Custom Compiled libvips For HEIC

See original GitHub issue

Following the prior HEIF/HEIC issue https://github.com/lovell/sharp/issues/1105 regarding the need for a custom compiled libvips package I did so.

I’ve used this docker file https://github.com/jcupitt/docker-builds/blob/master/libvips-amazonlinux2/Dockerfile except I’m using lambci/lambda:build-nodejs10.x as a base to have nodejs support.

Installation of libvips goes well and is successful. It finds libheif and references it in the supported formats during install.

Where I’m running into an issue is that when I install sharp I’m missing reference to the libvip lib files.

For anyone coming here looking for a lambda layer: I’ve created one that includes sharp with HEIC/HEIF support: https://github.com/zoellner/sharp-heic-lambda-layer It can be added to any lambda function. See repo for details.

@Projkt-James I’m sorry for the quick dump but I’ve got this up https://github.com/smcguinness/SharpLayer as a getting started. Ultimately, you should be able to run the 2 commands and be off an running - but I’m sure there are lots of enhancements, and maybe even bugs in the docker install.

Ultimately, I’d love to get to a point of these dumping to the Sharp directory to read from, but for now, this has worked for me.
