Resize images with Cloudinary

Thanks to the Cloudinary generous limits we are able to resize images from any source. Just prepend required width and height to the image url:

https://socatar.com/github/terales/50-50
                           width - ^^ ^^ - height

If you omit size (ex. https://socatar.com/github/terales) than 100×100 image would be served. For you custom deployment you can modify it via environment variables, see .env-template.

When Cloudinary integration is enabled Socatar.com will get the url of required image and redirect it to Cloudinary fetch with transformations applied.

Get an original image with a special original size:

https://socatar.com/github/terales/original
