No examples on how to actually render images inline

[dooferorg]

As good as Sanity.IO seems to be, it's frustrating to use, at least with PHP, because the documentation seems lacking. While I can make a new type and have a serializer for it work as intended for text based entries, it seems very difficult to get an image type to actually render out.

Can we get some examples on how to use this php helper project to render out an image from an attribute within a document?

@dooferorg, sorry for the late response 😆
I ported the official @sanity/image-url JavaScript library to PHP. You can find it on sanity-image-url-php.
It can be installed via composer and passes all the tests used in the official library.

Hope this helps 🤔 😅

If there is already an official library written in PHP that handles "presenting" images, including cropping and hotspots, please let me know. If not, I would even favor if the image API supports cropping and hotspot as parameters, e.g.

https://cdn.sanity.io/images/zp7mbokg/production/G3i4emG6B8JnTmGoN0UjgAp8-300x450.jpg?hotspot=0,0,1,1&crop=0,0,0,0

where

• hotspot=0,0,1,1 represents the x, y, width, height values of the hotspot stored in the Sanity image.
• crop=0,0,0,0 represents the top, right, bottom, left values of the crop data stored in the Sanity image.
