Does anyone know how (where?) to configure ImageSharp for allowing to process images from an external server? With ImageProcessor it was a setting in an XML file, but with ImageSharp, I just can't figure it out...

I'm cooking something 🙂 https://github.com/skttl/ImageSharpCommunity.Providers.Remote

@skttl That looks useful! If you've not already seen.... I ran with something based on the GIST here but simplified for my needs.. https://gist.github.com/marklagendijk/e5fd1934391a515f8c974c87024ed39c https://github.com/SixLabors/ImageSharp.Web/discussions/167 PS I used

csharp
 public class MatterportImageProviderComposer : IComposer
 {
     public void Compose(IUmbracoBuilder builder)
     {
         //https://github.com/umbraco/Umbraco-CMS/discussions/11938#discussioncomment-2654842
         var descriptors = builder.Services.Where(x => x.ServiceType == typeof(IImageProvider)).ToList();
         builder.Services.RemoveAll<IImageProvider>();
         descriptors.Insert(0, ServiceDescriptor.Singleton<IImageProvider, MatterportImageProvider>());
         builder.Services.TryAddEnumerable(descriptors);

         //builder.Services.Insert(0, ServiceDescriptor.Singleton<IImageProvider, MatterportImageProvider>());
     }
 }

To inject the additional imageProvider, so as not to have to

addImageSharp()

again and break anything Umbraco Core does? Might help not break Cloud blob storage cache?

Yes, that is also what I'm probably going to end up with. I am curious though, if I could just do the last line (builder.Services.Insert) instead of creating the list of all providers, and then adding them.

I think I tried a few things.. thinking like you I could just insert on the fly but couldn't get it to work so fell back to a working option. (was an early umb 10 when I last touched it)

Yes, so the remote image provider needs to go first, else WebRootProvider will take the request

Thanks @skttl and @Mike Chambers — confirmed my sad predictions... 🙈 I probably won't be able to do this... (I will try, of course, and spend a lot of time fiddling with builder/composer stuff I don't understand, and eventually give up 🤣)

Lucky you - my plan is to do an Umbraco package on top of that, so all you have to do is to add the necessary settings in appsettings.json 🙂

Now that makes sense! 🙌

If you want to try... https://www.nuget.org/packages/Umbraco.Community.ImageSharpRemoteImages This one installs an appsettings-schema file, so you should get intellisense in that too, else the config looks like this: "Umbraco": { "Community": { "ImageSharpRemoteImages": { "Settings": [ { "Prefix": "/remote", "AllowedDomains": [ "our.umbraco.org" ], } ] } }, You can also set "AllowAllDomains" to true if you like to take risks, or use "AllowedDomainsRegex" for regex'es. You can see the options here: https://github.com/skttl/ImageSharpCommunity.Providers.Remote/blob/main/src/ImageSharpCommunity.Providers.Remote/Configuration/RemoteImageProviderSetting.cs
