Controling where logs are output to

You can output each log to a file by specifying the path in access_log_path/error_log_path/debug_log_path. If you want to output logs to standard output, specify /dev/stdout.

Using WebP and Limitations

You can get WebP image format with GET parameter webp=true requeest.

Examples:

• JPG image URL:
  • http://localhost:8080/abc.jpg?h=400&w=400&quality=80
• WebP encoded image URL:
  • http://localhost:8080/abc.jpg?h=400&w=400&quality=80&webp=true

fanlin returns lossless WebP image in following conditions.

• GET parameter quality=100 AND source image format is PNG / GIF / WebP

Limitations

• Do not support animations

Server-Timing Support

Add "use_server_timing": true at Global parameters in config file. You will get Server-Timing output. Be careful, your system architecture or perfomance will be exposed to enduser with Server-Timing output.

fanlin outputs following timings:

• f_load: The time for load source image.
• f_decode: The time for decode and format source image.
• f_encode: The time for encode to final image format.
