How to get webp transparency?

[fagsoft1]

I've been using webp for my images but when I try to used for an image with a transparent background, the image gets a white background instead.

So, is there any configuration to set transparency for webp?

Thanks.

I'll be happy to review a PR for that.

Seems fixed by using a later version of pilkit (that seems like it could use a release!)

I added this to my requirements.txt:

git+https://github.com/matthewwithanm/pilkit.git@09ffa2ad33318ae5fd3464655c14c7f01ffc2097#egg=pilkit

Woo! Glad to have fixed this on our project! django-imagekit going to save a lot of time, ty for the work on this.

Hi!, could you confirm with is the last version of pilkit? I'm using the 2.0 and is not still working @ckcollab

Yeah, like I mentioned: I think they could use a new release!

Will have to install from a SHA until a release is done @fabgarsan

Done, but it is not working. Maybe I have something wrong or missing? this is what I have:

    logo_webp = ImageSpecField(
        source='logo',
        format='WEBP',
    )

Thanks for your help!

Not sure man, probably a mistake on your end somewhere. I'd examine your environment and confirm proper pilkit installed (by comparing code on github, or something)

@ckcollab I have the same problem.

image_medium = ProcessedImageField(
        upload_to='cars',
        processors=[ResizeToFit(604, 604)],
        format='PNG',
        options={'quality': 60},
        verbose_name='Photo')
image_medium_webp = ImageSpecField(
        source='image_medium',
        processors=[ResizeToFit(604, 604)],
        format='WEBP',
        options={'quality': 60})

I have no problem with png images, but webp has a white background.

Did you resolve your issue? I too am having the same issue and I have pilkit installed from SHA.

pilkit = {editable = true, ref = "09ffa2ad33318ae5fd3464655c14c7f01ffc2097", git = "https://github.com/matthewwithanm/pilkit.git"}.

Curious if any steps you took to resolve might help me resolve as well.
