og-img
This is a framework agnostic package for generating Open Graph images using Satori and resvg. Built using Web APIs, this package can be executed with Node.js and on the edge. You can use this package to add dynamic Open Graph images to your SvelteKit, Astro, SolidStart or Qwik website.
The difference to
@vercel/ogis that this package loads the WebAssembly module needed to convert SVG to PNG lazily at runtime and provides a framework agnostic workaround for defining the content of the image usingsatori-html.
Installation
This library is available for Node and Bun.
npm install og-img # npm
yarn add og-img # yarn
pnpm add og-img # pnpm
bun add og-img # bunHow it works
To generate an image, all you need to do is return an ImageResponse via a server endpoint (it probably will not work with SSG). You can use html to easily define the content of your image.
To get proper syntax highlighting for the tagged template literal in Visual Studio Code, you can install the lit-html extension.
import { fetchFont, ImageResponse, html } from 'og-img';
// With SvelteKit
export async function GET() {
return new ImageResponse(
// Use Tailwind CSS or style attribute
html`
<div tw="text-4xl text-green-700" style="background-color: tan">
Hello, world!
</div>
`,
{
width: 1200,
height: 600,
fonts: [
{
name: 'Roboto',
// Use `fs` (Node.js only) or `fetch` to read font file
data: await fetchFont('https://www.example.com/fonts/roboto-400.ttf'),
weight: 400,
style: 'normal',
},
],
}
);
}
// With Qwik
export const onGet = async ({ send }) => {
send(
new ImageResponse(
// Use Tailwind CSS or style attribute
html`
<div tw="text-4xl text-green-700" style="background-color: tan">
Hello, world!
</div>
`,
{
width: 1200,
height: 600,
fonts: [
{
name: 'Roboto',
// Use `fs` (Node.js only) or `fetch` to read font file
data: await fetchFont(
'https://www.example.com/fonts/roboto-400.ttf'
),
weight: 400,
style: 'normal',
},
],
}
)
);
};Then all you need to do is point to your API endpoint with a meta tag in the head of your website to embed the Open Graph image.
<head>
<title>Hello, world!</title>
<meta property="og:image" content="https://www.example.com/og-image" />
</head>You can use URL parameters to dynamically change the content of your Open Graph image. Take a look at Valibot's Open Graph image. You can find the source code here.
