dynasyze

A standalone media server that dynamically resizes and crops image files

Installing

Requires Node 5.0.0+

npm install -g dynasyze

GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick

Usage

dynasyze --config /path/to/config.json

Request Format

http://localhost:3000/[subdirectory]/:size/:key

You can exclude the :size field and only supply [subdirectory]/:key to fetch the original image

Within :size, specifying only the width (e.g. 300) or only the height (e.g. x300) will scale the image to the given dimension

Example requests

http://localhost:3000/300x300/test.jpeg

http://cdn.example.com/user/avatars/x150/avatar.png

http://cdn.c2334.co/images/3000/banner.png

Options

port - Local port on which to run the media server

whitelist - If not empty, only size strings that appear within this array will be accepted.

aliases - Map of custom directory names and their corresponding size string. (e.g. { "small": "300x300" })

subdirectory - Subdirectory to preceed the size and key fields (e.g. http://localhost:3000/images/x300/)

store - Storage settings

store.max_width - Maximum width able to be requested (null for no max)

store.max_height - Maximum height able to be requested (null for no max)

store.root - The root directory for media storage

store.raw - The directory containing the original media files ("" or null for same as root)

store.keep - true to keep resized media, false to discard

store.inflate - If true and the requested size is larger than the requested image, inflated the image to fill the container

store.aws - Parameters for using AWS S3 for media storage. If null, uses local filesystem

store.aws.accessKeyID - AWS access key ID

store.aws.secretAccessKey - AWS secret access key

store.aws.region - Region of S3 Bucket

store.aws.bucket - Bucket for media storage

cache - Cache settings, used to track processing images and allow subsequent calls to wait on the processing file

cache.expire_after - Seconds to wait before timing out on a processing image

cache.redis - Parameters for creating a redis client (see package redis). If null, uses Map object

    "port": 3000,
    "whitelist": [ ],
    "aliases": { },
    "subdirectory": "",
    "store": {
        "max_width": null,

Notes

When requesting a size that is not proportional to the original image, the content is centered and cropped. Currently, this gravity of the cropping is not optional.
