This plugin can use 4 tools to optimize/generate images:
imagemin- optimize your images by default, since it is stable and works with all types of images- DEPRECATED
squoosh- while working in experimental mode with.jpg,.jpeg,.png,.webp,.aviffile types. sharp- High performance Node.js image processing, the fastest module to resize and compress JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and TIFF images. Uses the libvips library.svgo- tool for optimizing SVG vector graphics files. Supports only SVG files minification.
Warning
By default we don't install anything
To begin, you'll need to install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin and image minimizer/generator:
npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin imagemin --save-devWarning
imagemin uses plugin to optimize/generate images, so you need to install them too
- DEPRECATED
squoosh:
npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin @squoosh/lib --save-devnpm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin sharp --save-devsvgo:
npm install image-minimizer-webpack-plugin svgo --save-devImages can be optimized in two modes:
Optimize with imagemin
Note
- imagemin-mozjpeg can be configured in lossless and lossy mode.
- imagemin-svgo can be configured in lossless and lossy mode.
Explore the options to get the best result for you.

},
},
},
}),
],
},
};If you want to use loader or plugin standalone see sections below, but this is not recommended.
By default, plugin configures loader (please use the loader option if you want to disable this behaviour), therefore you should not setup standalone loader when you use a plugin setup.
Loader optimizes or generates images using options, so inlined images via data URI (i.e. data:) will be optimized or generated too, not inlined images will be optimized too.
The plugin supports the following query parameters:
width/w- allows you to set the image widthheight/h- allows you to set the image heightas- to specify the preset option
Examples:
const myImage1 = new URL("image.png?width=150&height=120", import.meta.url);
const myImage2 = new URL("image.png?w=150&h=120", import.meta.url);
// You can omit one of the parameters to auto-scale
const myImage3 = new URL("image.png?w=150", import.meta.url);
// It works with the `preset` query parameter
const myImage4 = new URL("image.png?as=webp&w=150&h=120", import.meta.url);
// You can use `auto` to reset `width` or `height` from the `preset` option
const myImage5 = new URL("image.png?as=webp&w=150&h=auto", import.meta.url);.class {
background: url("./image.png?width=150&height=120");
}<picture>
<source srcset="photo.jpg?as=avif&width=150&height=120" type="image/avif" />
<source srcset="photo.jpg?as=webp&width=150&height=120" type="image/webp" />
<img src="photo.jpg?width=150&height=120" alt="photo" />
</picture>NOTE: you need to setup avif and webp presets, example for webp
In your webpack.config.js, add the ImageMinimizerPlugin.loader and specify the asset modules options (if you use images in import):
webpack.config.js
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");

Allow to setup default generators.
Useful if you need generate webp/avif/etc from other formats.
Warning
If no generator was found for the image (i.e. no
?as=webpwas found in query params), theminimizeroption will be used. Therefore, it is recommended to configure generator outputs optimized image.
Warning
The option will not work if you disable
loader(i.e. set theloaderoption tofalse).
ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminGenerate- DEPRECATED
ImageMinimizerPlugin.squooshGenerate ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate
Example webp generator:
webpack.config.js
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimizer: [
"...",
new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
generator: [
{
// You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
preset: "webp",
implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.imageminGenerate,
options: {
// Please specify only one plugin here, multiple plugins will not work
plugins: ["imagemin-webp"],
},
},
],
}),
],
},
};webpack.config.js
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimizer: [
"...",
new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
generator: [
{
// You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
preset: "webp",
implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.squooshGenerate,
options: {
encodeOptions: {
// Please specify only one codec here, multiple codecs will not work
webp: {
quality: 90,
},
},
},
},
],
}),
],
},
};webpack.config.js
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimizer: [
"...",
new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
generator: [
{
// You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
preset: "webp",
implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
options: {
encodeOptions: {
// Please specify only one codec here, multiple codecs will not work
webp: {
quality: 90,
},
},
},
},
],
}),
],
},
};Now you can generate the new image using:
// Old approach for getting URL
import webp from "./file.jpg?as=webp";
// Assets modules
console.log(new URL("./file.jpg?as=webp"));div {
background: url("./file.jpg?as=webp");
}You can use ?as=webp in any type of files.
Example multiple generators:
webpack.config.js
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimizer: [
"...",
new ImageMinimizerPlugin({
generator: [
{
// You can apply generator using `?as=webp`, you can use any name and provide more options
preset: "webp",
implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
options: {
encodeOptions: {
webp: {
lossless: false,
},
},
},
},
{
// You can apply generator using `?as=avif`, you can use any name and provide more options
preset: "avif",
implementation: ImageMinimizerPlugin.sharpGenerate,
options: {
encodeOptions: {
avif: {
lossless: false,
},
},
},
},
],
}),
],
},
};squoosh and sharp generator supports more options, for example you can resize an image:
webpack.config.js
const ImageMinimizerPlugin = require("image-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimizer: [
