No _ipx folder after nuxt build command

[shlomi93]

Hello
I'm trying to use NuxtImg without success in my SSR Nuxt3 project.
The following happens in both Windows 10, and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
i have installed it and in nuxt.config i've added:

modules: [ "@nuxt/image"],

image: {
  domains: [
      "localhost",
      amazonaws S3 bucket address here
  ],
  provider: "ipx",
},

then in a specific component:

<NuxtImg :src='props.imagePath'  :alt="'section ' + props.title" />

[props.imagePath is "/assets/icons/test.webp" for example and it is found inside public folder, so actually public/assets/icons/man.webp]

then I run
nuxt build
and then
node .output/server/index.mjs

when inspecting the image, i can see that the src is /ipx//.... but there is not /_ipx/ dir in .output/ or any of its sub-dirs

why i don't get the ipx folder?

Thanks

Same problem

[CharlesBT]

same problem with v1.7.0 1.7.1 and 1.8.0, whereas is was working last month with 1.7.1, it seems a dependency has changed under the hood.
I have tested to force sharp 33.4 but it doesn't help

[CharlesBT]

Adding "ipx": "3.0.1" as devdependencies solveed the issue of prerendering images in the public folder under _ipx BUT doesn't help on images hosted on an external blob storage like Azure Blob,

I don't know why both where working since a while previously, it seems something has changed since the last 3/4 weeks
