Imgix with EPiServer?

Hi!

I am wondering if anybody has ever tried to use imgix to render images in EPiServer. The challenges I have met so far, is that imgix need access to the blobs. So I tried to save the blobs in Amazon S3, and set it up with imgix.

The problem then, is that the imgix has the guid instead of the filename in the url.

E.g.: http://sitename.imgix.net/18dd89f3df594c69bd607873fe1273a7/a8fe8b347e484911a9a26101a919b69e.jpeg

But the url we want is /globalassets/.jpeg.

How do I get around this?

I would like to migrate to amazon without having to manually add alle the images again.

CDN i always a bit tricky to handle. There are a couple of blogpost about image cdn mostely with azure though. They might be of assistance. We have used a module for this:

Best of luck

Thanks, but I managed to resolve this by getting the image url using the EPiServer.Amazon package, like this:

var imageUrl = imgixUrl + image.Full.ID.AbsolutePath;
