# Plugin Image Generation

A plugin designed for generating and managing images, providing features like image manipulation, storage integration, and optimized handling for various use cases.

## Overview

The Plugin Image Generation offers developers tools to handle image-related operations seamlessly. It supports image creation, manipulation, and integration with storage solutions, making it ideal for applications requiring dynamic image generation.

### Features

- Dynamic image generation
- Integration with storage solutions
- Optimized handling for high-resolution images

## Installation Instructions

To install the plugin, use the following command:

```bash
bun install plugin-image-generation
```

## Configuration Requirements

### Environment Variables

Ensure the following environment variables are set:

| Variable Name          | Description                         |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
| `IMAGE_STORAGE_BUCKET` | Name of the storage bucket.         |
| `STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY`   | Access key for storage integration. |
| `STORAGE_SECRET_KEY`   | Secret key for storage integration. |

### TypeScript Configuration

The plugin assumes a TypeScript environment. Ensure your `tsconfig.json` includes the necessary compiler options:

```json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "ESNext",
    "target": "ES6",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "strict": true
  }
}
```

## Usage Examples

### Generate an Image

The main functionality allows generating an image dynamically.

```typescript
import { generateImage } from 'plugin-image-generation';

const image = await generateImage({
  width: 800,
  height: 600,
  backgroundColor: '#ffffff',
  text: 'Hello World',
  font: 'Arial',
});

console.log('Generated Image:', image);
```

### Upload to Storage

The plugin supports direct integration with storage solutions for uploading images.

```typescript
import { uploadImage } from 'plugin-image-generation';

const uploadResult = await uploadImage({
  imagePath: 'path/to/image.png',
  bucketName: 'my-storage-bucket',
});

console.log('Image uploaded successfully:', uploadResult);
```

## API Reference
