Optimize images (`image-optimization-cloudinary`)

image-optimization-cloudinary uses the [Cloudinary][cloudinary]
service to analyze your images and see if there could be size savings
on them.

Note: To use this hint you will need to have an account in this
service and configure it to use those credentials via the
[CLOUDINARY_URL environment variable][environment-variable] or in
the hint’s configuration. You can create a [free account here][signup].

Why is this important?

As of June 1st, 2019, and based on [HTTP Archive][httparchive-report],
images account for a bit over 47% of the size of a website in average.

!["Average Bytes per Page by Content Type"][bytes-per-content-type]

By having your images optimized, you will help your users have a better
and faster experience when navigating in your website.

What does the hint check?

This hint will use Cloudinary’s infrastructure to upload any images
found and check if they can be optimized maintaining the same resolution
and format.

Can the hint be configured?

Yes, if you don’t want to use the CLOUDINARY_URL environment variable
to set up your credentials, you can pass them to the hint via the hint
configuration from the [.hintrc][hintrc] file:

``json { "connector": {...}, "formatters": [...], "hints": { "image-optimization-cloudinary": ["error", { "apiKey": "your api key", "apiSecret": "your api secret", "cloudName": "your cloud name" }], ... }, ... }`

By default, this hint will notify you even if there is a 1kB savings. If you want to change thethresholdyou can do it by having something as the following in the [.hintrc][hintrc] file:

`json { "connector": {...}, "formatters": [...], "hints": { "image-optimization-cloudinary": ["error", { "threshold": 10 }], ... }, ... }`

The thresholdvalue will be used for the savings per image, and the total possible savings.

`$3`

* Having an image that Cloudinary can optimize further. * Having athresholdconfigured and an image whose savings is equal or greater than the configured value. * Having athresholdconfigured and several images whose individual savings is less thanthresholdbut when combined it’s greater. For example, if you configure athresholdof 10, and you have one image that could be 6kB smaller, and another one that could be 5kB smaller, this hint will report an issue because the combined savings is greater than 10.

`$3`

* Having all your images optimized. * Having athresholdconfigured and the combined savings of all images smaller to that value.

`How to use this hint?`

This package is installed automatically by webhint:

`bash npm install hint --save-dev`

To use it, activate it via the [.hintrc][hintrc] configuration file:

`json { "connector": {...}, "formatters": [...], "hints": { "image-optimization-cloudinary": "error", ... }, "parsers": [...], ... }`

Note: The recommended way of running webhint is as a devDependency` of
your project.
