Unofficial fork of the Tinify API Client for .NET

Official Tinify GitHub repo

.NET client for the Tinify API, used for TinyPNG and TinyJPG. Tinify compresses your images intelligently. Read more at http://tinify.com.

Installation

Install the API client:

Install-Package Tinify.Unofficial

💥 Minor Breaking Change between v1.0.2 and v1.0.3

The Shrink methods on the TinifyClient were renamed:

• ShrinkFromFile  => ShrinkFromFileAsync
• ShrinkFromBuffer => ShrinkFromBufferAsync
• ShrinkFromUrl  => ShrinkFromUrlAsync

Usage

Initialize the TinifyClient

Simply construct a new instance of TinifyClient with your API key

Example

using Tinify.Unofficial;
var client = new TinifyClient("YOUR_API_KEY");

The client constructor also allows for the specifying of an HttpMessageHandler which allows you to manage any kind of custom or specialized handling needed: specifying a proxy, special SSL handling, etc. The TinifyClient does not assume ownership of this handler, you are responsible for managing its lifetime.

If no handler is specified then the default SocketsHttpHandler with a PooledConnectionLifetime setting of 5 minutes is used. (Note: this also applies to the .netstandard 2.1 target see StandardSocketsHttpHandler)

Example

public class MyProxy : IWebProxy
{
    private readonly Uri _uri;
    public ICredentials Credentials { get; set; }

    public MyProxy(string url)
    {
        Uri.TryCreate(url, UriKind.Absolute, out _uri));
        var user = _uri.UserInfo.Split(':');
        Credentials = new NetworkCredential(user[0], user[1]);
    }

    public Uri GetProxy(Uri destination) => _uri;

    public bool IsBypassed(Uri host) => host.IsLoopback;
}

---

var client = new TinifyClient("YOUR_API_KEY",
    new HttpClientHandler()
    {
        Proxy = new MyProxy(@"http://user:pass@localhost:8080"),
        UserProxy = true,
    });

Compress image using one of the ShrinkFrom methods

• ShrinkFromFileAsync
• ShrinkFromBufferAsync
• ShrinkFromUrlAsync
• ShrinkFromStreamAsync

Example

var client = new TinifyClient("YOUR_API_KEY");
await using var optimizedImage = await client.ShrinkFromFileAsync("unoptimized.png");
await optimizedImage.ToFileAsync("optimized.png");

This will upload the image to the Tinify image service and will return an OptimizedImage

Check current compression count

You can check your current compression count by accessing the static CompressionCount property of the TinifyClient class. This count is updated each time a response from the Tinify endpoint returns a compression count.

Example

var currentCompressionCount = TinifyClient.CompressionCount;

Other Tinify Transform Operations

To perform other transform operations (resize, convert, etc) simply call the TransformImage method on the optimized image. The TransformImage operation takes a single TransformOperations argument. The TransformOperations object must be constructed with at least one operation. Each of the Tinify operations are by the different operations that can be specified in the TransformOperations constructor.

Tinify API Operation	Tinify.Unofficial.Operation
resize	ResizeOperation
convert	ConvertOperation
preserve	PreserveOperation
store	CloudStoreOperation*

*note: CloudStoreOperation is an abstract class and has concrete implementations as AwsCloudStoreOperation and GoogleCloudStoreOperation

Example

await using var optimizedImage = await client.ShrinkFromFile("unoptimized.jpg");

var resizeOptions = new ResizeOperation(ResizeType.Fit, 50, 20);
var preserveOptions = new PreserveOperation(PreserveOptions.Copyright | PreserveOptions.Creation);
var transformOperations = new TransformOperations(resize: resizeOptions, preserve: preserveOptions);
await using var result = await optimizedImage.TransformImage(transformOperations);

await result.ToFileAsync("optimized_and_transformed.jpg");

Note:
Because both OptimizedImage and ImageResult objects maintain an internal buffer of the image data, which has been rented from the ArrayPool, you should be sure to Dispose of them so that the buffer is returned to the pool. Both objects implement IDisposable and IAsyncDisposable so that they can be easily wrapped in using blocks or statements.

Saving the optimized or transformed image

You can save both OptimizedImage and ImageResult objects to a file, to a stream, to a buffer or pass in a preallocated buffer and copy the data directly to the buffer

Example

await using var optimizedImage = await client.ShrinkFromFile("unoptimized.jpg");
await using var transformedImage =
    await optimizedImage.TransformImage(new TransformOperations(
        resize: new ResizeOperation(ResizeType.Fit, 50, 20)
    ));
                                    
var optimizedBuffer = await optimizedImage.ToBufferAsync();

// Note the ImageResult object already holds an internal buffer
// with the image data and so will just return a copy synchronously
var transformedBuffer = transformedImage.ToBuffer();

using var msOptimized = new MemoryStream();
await optimizedImage.ToStreamAsync(msOptimized);

using var msTransformed = new MemoryStream();
await transformedImage.ToStreamAsync(msTransformed);

var bufferOptimized = new byte[optimizedImage.ImageSize.Value];
await optimizedImage.CopyToBufferAsync(bufferOptimized);

// Note the ImageResult object already holds an internal buffer
// with the image data and so will just copy the data synchronously
var bufferTransformed = new byte[transformedImage.DataLength];
transformedImage.CopyToBuffer(bufferTransformed);
