Introduction

What does it do?

With typo3_image_proxy all new and uploaded images will be sent to a an external, self-hosted or containerized imgproxy service to resize the images. imgproxy itself is known as fast and secure on-the-fly image processing. That way your server can focus on website delivery instead of processing a bunch of 8MB image files.

But!!!

This extension does not come with a pre-installed imgproxy service. It is up to you to install, host, find or pay such a service. You will find more information in section Installation. As imgproxy is an external service it needs access to your files in fileadmin, uploads, ... So you should not block public access with .htaccess or secure_downloads.

Please keep image copyright in mind. Are you allowed to sent images to foreign services?
