# Image ## Image support, resizing, and optimization **Install: @travetto/image** ```bash npm install @travetto/image # or yarn add @travetto/image ``` This module provides functionality for image resizing, and image optimization. This is primarily meant to be used in conjunction with other modules, like the [Email Compilation Support](https://github.com/travetto/travetto/tree/main/module/email-compiler#readme "Email compiling module") module. It can also be invoked directly as needed (as it can be very handy for batch processing images on the command line). ## Sharp The in process operations leverage [sharp](https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/) and will perform within expectations, and will execute substantially faster than invoking a subprocess. **Code: Simple Image Resize** ```typescript import { createReadStream, createWriteStream } from 'node:fs'; import { pipeline } from 'node:stream/promises'; import { ImageUtil } from '@travetto/image'; export class ResizeService { async resizeImage(imgPath: string, width: number, height: number): Promise { const stream = await ImageUtil.convert(createReadStream(imgPath), { w: width, h: height }); const out = imgPath.replace(/[.][^.]+$/, (ext) => `.resized${ext}`); await pipeline(stream, createWriteStream(out)); return out; } } ```
