Feature Request: Allow more control over placeholder

[fcisio]

Hi, I love this new version of the SDK so far!
But I do which that we would have more contrôl over the image placeholders.

Examples:

• Control some props for each mode: placeholder('pixelate', [10]), placeholder('blur', [600]), ...
• Control the transition from placeholder to definitive image: fade, speed, delay, ... (currently the image simply blinks)

Hi there,
We support the feature of blur, pixelate for image placeholders. Please check out:

documentation: https://cloudinary.com/documentation/react_image_manipulation#image_placeholders
tutorial: https://cloudinary.com/documentation/advanced_image_components_tutorial

Please let me know if you have further questions.
Thanks,
Mo

Hey, @momoip I'm aware that those are already features, this request is about extending them

Currently, those plugins only accept a string each (SDK v2), my suggestion would be to add a second argument Array which could be passed to the placeholder actions.

This array would make it possible to control the level of pixelation, blur, vectorization, ...

---

This could also open the door to custom placeholders by exposing the image var

placeholder('custom', [(image) => image.effect(cartoonify())])

Hi fcisio,
Thanks for the clarifications. I will consult our team to see if it's on our roadmap. If not, I can create a feature request for this.
Cheers,
