Package Exports

gulp-imageoptim

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (gulp-imageoptim) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Gulp-ImageOptim

Gulp plugin to optimize images using ImageOptim-CLI.

Please note this plugin uses ImageOptim-CLI. Unfortunately currently there is no support for Windows and Linux.

So why ImageOptim-CLI? My personal experience and current benchmarks suggest that ImageOptim and ImageAlpha currently outperform alternatives over lossless and lossy optimizations.

Install

Usage

var gulp = require('gulp');
var imageOptim = require('gulp-imageoptim');


gulp.task('images', function() {
    return gulp.src('src/images/**/*')
        .pipe(imageOptim.optimize())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('build/images'));
});

FAQS

Does Gulp-ImageOptim use JPEGmini?

No. JPEGmini is a paid-for product. We are using ImageOptim-CLI (ImageOptim and ImageAlpha) without JPEGmini.

Can I use this plugin on Windows and Linux?

Unfortunately, ImageOptim and ImageAlpha are not available on those platforms yet.
