Managing images

One of the major advantages of using DatoCMS instead of any other content management systems is its responsiveImage query, which will return pre-computed image attributes that will help you setting up responsive images in your frontend without any additional manipulation.

To make it even easier to offer responsive, progressive images on your projects, we offer a package called react-datocms that exposes an <Image /> component and pairs perfectly with the responsiveImage query.

Our solution offers the same advantages of using Next Image component, with the added benefit of having beautiful low-quality image placeholders (LQIP) in base64 format embedded directly within the page, without any additional request to be made by the browser or server:

To take advantage of it, install the react-datocms package:

Terminal window
yarn add react-datocms

Then, inside your page, feed content coming from a responsiveImage query directly into the <Image /> component:

import { request } from "../lib/datocms";
import { Image as DatoImage } from "react-datocms";
const HOMEPAGE_QUERY = `query HomePage($limit: IntType) {
allBlogPosts(first: $limit) {
id
title
coverImage {
responsiveImage(imgixParams: { fit: crop, w: 300, h: 300, auto: format }) {
sizes
src
width
height
alt
title
base64
}
}
}
}`;
export async function getStaticProps() {
const data = await request({
query: HOMEPAGE_QUERY,
variables: { limit: 10 }
});
return {
props: {
data
}
};
}
export default function Home({ data }) {
return (
<div>
{data.allBlogPosts.map(blogPost => (
<article key={blogPost.id}>
<DatoImage data={blogPost.coverImage.responsiveImage} />
<h6>{blogPost.title}</h6>
</article>
))}
</div>
);
}
