image-minimizer-webpack-plugin - npm

A Plugin and Loader for webpack to optimize (compress) all images using imagemin. Do not worry about size of images, now they are always optimized/compressed.

image-minimizer-webpack-plugin

This plugin can use four different tools to optimize or generate images:

[!WARNING]

By default, we don’t install any additional packages.

Install an Optimization/Generation Tool

To begin, you'll need to install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin along with an image optimizer or generator:

npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin imagemin --save-dev

[!WARNING]

imagemin uses plugins to optimize or generate images, so you’ll need to install those as well.

npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin @squoosh/lib --save-dev
npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin sharp --save-dev
npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin svgo --save-dev

Images can be optimized in two modes:

  1. Lossless (without loss of quality).
  2. Lossy (with some loss of quality).

[!NOTE]

Explore the available options to find the best results for your use case.

Recommended imagemin plugins for lossless optimization

npm install imagemin-gifsicle imagemin-jpegtran imagemin-optipng imagemin-svgo --save-dev

Recommended imagemin plugins for lossy optimization

npm install imagemin-gifsicle imagemin-mozjpeg imagemin-pngquant imagemin-svgo --save-dev

For imagemin-svgo v9.0.0+, you need to use the official SVGO configuration

            },
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
Query Parameters (only squoosh and sharp currently)

The plugin supports the following query parameters:

Examples:

const myImage1 = new URL("image.png?width=150&height=120", import.meta.url);
const myImage2 = new URL("image.png?w=150&h=120", import.meta.url);
// You can omit one of the parameters to auto-scale
const myImage3 = new URL("image.png?w=150", import.meta.url);
// It works with the `preset` query parameter
const myImage4 = new URL("image.png?as=webp&w=150&h=120", import.meta.url);
// You can use `auto` to reset `width` or `height` from the `preset` option
const myImage5 = new URL("image.png?as=webp&w=150&h=auto", import.meta.url);
// You can use `unit` to get the non-retina resize of images that are retina sized
const myImage6 = new URL("image.png?width=50&unit=percent", import.meta.url);
.class {
  background: url("./image.png?width=150&height=120");
}
<picture>
  <source srcset="photo.jpg?as=avif&width=150&height=120" type="image/avif" />
  <source srcset="photo.jpg?as=webp&width=150&height=120" type="image/webp" />
  <img src="photo.jpg?width=150&height=120" alt="photo" />
</picture>

[!NOTE]

You need to setup avif and webp presets, See the example for webp.

Documentation: Using loaders.

In your webpack.config.js, add the ImageMinimizerPlugin.loader and specify the asset modules options (if you use images in import):

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      // You need this, if you are using `import file from "file.ext"`. Not needed for `new URL(...)` syntax
      {
        test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
        type: "asset",
      },
      // We recommend using only for the "production" mode
      {
        test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
        enforce: "pre",
        use: [
          {
            loader: ImageMinimizerPlugin.loader,
            options: {
              minimizer: {
                implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminMinify,

            let result;

            try {
              result = await minifyAndReturnBuffer(original.data);
            } catch (error) {
              // Store error and return `null` if there was an error
              original.errors.push(error);

                // Please always set it to prevent double minification
                minimized: true,
                // Optional
                minimizedBy: ["custom-name-of-minimication"],
              },
            };
          },
          options: {
            // Custom options
          },
        },
      }),
    ],

};
Multiple minimizers example

Allows to setup multiple minimizers.

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        minimizer: [
          {
            // `sharp` will handle all bitmap formats (JPG, PNG, GIF, ...)
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpMinify,

            // exclude SVG if implementation support it. Not required for `sharp`.
            // filter: (source, sourcePath) => !(/\.(svg)$/i.test(sourcePath)),

            options: {
              encodeOptions: {
                // Your options for `sharp`
                // https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/api-output
              },
            },
          },
          {
            // `svgo` will handle vector images (SVG)
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.svgoMinify,
            options: {
              encodeOptions: {
                // Pass over SVGs multiple times to ensure all optimizations are applied. False by default
                multipass: true,
                plugins: [
                  // set of built-in plugins enabled by default
                  // see: https://github.com/svg/svgo#default-preset
                  "preset-default",

Allows to set the filename. Supported values see in webpack template strings (see the File-level section for supported patterns).

We also support [width] and [height] placeholders (only when using sharp and squoosh).

