Image file formats
==================
Using the picture element
-------------------------
The `picture element <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/picture>`_
can be used with the ``format-<type>`` image operation to specify different
image formats and let the browser choose the one it prefers. For example:
.. code-block:: python
{% load wagtailimages_tags %}
<picture>
{% image myimage width-1000 format-webp as image_webp %}
<source srcset="{{ image_webp.url }}" type="image/webp">
{% image myimage width-1000 format-png as image_png %}
<source srcset="{{ image_png.url }}" type="image/png">
{{ image_png }}
</picture>
Customizing output formats
--------------------------
By default all ``bmp`` and ``webp`` images are converted to the ``png`` format
when no image output format is given.
The default conversion mapping can be changed by setting the
``WAGTAILIMAGES_FORMAT_CONVERSIONS`` to a dictionary which maps the input type
to an output type.
For example:
.. code-block:: python
WAGTAILIMAGES_FORMAT_CONVERSIONS = {
'bmp': 'jpeg',
'webp': 'webp',
}
will convert ``bmp`` images to ``jpeg`` and disable the default ``webp``
to ``png`` conversion.
