league/glide
Glide is an on-demand PHP image manipulation library with an HTTP API. Resize, crop, and apply effects, then cache results with far-future headers. Works with GD, Imagick, or libvips, integrates with Flysystem, and can sign URLs for security.
It's common to route all images under the path /img/. However, since Glide maps image request paths directly to the image source paths, you would have to have an /img/ folder in your source location as well. For example:
'http://example.com/img/kayaks.jpg' => '/path/to/source/img/kayaks.jpg'
'http://example.com/img/users/jonathan.jpg' => '/path/to/source/img/users/jonathan.jpg'
Since this isn't ideal, Glide allows you to define a base_url which is omitted from the source path.
<?php
// Set using factory
$server = League\Glide\ServerFactory::create([
'base_url' => '/img/',
]);
// Set using setter method
$server->setBaseUrl('/img/');
With the base URL configured, the new image source paths will no longer include /img/.
'http://example.com/img/kayaks.jpg' => '/path/to/source/kayaks.jpg'
'http://example.com/img/users/jonathan.jpg' => '/path/to/source/users/jonathan.jpg'
