vite-plugin-image-optimizer v1.1.8

Features

• Optimize SVG assets using SVGO and pass custom configs.
• Optimize scalar assets (png, jpeg, gif, tiff, webp, avif) using Sharp.js with the option to pass custom configs for each extension type.
• Option to process all assets from your public directory defined in the bundler.
• Configure test, include, and exclude to filter assets.
• Skip processing assets if their optimized size is greater than their original size.
• Log the optimization stats showing the before and after size difference, ratio and total savings (optional)

Motivation

This plugin is based on the awesome image-minimizer-webpack-plugin for Webpack. I wanted to combine the optimization capabilities of Sharp.js and SVGO in a single package and I couldn't find a plugin for Vite that could accomplish this. I initially thought of adding squoosh and imagemin support as well but dropped the idea since they are no longer maintained.

Installation

You can add it as a dev dependency to any of the package managers (NPM, Yarn, PNPM)

Supports Vite >=3 and Node >=14

npm install vite-plugin-image-optimizer --save-dev

Warning

sharp and svgo don't come installed as part of the package. You will have to install them manually and add it as a dev dependency. This is a design decision so you can choose to skip installing sharp if you only want to optimize svg assets using svgo and vice versa.

npm install sharp --save-dev

npm install svgo --save-dev

Usage

import { ViteImageOptimizer } from 'vite-plugin-image-optimizer';
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';

export default defineConfig(() => {
  return {
    plugins: [
      ViteImageOptimizer({
        /* pass your config */
      }),
    ],
  };
});

Default Configuration

The default configuration is made for lossless compression of image assets.

test

Type: RegExp

Default: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|tiff|webp|svg|avif)$/i

Test to match files against.

exclude

Type: String | RegExp | Array<string>

Default: undefined

Files to exclude.

include

Logs the optimization stats to terminal output with file size difference in kB, percent increase/decrease and total savings.

ansiColors

Type: boolean

Default: true

Logs the optimization stats or errors with ansi colors in the terminal. Set it to false for shells that don't support color text.

svg

Type: SVGOConfig

Default:

{
  multipass: true,
  plugins: [
    {
      name: 'preset-default',
      params: {
        overrides: {
          cleanupNumericValues: false,
