ImageKit

Integration between ImageKit and the image module.

To use the ImageKit provider, you need to set your ImageKit account URL-endpoint as the base url like below.

export default {  image: {    imagekit: {      baseURL: 'https://ik.imagekit.io/your_imagekit_id'    }  }}

You can get URL-endpoint from your ImageKit dashboard - https://imagekit.io/dashboard#url-endpoints.

ImageKit fit Parameters

In addition to the standard fit properties of Nuxt Image and Nuxt Picture, ImageKit offers more cropping and resizing options to the users:

• extract - The output image has its height, width as requested, and the aspect ratio is preserved. Unlike the cover parameter, we extract out a region of the requested dimension from the original image.
• pad_extract - This parameter is similar to extract. This comes in handy in scenarios where we want to extract an image of a larger dimension from a smaller image. So, the pad_extract mode adds solid colored padding around the image to match the exact size requested.

Read ImageKit crop and crop mode documentation for more details and examples of how it works.

ImageKit Modifiers

On top of the standard Nuxt Image modifiers, a user can also leverage ImageKit-specific transformation parameters provided in the modifier prop.

focus

This parameter can be used along with resizing and cropping to focus on the desired part of the image. You can use focus parameter values like left, right, top, bottom, center, top, left, bottom, right, top_left, top_right, bottom_left and bottom_right.

Custom coordinates can also be used to focus using parameter value custom. Learn more from example.

Moreover, ImageKit also provides smart cropping that can automatically detect the most important part of the image using auto. And, face can be used to find a face (or multiple faces) in an image and focus on that.

Check out ImageKit's documentation on focus to learn more.

blur

This can be used to blur an image. Use modifier blur to specify the Gaussian Blur radius that is to be applied to the image. Possible values include integers between 1 to 100.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  :modifiers="{blur: 10}"/>

effectGray

Turn your image to a grayscale version using the effectGray modifier.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  height="300"  :modifiers="{effectGray: true}"/>

named

Use named transformations as an alias for an entire transformation string.

For example, we can create a named transformation - media_library_thumbnail for a transformation string - tr:w-100,h-100,c-at_max,fo-auto.

border

Add a border to your images using the border modifier. You can also set its width and color.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  width="300"  :modifiers="{border: '20_FF0000'}"/>

rotate

Use the rotate modifier to rotate your image. Possible values are - 0, 90, 180, 270, 360, and auto.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  :modifiers="{rotate: 90}"/>

radius

Give rounded corners to your image using radius. Possible values are - positive integers and max.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  :modifiers="{radius: 20}"/>

bg

Specify background color and its opacity for your image using the bg modifier.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  height="1200"  width="1200"  fit="pad_extract"  :modifiers="{bg: '272B38'}"/>

Overlay Transformation Modifiers

Using ImageKit's Nuxt Image integration, you can overlay images or text over other images for watermarking or creating a dynamic banner using custom text!

overlayImage

Overlay an image on top of another image (base image) using the overlayImage modifier. You can use this to create dynamic banners, watermarking, etc.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  :modifiers="modifiers"  /><script>  export default {    data() {      return {        modifiers: {          overlayImage: 'default-image.jpg',          overlaywidth: 300,          overlayHeight: 200,          overlayFocus: 'top_left',          overlayImageBorder: '5_FFFFFF',        }      }    }  }</script>

Overlay Text

You can overlay text on an image and apply various transformations to it as per your needs.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  :modifiers="modifiers"/><script>  export default {    data() {      return {        modifiers: {          overlayText: 'overlay made easy',          overlayRadius: 30,          overlayTextBackground: 'FFFFFF80',          overlayTextFontSize: '45',          overlayTextColor: '000000',          overlayTextPadding: '40'        }      }    }  }</script>

Image Enhancement Modifiers

effectContrast

Enhance contrast of an image using the effectContrast modifier.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  height="300"  :modifiers="{effectContrast: true}"/>

effectSharpen

Sharpen the input image using the effectSharpen modifier.

<nuxt-img  provider="imagekit"  src="/default-image.jpg"  height="300"  :modifiers="{effectSharpen: 10}"/>

List of supported transforms

ImageKit's Nuxt Image integration provides an easy-to-remember name for each transformation parameter. It makes your code more readable. If you use a property that does not match any of the following supported options, it will be added in the URL as it is.
