#Vue Integration

Use the Pixault JavaScript SDK with Vue 3 Composition API for image management, responsive rendering, and uploads.

#Setup

npm install @pixault/sdk

// composables/usePixault.js
import { PixaultUrl } from '@pixault/sdk';
const pxUrl = new PixaultUrl({
  baseUrl: 'https://img.pixault.io',
  project: 'myapp',
});
export function usePixault() {
  function buildUrl(imageId, { width, height, fit, quality, format } = {}) {
    let builder = pxUrl.image(imageId);
    if (width) builder = builder.width(width);
    if (height) builder = builder.height(height);
    if (fit) builder = builder.fit(fit);
    if (quality) builder = builder.quality(quality);
    return builder.format(format || 'webp').build();
  }
  function buildSrcSet(imageId, widths = [400, 800, 1200]) {
    return widths
      .map(w => `${buildUrl(imageId, { width: w })} ${w}w`)
      .join(', ');
  }
  function buildPlaceholder(imageId) {
    return buildUrl(imageId, { width: 40, quality: 20 });
  }
  return { buildUrl, buildSrcSet, buildPlaceholder };
}

#Responsive Image Component

<!-- components/PixaultImage.vue -->
<script setup>
import { computed } from 'vue';
import { usePixault } from '@/composables/usePixault';
const props = defineProps({
  imageId: { type: String, required: true },
  alt: { type: String, default: '' },
  widths: { type: Array, default: () => [400, 800, 1200] },
  sizes: { type: String, default: '(max-width: 600px) 400px, (max-width: 1024px) 800px, 1200px' },
});
const { buildUrl, buildSrcSet, buildPlaceholder } = usePixault();
const src = computed(() => buildUrl(props.imageId, { width: 800 }));
const srcset = computed(() => buildSrcSet(props.imageId, props.widths));
const placeholder = computed(() => buildPlaceholder(props.imageId));
</script>
<template>
  <img
    :src="src"

    :alt="alt"
