</picture>

Installation

yarn add -D svelte-i-pack

(requires svelte >= v3)

With Svelte

Simply add iPack() in the rollup plugins before svelte plugin.

// rollup.config.js
import iPack from 'svelte-i-pack';

export default {
  ...,
  plugins: [
    iPack({ /* options */ }),
    svelte({ ... }),
    ...
  ]
}

With Sapper

Pretty much the same as Svelte. However, Sapper has two build configurations, one for the client bundle and one for the server. To use svelte-i-pack with Sapper, you need to define it on both configurations.

// ...
import iPack from 'svelte-i-pack';

const iPackOptions = { /* options if needed */ }

export default {
  client: {
    plugins: [
      iPack(iPackOptions),
      svelte({
        // ...
      }),
  },
  server: {
    plugins: [
      iPack(iPackOptions),
      svelte({
        // ...
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Preprocessor Options and Defaults

iPack processor can receive an options object.

const options = {
  /**
   * Specify input directory for your original images.
   * Original ones are simply treated as source and will not be included in the build.
   * Thus, you should not set it in ./static.
   **/
  inputDir: 'content/img',
  /**
   * Jpeg/webp quality level
   **/
  quality: 75,
  /**
   * Png quality level
   **/
  pngCompLevel: 8,
  /**
   * Images below the threshold will be encoded to base64 and be inlined.
   * In this case no image file will be generated.
   **/
  inlineThreshold: 5000,
  /**
   * If true, logs all an array of created and deleted images.
   **/
  logging: true,
}

Image component props

<Image> component can recieve props below:

Standard html attributes. -These will be passed as normal attributes.

• src (required) -relative and static path only

• class

• style

• media

• alt

• sizes

  When not specified, sizes will fall back to the value of the left part of the width - in the example below, 160px.

You cannot pass width and height. Use inline style or css instead.

iPack attributes.

• width (required)

  This is completely different from the normal html width attribute. This prop controls the size and the number of image generated.

  syntax: {actual.displayed.size}*{resolution}

  example: width="160*3" will generate images with size of [160, 320, 480] for both png/jpg and webp.

• aSrc

• aWIdth

• aSizes

  When you specify media in art direction scenarios, you can specify their src, width, sizes with these props. (a = alternative) If you don't specify aSizes, value of the left part of the aWidth will be used.

• no-inline

  Pass this prop if you don't want the image to be converted to inlined-base64. This should be desirable for the images that get used multiple times in the same page.

  If you want to disable inline-img feature globally, set inline-threshold in preprocessor option to 0.

Some thoughts

Class and scoped CSS

As you can see above, you can pass as many classes to <Image> component.

However, since Svelte's style is scoped by default, you need to tweek a little to apply the style you specified in the parent component to the <Image> component.

---

1. Use :global style

Change

.callout {
  margin-right: 0.5rem;
  margin-top: 1.25rem;
}

to

:global(.callout) {
  margin-right: 0.5rem;
  margin-top: 1.25rem;
}

---

2. Use utility-first css library like Tailwind.css

<image
  src="pc/2x/leaf3.png"
  width="160*2"
  sizes="160px"
  alt=""
  class="h-16 w-16 mx-auto"
/>

---

Both works, but using utility-first css should be slightly optimal.

By configuring Tailwind.css correctly you can eliminate the small overhead caused by :global-ing styles.
