CF-Incidents Cloudflare Images - New in Images: text rasterization and updates to the binding

[ENF News Bot]

We've added more ways to manage and manipulate images with the Images binding. Here's what's new:

Render text into an image. Output a string of text into its own image or draw it over another image.

• Use the .text() method to rasterize text with the Images binding.
• Style content using the font, size, and color options.
• The draw array in cf.image now accepts a text key.

Manage hosted images without an API token.

• Metadata filtering: Pass filter.metadata to .list() to return images by custom metadata. Match a bounded range by setting two operators in one condition, for example, priority: { gte: 2, lte: 5 }.
• Server-side signing: Get a signed URL for a private image with .signedUrl().
• User uploads: Create a Direct Creator Upload link with .createDirectUpload() so that a client can upload an image to your storage.

Set headers in a single call.

• Pass a headers option to .response() to set headers without rebuilding the Response.
• Content-Type is always taken from the optimized image and can't be overridden by a specified header.
• Set Cache-Control with Workers Cache to cache your optimized image at the edge.

For more information, refer to Optimize with Workers, Draw overlays and watermarks, and Manage hosted images with Workers.
