Image filter

The Image filter plugin adds filter information to the file in the form of a Color Matrix.

The Image preview plugin uses this information to show the correct preview. The Image transform plugin uses this information to transform the image before uploading it to the server.

Installation

Using npm

npm i filepond-plugin-image-filter --save

Now we can add the Image Filter plugin to our project like this.

// Import FilePond
import * as FilePond from 'filepond';

// Import the plugin code

// Register the plugin
FilePond.registerPlugin(FilePondPluginImageFilter);
