Optimize and download one or more online image files with the reSmush.it API. The API is free for personal use and accepts files smaller than 5 MB.
Arguments
- url
A character vector of URLs pointing to hosted image files. The API can optimize PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP and TIFF files.
- outfile
A character vector of paths where optimized files are stored. By default, files are created in
tempdir()with the samebasename()as each file inurl.outfilemust have the same length asurl.- overwrite
Logical. Should existing files in
outfilebe overwritten? IfFALSE, existing paths are made unique with a numeric suffix, such asexample_01.png.- progress
Logical. Should a progress bar be displayed?
- report
Logical. Should a summary report be displayed in the console?
- qlty
An integer between
0and100indicating the optimization level. This only affects JPEG files. For optimal results, use values above90.- exif_preserve
Logical. Should EXIF metadata be preserved? The default is
FALSE, which removes it.
Value
A data frame with source and destination paths, file sizes, compression
ratios and status notes, returned invisibly. Successful API calls also write
the optimized files to disk. If outfile contains duplicate paths,
resmush_url() makes them unique with suffixes such as _01 and _02.