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({

            },
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Example function usage:

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        minimizer: {
          filename: () => "optimized-[name][ext]",

            },
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Type:

type generator = {
  implementation: (
    original: {
      filename: string;
      data: Buffer;
      warnings: Error[];
      errors: Error[];
      info: import("webpack").AssetInfo;
    },
    options?: Record<string, any> | undefined,
  ) => Promise<{
    filename: string;
    data: Buffer;
    warnings: Error[];
    errors: Error[];
    info: import("webpack").AssetInfo;
  }> & {
    setup?: (() => void) | undefined;
    teardown?: (() => void) | undefined;
  };
  options?: Record<string, any> | undefined;
  filter?: (source: Buffer, sourcePath: string) => boolean | undefined;
  filename?:
    | string
    | ((
        pathData: {
          filename?: string | undefined;
        },
        assetInfo?: import("webpack").AssetInfo | undefined,
      ) => string)
    | undefined;
  preset?: string | undefined;
  type?: "import" | "asset" | undefined;
}[];

Default: undefined

Allow to setup default image generators. This is useful when you want to generate additional formats like webp, avif, etc., from the original images.

[!WARNING]

If no generator was found for the image (i.e. no ?as=webp was found in query params), the minimizer option will be used. Therefore, it is recommended to configure generator outputs optimized image.

[!WARNING]

The option will not work if you disable the loader (i.e. set the loader option to false).

Generator example for imagemin

Example webp generator:

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp`
            // You can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp",
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminGenerate,
            options: {
              // Please specify only one plugin here, multiple plugins will not work
              plugins: ["imagemin-webp"],
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};
DEPRECATED Generator example for squoosh

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp",
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.squooshGenerate,
            options: {
              encodeOptions: {
                // Please specify only one codec here, multiple codecs will not work
                webp: {
                  quality: 90,
                },
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};
Generator example for sharp

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp",
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
            options: {
              encodeOptions: {
                // Please specify only one codec here, multiple codecs will not work
                webp: {
                  quality: 90,
                },
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Now you can generate the new image using:

// Old approach for getting URL
import webp from "./file.jpg?as=webp";

// Assets modules
console.log(new URL("./file.jpg?as=webp"));
div {
  background: url("./file.jpg?as=webp");
}

You can use ?as=webp in any type of files.

Example multiple generators:

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp",
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
            options: {
              encodeOptions: {
                webp: {
                  lossless: false,
                },
              },
            },
          },
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=avif`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "avif",
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
            options: {
              encodeOptions: {
                avif: {
                  lossless: false,
                },
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};

squoosh and sharp generator supports more options, for example you can resize an image:

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp-100-50`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp-100-50",
            // implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.squooshGenerate,
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
            options: {
              resize: {
                enabled: true,
                width: 100,
                height: 50,
              },
              encodeOptions: {
                webp: {
                  quality: 90,
                },
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};

You can find more information in the squoosh GitHub repository.

For only sharp currently, you can even generate the non-retina resizes of images:

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp-1x`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp-1x",
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
            options: {
              resize: {
                enabled: true,
                width: 50,
                unit: "percent",
              },
              encodeOptions: {
                webp: {
                  quality: 90,
                },
              },
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};
Generator example for user defined implementation

You can use your own generator implementation.

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        generator: [
          {
            // You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
            preset: "webp",
            implementation: async (original, options) => {
              const inputExt = path.extname(original.filename).toLowerCase();

              if (inputExt !== ".xxx") {
                // Store error and return `null` if the implementation does not support this file type
                original.errors.push(error);
                return null;
              }

              let result;

              try {
                result = await minifyAndReturnBuffer(original.data);
              } catch (error) {
                // Store error and return `null` if there was an error
                original.errors.push(error);
                return null;
              }

              return {
                filename: original.filename,
                data: result,
                warnings: [...original.warnings],
                errors: [...original.errors],
                info: {
                  ...original.info,
                  // Please always set it to prevent double minification
                  generated: true,
                  // Optional
                  generatedBy: ["custom-name-of-minification"],
                },
              };
            },
            options: {
              // Your options
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Type:

type type = "import" | "asset" | undefined;

Default: "import"

Allows you to apply the generator for either import or assets from compilation (useful for copied assets). By default, generators are applying on import/require, but sometimes you need to generate new images from other plugins (for example - copy-webpack-plugin). If you need this, please set asset value for the type option.

