Hello,
Use case
We'd like to use Imagor to add rotated text watermarks (45°).
Something that would look like that:
We haven't found a way to do that with the text filter.
Working solution
We've managed to do it with a image filter and a server that produces a svg that is already rotated.
The url for a "big" watermark looks like this (the result is the picture above):
http://localhost:8000/unsafe/fit-in/2200x2200/filters:no_upscale():image(/unsafe/full-fit-in/fxf/http://wm-scaled/CFR20240101QSDQSD.svg,center,center,0,soft-light):format(jpeg):quality(80)/http://localhost/file.jpg
And the url for a tiled watermark looks like this:
http://localhost:8000/unsafe/fit-in/2200x2200/filters:no_upscale():image(/unsafe/fit-in/fxf/http://wm-tiled/CFR20240101QSDQSD.svg,repeat,repeat,0,soft-light):format(jpeg):quality(80)/http://localhost/file.jpg
Result file (unreadable watermark here, but the input file is very small compared to the files we'll watermark):
Why this is not ideal
This workaround requires hosting an additional API just to generate the SVG watermark asset.
We would like to avoid that extra moving part if possible.
Possible solutions
We've thought of these solutions and would like to have your opinion, please, on their feasibility:
- The
text filter could support rotation.
- The
image filter could support base64 inline data for the svg? We could produce it upfront and provide it in the url.
- Alternatively, the
POST endpoint could support providing additional images with the multipart body, whose names could be referenced in the url. That should follow the current design.
- Any other idea?
Unfortunately, we're not Go developers. But if you accept it, we may provide AI generated PRs for any of the solution above, if we manage to produce them and if they meet our "non Go but experienced developers"' standards of quality 😅
Thank you for your help!
