Svelte image

Demo

Svelte image is a preprocessor which automates image optimization using sharp.

It parses your img tags, optimizes or inlines them and replaces src accordingly.

Image component enables lazyloading and serving multiple sizes via srcset.

This package is heavily inspired by gatsby image.

Installation

yarn add svelte-image

In your rollup.config.js add image to preprocess section:

import image from "svelte-image";


svelte({
  preprocess: {
    ...image(),
  }
})

And have fun!

<script>
  import Image from "svelte-image";
</script>

<Image src="fuji.jpg">

Will generate

<img
  src="data:image/png;base64,/9j/2wBDAAYEBQYFBAYG...BwYIChAKCgkJChQODwwQF"
  alt="fuji">
<img
  alt="fuji"
  sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px"
  srcset="g/400-fuji.jpg 375w, g/800-fuji.jpg 768w, g/1200-fuji.jpg 1024w"
>

Image path

Please note that the library works only with relative paths in Sapper at the moment. <Image src="images/fuji.jpg"> works whereas <Image src="/images/fuji.jpg"> doesn't.

Configuration and defaults

Image accepts following configuration object:

const defaults = {
  optimizeAll: true, // optimize all images discovered in img tags
  inlineBelow: 10000, // inline all images in img tags below 10kb
  compressionLevel: 8, // png quality level
  quality: 70, // jpeg/webp quality level
  tagName: "Image", // default component name
  sizes: [400, 800, 1200], // array of sizes for srcset in pixels
  breakpoints: [375, 768, 1024], // array of screen size breakpoints at which sizes above will be applied
  outputDir: "g/",
  placeholder: "trace", // or "blur"
  trace: {
    background: "#fff",
    color: "#002fa7",
    threshold: 120
  }
};
