This plugin integrates Cloudinary with Craft CMS. Assets can be uploaded from Craft's control panel and then transformed and delivered by Cloudinary, even if stored in a different filesystem. The plugin is compatible with your existing Craft template code and named image transforms.

Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 4.4.0 or later, and PHP 8.0.2 or later.

Installation

You can install this plugin from the Plugin Store or with Composer.

From the Plugin Store

Go to the Plugin Store in your project’s Control Panel and search for “Cloudinary”. Then press “Install”.

With Composer

Open your terminal and run the following commands:

# go to the project directory
cd /path/to/my-project.test

# tell Composer to load the plugin
composer require thomasvantuycom/craft-cloudinary

# tell Craft to install the plugin
./craft plugin/install cloudinary

Setup

The plugin adds a Cloudinary filesystem type to Craft. It can be used solely as a transform filesystem or as a storage filesystem as well.

To create a new Cloudinary filesystem to use with your volumes, visit Settings → Filesystems, and press New filesystem. Select “Cloudinary” for the Filesystem Type setting and configure as needed. If you'd like to store assets in Cloudinary and deliver them without any transformations, make sure to toggle Files in this filesystem have public URLs and to set the Base URL to “https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/”, replacing “demo” with your own Cloudinary cloud name.

To start using the filesystem, visit Settings → Assets → Volumes. Here you can create a new volume using the Cloudinary filesystem for both storage and transforms, or add the Cloudinary filesystem to any existing volumes for transforms only. In the latter case, any assets with public URLs from any local or remote filesystem are transformed by Cloudinary using the fetch feature. This may not work in local development setups.

Image Transformations

The plugin supports all of Craft's native transform options. These can be found under Settings → Assets → Image Transforms.

In addition, you can incorporate any of Cloudinary's transformation options in the transforms you define in your templates, like so:

{% set thumb = {
  width: 100,
  height: 100,
  quality: 75,
  opacity: 33,
  border: '5px_solid_rgb:999',
} %}

<img src="{{ asset.getUrl(thumb) }}">

Transformation options should be in camelCase, meaning aspect_ratio becomes aspectRatio, or fetch_format becomes fetchFormat.
