hastily

Drop-in compatible Express middleware to replicate the Fastly Image Optimization API

Usage

The middleware works a lot like compression, a standard Express middleware which transparently compresses any text-based response body that emits from something in the middleware chain.

So hastily works as an add-on to an Express server or middleware that is already serving images.

import express, { static } from 'express';
import { imageopto } from 'hastily';

const app = express();
app.use('/images', imageopto(), static('/www/images'));

app.listen(8000);

You now have an app which can serve any image from /www/images, and optimize it with URL parameters from the Fastly Image Optimization API.

API

hastily.imageopto()
