Convert any image to webp


Recommended Posts

Can anyone of you fine folks take a look at this:

https://medium.com/@andysolomon/converting-your-images-to-webp-with-imagemagick-a9c56cf6b579

And see if you would be able to create a plugin that will use Imagick to convert to .webp ANY image uploaded as an attachment via the Pages and Forums applications.

If you can come up with a solution, please PM with a quote.

I'm a serious client looking for a serious solution. 👍🏼

Thanks in advance!

This is a difficult one to make since it require server resources for it to work.

Doing it for one client might be doable, but unless you want to spend a lot of time in support, I would think twice about making it a plugin for the marketplace due to the many configurations hosting services offer.

Maybe there already are services for this though that can be set up in a plugin that just connect that service with the images to transform? Something like: https://www.convertapi.com/jpg-to-webp ?

That could be doable perhaps?

This is a much better solution than relying on something that runs on your server, and, I think, a plugin like this would be fairly simple to make. ConvertAPI might become quite expensive though, depending on your usage, but I'm sure there are similar services that cost less.
