Uri.image ViewHelper <f:uri.image> 

ViewHelper to resize, crop or convert a given image (if required) and return the URL to this processed file.

This ViewHelper works for images within FAL storages, as well as system resources shipped with an extension and referenced via an EXT:/PKG: identifier. A system resource has none of FAL's stored metadata (crop, title, ...), so it only ever uses this ViewHelper's own arguments for that.

For an extension resource that should not go through image processing at all, use <f:uri.resource> instead.

External URLs are not processed and just returned as is.

Go to the source code of this ViewHelper: Uri\ImageViewHelper.php (GitHub).

Changed in version 14.2

Examples 

Default 

packages/my_extension/Resources/Private/Templates/Blog/Show.fluid.html
<f:uri.image src="EXT:my_extension/Resources/Public/typo3_logo.png" />
Copied!

Results in the following output within TYPO3 frontend:

typo3conf/ext/myext/Resources/Public/typo3_logo.png

and the following output inside TYPO3 backend:

../typo3conf/ext/myext/Resources/Public/typo3_logo.png

Image object 

packages/my_extension/Resources/Private/Templates/Blog/Show.fluid.html
<f:uri.image image="{imageObject}" />
Copied!

Results in the following output within TYPO3 frontend:

fileadmin/images/image.png

and the following output inside TYPO3 backend:

fileadmin/images/image.png

Inline notation 

packages/my_extension/Resources/Private/Templates/Blog/Show.fluid.html
{f:uri.image(src: 'EXT:my_extension/Resources/Public/typo3_logo.png', minWidth: 30, maxWidth: 40)}
Copied!
Output
typo3temp/assets/images/[b4c0e7ed5c].png
Copied!

Depending on your TYPO3s encryption key.

Non existing image 

packages/my_extension/Resources/Private/Templates/Blog/Show.fluid.html
<f:uri.image src="NonExistingImage.png" />
Copied!
Output
Could not get image resource for "NonExistingImage.png".
Copied!

Base 64 

When the base64 argument is set to true, this ViewHelper returns a base 64 encoded version of the ressource.

<img src="{f:uri.image(base64: 'true',
                       src:'EXT:backend/Resources/Public/Images/typo3_logo_orange.svg')}">
Copied!

Will return the image encoded in base64:

<img src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2...cuODQ4LTYuNzU3Ii8+Cjwvc3ZnPgo=">
Copied!

This can be particularly useful inside FluidEmail or to prevent unneeded HTTP calls.
