Linking to imported images

[erebusstudio]

Images work if you write their full url, but I cannot find how to use imported images for the polygon url.

Example :

import deer from './deer.svg';
...
"polygon": {
                  "url": {deer}
}

This doesn't work. Is there a method to automatically add the link to the imported images to the "url" parameter ?

Thanks a lot in advance.

If your bundler is creating an url from your import, just use

"url": deer

Check this example (from the library demo repository).

@Wufe I can second the error where imported images do not show up when bundler is creating url from import.

@alexieyizhe Please provide example code

Here's a rough example of a config with imported images @Wufe:

import { CircleParticle, SquareParticle } from "../images";

const particlesConfig = {
  particles: {
    number: {
      value: 25,
      density: {
        enable: true,
        value_area: 1000,
      },
    },
    line_linked: {
      enable: false,
    },
    move: {
      speed: 1,
      out_mode: "out",
    },
    shape: {
      type: ["images"],
      images: [
        {
          src: CircleParticle, // this will NOT show up
          height: 10,
          width: 10,
        },
        {
          src: SquareParticle, // this will NOT show up
          height: 10,
          width: 10,
        },
        {
          src: "/square.svg", // this WILL show up
          height: 10,
          width: 10,
        },
        {
          src: "/zigzag.svg", // this WILL show up
          height: 10,
          width: 10,
        },
      ],
    },
    color: {
      value: "#CCC",
    },
    size: {
      value: 10,
      random: true,
    },
  },
  retina_detect: false,
};

@alexieyizhe Make sure the content of CircleParticle and SquareParticle is a string, containing a reachable url.

For example, if your environment is hosting the page at http://localhost:8080 and the CircleParticle variable contains ../image.jpg, the resulting url would be http://localhost:8080/../image.jpg ( which is not reachable).

If your bundler creates an image url like /image.38cfa92[..].jpgand it is reachable at http://localhost:8080/image.38cfa92[..].jpg, it will work.

[alexieyizhe]

@Wufe I believe that CircleParticle and SquareParticle are valid string image URLs. I've imported them in other components and used them in cases like <img src={CircleParticle} /> with no issue.

@alexieyizhe Can you provide a reproducible example within CodeSandbox ?

had some issues here as well. At first ["images"], didnt seem to work. I changed to simply "image" with success, but once I changed back to ["images"] it started working. curious... here's my working config:

  particles: {
    number: {
      value: 14,
      density: {
        enable: true,
        value_area: 800,
      },
    },
    color: {
      value: "#333333",
    },
    shape: {
      type: "images",
      stroke: {
        width: 3,
        color: "#B7046B",
      },

          width: 20,
          height: 20,
        },
      ],

If your bundler is creating an url from your import, just use

"url": deer

This saved me a lot of time thanks a bunch
