Contributing

❤️ We love contributions of new CDNs, bug fixes, and improvements to the code.

To add new domains or subdomains to an existing CDN, add them to domains.json or subdomains.json respectively.

To add a new CDN, add the following:

  • a new source file in src/transformers. This should export a transform function that implements the UrlTransformer interface, a parse function that implements the UrlParser interface and optionally a generate function that implements the UrlGenerator interface.
  • if the CDN should delegate remote source images to a different CDN where possible, implement delegateUrl and import it in src/delegate.ts. This is likely to apply to all self-hosted image servers. See the vercel transformer for an example.
  • a new test file in src/transformers. This should test all of the exported API functions.
  • at least one entry in domains.json, subdomains.json or paths.json to detect the CDN. Do not include paths that are likely to cause false positives. e.g. /assets is too generic, but /_mycdn is ok.
  • add the new CDN to the types in src/types.ts
  • import the new source file in src/transform.ts and src/parse.ts
  • add a sample image to examples.json in the demo site. Run the site locally to see that it works.
  • ensure tests pass by installing Deno and running deno test src --allow-net

Image defaults

When generating image URLs, we expect transformers to use the following defaults if supported, to ensure consistent behaviour across all CDNs:

  • Auto format. If the CDN supports it, then it should deliver the best format for the browser using content negotiation. If supported, the priority order should be AVIF, WebP, then the original format.
  • Fit = cover. The image should fill the requested dimensions, cropping if necessary and without distortion. This is the equivalent of the CSS object-fit: cover setting. There is an e2e test for this.
  • No upscaling. The image should not be upscaled if it is smaller than the requested dimensions. Instead it should return the largest available size, but maintain the requested aspect ratio.
