Long shortcodes / How to best insert images from markdown

[druskus20]

Documentation issue

Summary

What's the best way to insert images from markdown. I would like to be able to specify: width, height. alt text, and op.

This is suggested on the docs:

{% set resized = resize_image(format="jpg", path=page.colocated_path ~ img_name, width=width, op="fit_width") %}
<img alt="{{ alt }}" src="{{ resized.url | safe }}" />

However, to the best of my knowledge this does not allow for default parameters and it becomes verbose. Creating different shortcodes for combinations of these parameters become cumbersome.

For example, we could create:

• image
• image_alt: alt text
• sized_image: width, height
• sized_image_alt: width, height and alt

But this does not scale well 4 shortcodes is already a bit too much.

@druskus20 Have you tried using the default filter? See https://keats.github.io/tera/docs/#default