webpack.config.js

const CopyPlugin = require("copy-webpack-plugin");
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        minimizer: {
          implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminMinify,
          options: {
            plugins: [
              "imagemin-gifsicle",
              "imagemin-mozjpeg",
              "imagemin-pngquant",
              "imagemin-svgo",
            ],
          },
        },
        generator: [
          {
            // Apply generator for copied assets
            type: "asset",
            // You can use `ImageMinimizerPlugin.squooshGenerate`
            // You can use `ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate`
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminGenerate,
            options: {
              plugins: ["imagemin-webp"],
            },
          },
        ],
      }),
    ],
  },
  plugins: [new CopyPlugin({ patterns: ["images/**/*.png"] })],
};

Type:

type preset = string | undefined;

Default: undefined

Configures the name of preset, i.e. you can use it in ?as=name.

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({

  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
        type: "asset",
      },
      {
        test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
        loader: ImageMinimizerPlugin.loader,
        enforce: "pre",
        options: {
          minimizer: {
            implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminMinify,
            options: {
              plugins: [
                "imagemin-gifsicle",
                "imagemin-mozjpeg",
                "imagemin-pngquant",
                "imagemin-svgo",
              ],
            },
          },
        },
      },
    ],
  },
};

For more information and supported options please read here.

Type:

type generator = {
  implementation: TransformerFunction<T>;
  options?: BasicTransformerOptions<T>;
  filter?: FilterFn | undefined;
  filename?: string | FilenameFn | undefined;
  preset?: string | undefined;
  type?: "import" | "asset" | undefined;
}[];

Default: undefined

Allow to setup default generators. This is useful for creating new image formats (e.g., webp, avif, etc.) from existing images.

Loader generator example for imagemin

The following example demonstrates how to configure a generator that converts images to the webp format using imagemin.

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
        type: "asset",
      },
      {
        test: /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg)$/i,
        loader: ImageMinimizerPlugin.loader,
        enforce: "pre",
        options: {
          generator: [
            {
              preset: "webp",
              implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminGenerate,
              options: {
                plugins: ["imagemin-webp"],
              },
            },
          ],
        },
      },
    ],
  },
};

This setup will automatically generate .webp versions of the original assets during the build process. For more information and supported options please read here.

Type:

type severityError = string;

Default: 'error'

Allows to choose how errors are displayed during image optimization.

Сan have the following values:

          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
};
imageminNormalizeConfig(config)

The function normalizes configuration (converts plugins names and options to Functions) for using in imagemin package directly.

const { imageminNormalizeConfig } = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
const imagemin = require("imagemin");

/*
  console.log(imageminConfig);
  =>
  {
    plugins: [Function, Function],
    pluginsMeta: [
      { name: "imagemin-jpegtran", version: "x.x.x", options: {} },
      { name: "imagemin-pngquant", version: "x.x.x", options: { quality: [0.6, 0.8] }
    ]
  }
*/

const imageminConfig = await imageminNormalizeConfig({
  plugins: ["jpegtran", ["pngquant", { quality: [0.6, 0.8] }]],
});

const files = await imagemin(["images/*.{jpg,png}"], {
  destination: "build/images",
  plugins: imageminConfig.plugins,
});

console.log(files);
// => [{data: <Buffer 89 50 4e …>, path: 'build/images/foo.jpg'}, …]
Optimize images based on size

You can use difference options (like progressive/interlaced/etc.) based on image size (example - don't do progressive transformation for small images).

What is progressive image? Answer here.

webpack.config.js

const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        minimizer: {
          implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminMinify,
          options: {
            plugins: [["jpegtran", { progressive: true }]],
          },
          // Only apply this one to files equal to or over 8192 bytes
          filter: (source) => {
            if (source.byteLength >= 8192) {
              return true;
            }

            return false;
          },
        },
      }),
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        minimizer: {
          implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminMinify,
          options: {
            plugins: [["jpegtran", { progressive: false }]],
          },
          // Only apply this one to files under 8192
          filter: (source) => {
            if (source.byteLength < 8192) {
              return true;
            }

            return false;
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Generate webp images from copied assets

You can use the generator feature to create modern image formats (like webp) from static assets copied using copy-webpack-plugin.

webpack.config.js

const CopyPlugin = require("copy-webpack-plugin");
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      "...",
      new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
        minimizer: {
          implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminMinify,
          options: {
            plugins: [
              "imagemin-gifsicle",
              "imagemin-mozjpeg",
