Cloudinary Tiny JS

Cloudinary is a cloud service that offers a solution to a web application's entire image
management pipeline. For client-side image management Cloudinary provides the cloudinary-core library for conveniently
compiling transform options to asset URLs. The problem is that it's a _massive library_ often used to simply convert an
object of properties to a string.

cloudinary-tiny-js provides the same commonly used image transformation features at a fraction of the size and without
any dependencies.

Video transformations are not currently supported nor are some advanced configuration options. It
may also fall short on some advanced image transformations. If you need this functionality, please
submit PRs with references to the relevant Cloudinary documentation.

Usage

$3

The default export is a configuration function returning another function for building Cloudinary
URLs. Configuration option names follow the documentation on
Transforming media assets using dynamic URLs
and Private CDNs and CNAMEs
. Only the cloudName is required. Defaults are shown below.

``javascript
import cloudinary from 'cloudinary-tiny-js'

const cl = cloudinary({
/* The name of your Cloudinary account, a unique public identifier for URL building and API access. /
cloudName: 'demo',
/**
* The type of asset to deliver, image by default. Valid values: image, raw, or video.
* Only the image type currently supports transforms.
*/
assetType: 'image',
/**
* The storage or delivery type. Default: upload. For details on all possible types, see the
* Cloudinary docs on delivery types.
*/
deliveryType: 'upload',
/* Use https instead of http /
secure: true,
/* Override the subdomain when using a private CDN distribution. /
cdnSubdomain: 'res',
/* A fully customisable CNAME. /
cname: 'res.cloudinary.com',
/* Transforms applied to all images, any transforms passed later will extend these defaults. /
imageTransformDefaults: { quality: 'auto' / Any valid transforms, see below / },
})

const imageUrl = cl('sample.png', { width: 150 })
expect(imageUrl).toBe('https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/q_auto,w_150/sample.png')
`

$3

All image transformations documented in the
Transformation URL API reference
are supported except for arithmetic operators, conditionals and variables.

To create a resource URL, call the function returned by the configuration function with a public ID and optional image
transformation options:

`javascript
const basicUrl = cl('sample.png')
expect(basicUrl).toBe('https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/v1/sample.png')

const resizedUrl = cl('sample.png', { width: 150, height: 100 })
expect(resizedUrl).toBe('https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/w_150,h_100/v1/sample.png')
`

Other options that can be provided alongside transform options are:

`javascript
const url = cl('http://example.com/sample.dat', {
/**
* Specify a single or multiple transformations to apply. The options of a single transform can also
* be included directly on this parent object. Note that the default transforms are only applied
* when a single transform is provided and not for an array of transforms.
*/
transformations: undefined,
/**
* Override the assetType provided in the configuration.
*/
assetType: 'raw',
/**
* Override the deliveryType provided in the configuration.
*/
deliveryType: 'fetch',
/**
* You can add the version to your delivery URL to bypass the cached version on the CDN and
* force delivery of the latest resource. As an alternative to using versions, you can set the
* invalidate parameter to true while uploading a new image in order to invalidate the
* previous image throughout the CDN.
*/
version: 742,
})
expect(url).toBe('http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/raw/fetch/v742/http://example.com/sample.dat')
`

To perform multiple transformations an array of transform objects can be passed; the array can be passed directly as the
second parameter or on the transformations property along with other options.

This will generate the URL of the first example in the
Image transformation reference:

`javascript
const transformations = [
{ width: 220, height: 140, crop: 'fill' },
{ overlay: 'brown_sheep', width: 220, height: 140, x: 220, crop: 'fill' },
{ overlay: 'horses', width: 220, height: 140, x: -110, y: 140, crop: 'fill' },
{ overlay: 'white_chicken', width: 220, height: 140, x: 110, y: 70, crop: 'fill' },
{ overlay: 'butterfly.png', height: 200, x: -10, angle: 10 },
{ width: 400, height: 260, radius: 20, crop: 'crop' },
{ overlay: 'text:Parisienne_35_bold:Memories%20from%20our%20trip', color: '#990C47', y: 155 },
{ effect: 'shadow' },
]

const url = cl('yellow_tulip.jpg', transformations)

// Or with other options
const url = cl('yellow_tulip.jpg', {
version: 423,
transformations,
})
`

The imageTransformDefaults property provides a convenient way to include certain transform options in all image
transforms. For example, specifying auto format, quality and width for all images can be achieved by passing:

`javascript
const cl = cloudinary({
cloudName: 'demo',
imageTransformDefaults: {
format: 'auto',
quality: 'auto',
width: 'auto',
},
})

const imageUrl = cl('sample.png', { aspectRatio: '16:9' })
expect(imageUrl).toBe('https://res.cloudina.../f_auto,q_auto,w_auto,ar_16:9/v1/sample.png')
`

Override any default value by passing a replacement value or remove it from the URL by passing undefined:

`javascript
const cl = cloudinary({
cloudName: 'demo',
imageTransformDefaults: {
format: 'auto',
quality: 'auto',
width: 'auto',
},
})

const imageUrl = cl('sample.png', { aspectRatio: '16:9', width: 150, quality: undefined })
expect(imageUrl).toBe('https://res.cloudina.../f_auto,ar_16:9,w_150/v1/sample.png')
`

$3

Typings should help to provide valid parameter values in most cases, but errors will also be thrown on invalid parameter
values in development, for example:

`javascript
cl('sample.jpg', { radius: 'round' })
// Throws:
// Cloudinary Image :: radius should be a number, 'max' or have the form x[:y[:z[:u]]], received: 'round'
`

Some exceptions are the effect, overlay and underlay values which are not validated.

When building for production ensure process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'` so the validation logic can be removed from
the bundle during minification.

The most important configuration and image transformation features of Cloudinary should be supported, but if anything is
missing please submit issues or PRs with references to the relevant Cloudinary documentation.
