AzureReader2 Plugin for ImageResizer

This plugin allows you to map folders in your website to Azure Blob Containers and processes and optimize images therein.

Ex. https://example.com/azure/<container>/<folder>/<file>.jpg?width=100

Configuration

# AzureReader2 plugin

Allows images located in Azure Blob Storage to be read, processed, resized, and served. Requests for unmodified images can be redirected to the blobstore itself.

Ben Foster has written a great walkthrough on using ImageResizer and AzureReader2; it provides screenshots and more detail than our reference guide here.

Installation

1. Install-Package ImageResizer.Plugins.AzureReader2 2In the <plugins /> section of Web.config, insert one of the following, depending on your scenario.

<add name="AzureReader2" prefix="~/azure" connectionString="NamedConnectionString" />

<add name="AzureReader2" prefix="~/azure" connectionString="DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=myAccountName;AccountKey=myAccountKey" />

<add name="AzureReader2" prefix="~/azure" connectionString="UseDevelopmentStorage=true" />

Configuration reference

AzureReader2 uses a prefix="~/azure/" by default.

• connectionString - The name of a connection string or the actual connection string
• endpoint - The server address to perform redirects to when we don't need to modify the blob. Ex. "http://<account>.blob.core.windows.net/" or "http://127.0.0.1:10000/account/" Automatically populated based on the connectionString.
• redirectToBlobIfUnmodified="true" If true, AzureReader2 will 302 redirect to the original blob. If false, it will be proxied and possibly cached.
