About imagor
Imagor is a fast, secure image processing server and Go library, utilizing one of the most efficient image processing libraries, libvips. It supports a wide range of image operations, including resizing, cropping, rotating, flipping, and applying filters. Imagor is designed to be stateless and can be easily deployed using Docker. It supports various storage backends such as HTTP, AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, and the local filesystem. The server is highly configurable, allowing users to define loaders, storages, and processors to suit their specific needs. Imagor also provides support for URL-safe image operations, enabling on-the-fly image transformations through URL parameters. Security features include HMAC-based URL signing to prevent unauthorized access. It is extensible, with support for custom filters and processors. For video thumbnail generation, Imagor integrates with ffmpeg through the imagorvideo extension, allowing the extraction of video frames.
