Image component - add you'r own loader

[pontusab]

Edit: Answered below #18450 (comment)

Could not find if this is possible, but we have our own resize service that we would like to use in the Image component, would it be possible to add our own custom Loader?

I hope for that too.

We didn't add it initially as it complicated the feature a lot, we'll add it at a later point in time 👍

[pontusab]

Thanks! Sounds great!

@timneutkens - how can we help out with getting this added in? We run our own image optimisation service. This is a really big blocker not having custom loaders for using the next/image component.

It's being worked on: #19325

Am I correct in thinking that, while there isn't an official way to add a custom loader (yet), I could simply pick one of the in-built ones e.g. 'imgix' and provide path to my custom image service that mimicks the Imgix API?

[pontusab]

True! That's what we ended up with!

There are currently several Loader additions PRs out.

#18391
#18495
#18561

It's hard to decide what to support and what not to support.

This is now possible! https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/image-optimization#loader
