A progressive image loader for Silverstripe 4
This module does progressive image loading using IntersectionObserver (v1).
Browser support for IntersectionObserver (currently all the important ones).
While the module does add loading="lazy"
to img tags, this module provides a polyfill for browsers that don't yet support image lazy loading natively (tl;dr Safari).
The only supported method of installing this module is via composer
composer require nswdpc/silverstripe-progressive-image
Call the thumbnail rendering methods directly within your template:
<% with $Image %>
$ProgressiveFill(420,280,90)
<% end_with %>
In place of
<% with $Image %>
$Fill(420,280)
<% end_with %>
When one of the $Progressive*
methods is called, Requirements will automatically be added via the Requirements API, these are loaded via data: uris with SRI hashes supplied
NSWDPC
ProgressiveImage
ProgressiveImage.ss -> template containing HTML loading the image
Script.ss -> provides the JS to handle image replacement
Style.ss -> provides CSS to assist with image replacement
A thumbnail with 10% of the width/height of the requested size and a quality of 1 will be created. This will be the main image to load.
The final image will be created using the requested size and quality (420x280 @ 80% quality in the ProgressiveFill example above)
When the page loads, the tiny, low quality image will display by default, once the image scrolls or appears in the viewport, the larger image will load, thanks to IntersectionObserver.
To support Content Security Policies (CSP), the controller extension loading inline scripts and css plus related templates have been removed.
