$img utility

Sometimes it's required to directly use a generated image URL with applied transformations instead of <nuxt-img> and <nuxt-picture> components. This is where $img comes in.

Usage

const $img = useImage()$img(src, modifiers, options)

Example: Generate image URL for backgroundImage style.

const $img = useImage()const backgroundStyles = computed(() => {  const imgUrl = $img('https://github.com/nuxt.png', { width: 100 })  return { backgroundImage: `url('${imgUrl}')` }})

$img.getSizes

const $img = useImage()$img.getSizes(src, { sizes, modifiers });

Parameters:

• src: (string) Source to original image id
• sizes: (string) List of responsive image sizes ({breakpoint}:{size}{unit})
• modifiers: (object) Modifiers passed to provider for resizing and optimizing
  • width: resize to the specified width (in pixels)
  • height: resize to specified height (in pixels)
  • quality: Change image quality (0 to 100)
  • format: Change the image format
  • (any other custom provider modifier)
• options: (object)
  • provider: (string) Provider name other than default (see providers)
  • preset: Use a preset

Example: Responsive srcset with Vuetify v-img

<script setup lang="ts">const props = defineProps({  height: { type: [Number, String], default: 500 },  src: {    type: String,    default: '/img/header-bg.jpg'  }})const $img = useImage()const _srcset = computed(() => {  return $img.getSizes(props.src, {    sizes: 'xs:100vw sm:100vw md:100vw lg:100vw xl:100vw',    modifiers: {      format: 'webp',      quality: 70,      height: props.height    }  })})</script><template>  <v-img    :lazy-src="$img(src, { width: 10, quality: 70 })"    :src="$img(src, { height, quality: 70 })"    :srcset="_srcset.srcset"    :height="height"    :sizes="_srcset.sizes"  ></v-img></template>
