< p > Images are separate files and as such just embedded into HTML files. However
very often you want to perform modifications on these images that require
interacting with those files directly. This can be conveniently done directly
from the template code through the image APIs that Lektor provides.< / p >
< h2 id = "accessing-images" > Accessing Images< / h2 > < p > To work with images one needs to get access to the image objects first. Images
are returned from the attachments of a page. If you want to make sure you
only operate with actual images the < code > .images< / code > attribute can be used to filter
the query. For instance this iterates over all attached images of a page:< / p >

< h2 id = "accessing-image-data" > Accessing Image Data< / h2 > < p > One of the more common operations is to access the direct image data. This
is resolution and file format. The < code > width< / code > , < code > height< / code > and < code > format< / code > parameters
are provided for this. In some cases this is very useful to generate CSS code
that needs to know about the original resolution. For instance this achieves a

< h2 id = "generating-thumbnails" > Generating Thumbnails< / h2 > < p > While browsers are reasonably good at downscaling images themselves, you
still need to transmit the entire image. When you want smaller images it
often makes sense to generate thumbnails automatically. In Lektor each
image provides the < a href = "../../api/db/record/thumbnail/" class = "ref" > thumbnail< / a > method.< / p >
< p > It accepts the width and height of the target image. If either of these is not
provided, it will be computed automatically. The return value can be converted
into a URL with the < code > |url< / code > filter:< / p >
