ImageResizer AzureBlobCache

This is ImageResizer EpiServer plugin which stores resized images in Azure Blob Storage so consequent request for the same file does not trigger actual resize.

It covers the same functionality as DiskCache plugin, which is a paid one.

Installation

It is available as nuget package

Configuration

Assuming you have your ImageResizer setup properly you only need to edit web.config and add one entry:

<resizer>
    <plugins>
      (...)
      <add name="Forte.ImageResizer.AzureBlobCache.AzureBlobCachePlugin" />
    </plugins>
    <!-- 
    There are two options to configure AzureBlobStorage connection:
    1. Most probably you already have your Azure Blob Storage connection 
    string somewhere so you may just pass its name in connectionStringName
    <azureBlobCache connectionStringName="EPiServerAzureBlobs"></azureBlobCache>
    
    2. If you don't have connection string defined elsewhere, you may 
    pass it in connectionString attribute 
    <azureBlobCache connectionString="YourConnectionString"></azureBlobCache>
    -->   
    <azureBlobCache connectionStringName="EPiServerAzureBlobs"></azureBlobCache>
 </resizer>

Unit tests

If you wish to run unit tests provided by this package you need to setup your own Azure Blob Storage account and edit App.config file and replace #{TestAzureBlobStorageConnectionString}# with your own connection string.
