repots based on the data exposed by Kraken.io. The sample below creates a sum of all saved bytes from one batch.

$savedBytes = ($result | Measure-Object SavedBytes -Sum).Sum
$savedBytes

The result:

Upload files with callback

The callback option can be used when you have a separate process responsible for dealing with the compressed images. Just provide the Url to receive callback notifications about completed compression requests.

$result = Optimize-Image -FilePath $files.FullName -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $false ` 
 -CallBackUrl 'http://devslice.net/callback'
$result | Format-Table

Success Id                               StatusCode

Public images

It’s not required to upload your images if they are already available online. Just use the Url instead.

$files = @('http://compass.xbox.com/assets/image1.jpg',
           'http://compass.xbox.com/assets/image2.jpg',
           'http://compass.xbox.com/assets/image3.jpg',
           'http://compass.xbox.com/assets/image4.jpg')

Compression Settings

The following parameters is supported for all Cmdlets.

Lossy ($true/$false) false by default
WebP ($true/$false) false by default
AutoOrient ($true/$false) false by default
SamplingScheme (4:2:0, 4:2:2, 4:4:4) 4:2:0 is the default

Azure Blob Storage

it’s possible to give kraken.io the instructions to store the compressed images directly within your Azure Blob Storage container. This will be performed directly and eliminates the need to download the images to your local system first.

Upload images

$files = Get-ChildItem 'C:\path\..\myfolder' -Filter *.png, *.jpg, *.jpeg
$result = Optimize-ImageToAzure -FilePath $files.FullName -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $true `
 -AzureAccount $azureAccount -AzureKey $azureKey -AzureContainer 'test' -AzurePath 'powershell/' 
$result | Format-Table

Public images

It’s not required to upload your images if they are already available online. Just use the Url instead.

$files = @('http://dev.devslice.net/assets/image1.jpg')

$result = Optimize-ImageUrlToAzure -FileUrl $files -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $true `
 -AzureAccount $azureAccount -AzureKey $azureKey -AzureContainer 'test' -AzurePath 'sample2/' 
$result | Format-Table

Maintain folder structure

If you want the maintain the same folder structure within your Azure Blob Storage, make sure to specify the -KeepPath option (Public images only).

This option will also leave out the source container name when both the source and destination are Azure Blob Storage based.

$files = @('http://dev.devslice.net/assets/67/2e/image1.jpg')

$result = Optimize-ImageUrlToAzure -FileUrl $files -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $true `
-AzureAccount $azureAccount -AzureKey $azureKey -AzureContainer 'test' -KeepPath $true
$result.KrakedUrl

The file was created with a matching folder structure;

https://kraken1.blob.core.windows.net/test/assets/67/2e/image1.jpg

Headers and Metadata

Adding custom headers and metadata is supported as demonstrated in the sample below.

$headers = @{}
$headers.Add('Cache-Control','max-age=1234')

$metadata = @{}
$metadata.Add('test1','value1')
$metadata.Add('test2','value2')

$result = Optimize-ImageUrlToAzure -FileUrl $files -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $true `
 -AzureAccount $azureAccount -AzureKey $azureKey -AzureContainer  $azureContainer -KeepPath $true `
 -Headers $headers -Metadata $metadata

Amazon S3

it’s possible to give kraken.io the instructions to store the compressed images directly within your AWS S3 bucket. This will be performed directly and eliminates the need to download the images to your local system first.

Upload images

$files = Get-ChildItem 'C:\path\..\myfolder' -Filter *.png, *.jpg, *.jpeg
$result = Optimize-ImageToS3 -FilePath $files.FullName -Key $key -Secret $secret -Wait $true `
 -AmazonKey $amazonKey -AmazonSecret $amazonSecret -AmazonBucket  $amazonBucket -S3Path 'powershell/' 
$result | Format-Table
