An image style for an Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket allows you to efficiently perform multiple image processing operations on images in the bucket. For example, you can define resizing, cropping, rotation, and watermarking operations in an image style and use the style to process intended images in the bucket.
Create an image style
You can create up to 50 image styles for a bucket. You can apply the image styles only to images in the bucket. If you require more image styles for a bucket, contact technical support.
Use the OSS console
Log on to the OSS console.
In the left-side navigation pane, click Buckets. On the Buckets page, find and click the desired bucket.
In the left-side navigation tree, choose Data Processing > IMG.
On the IMG page, click Create Style.
In the Create Style panel, use one of the following methods to configure the style.
Basic Settings: Use a GUI to configure the following parameters that you want to use to process your images.
Section
Parameter
Description
Rule Name
Rule Name
Specify a name for the image style. The name must be 1 to 63 characters in length and can contain only letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).
Image
Format Conversion
Specify the format to which you want to convert the image. If you set Format Conversion to Original Format, the format of the image is not converted.
If you want to convert the format of the image, you can set Format Conversion to one of the following values based on your requirements: jpg, jpeg, png, bmp, gif, webp, and tiff.
Progressive Display
Specify whether to enable progressive display. Progressive display first provides a fuzzy outline of an image and gradually loads the image until the complete image is displayed.
NoteThe progressive display setting takes effect only for JPG images.
Auto Orientation
Specify whether to rotate the image based on the EXIF data of the image before it is resized.
Quality
Specify image quality settings. You can select Relative, Absolute, or Uncompressed.
For more information about image quality, see Adjust image quality.
Resize
Resize Type
Specify the resize type of the image. Valid values: Thumbnail Disabled, Proportional Scale Down, Proportional Scale Up, and Fixed Width and/or Height.
Effects
Brightness
Specify the brightness of the image. You can drag the slider to adjust the brightness.
A value of 0 specifies the same brightness level as the source image. A value smaller than 0 specifies a brightness level lower than that of the source image. A value greater than 0 specifies a brightness level higher than that of the source image.
Contrast
Specify the contrast of the image. You can drag the slider to adjust the contrast.
A value of 0 specifies the same contrast level as the source image. A value smaller than 0 specifies a contrast level lower than that of the source image. A value greater than 0 specifies a contrast level higher than that of the source image.
Sharpen
Specify whether to sharpen the image.
After you turn on Sharpen, you can drag the slider to adjust the sharpness.
Blur
Specify whether to blur the image. After you turn on Blur, you can drag the slider to adjust the blur radius and blur deviation.
Rotate
Drag the slider to adjust the image rotation angle.
Watermark
Watermark
Configure watermarking. You can select No Watermark, Image, or Text for the parameter.
Advanced Settings: Programmatically create an image style in the
image/action1,parame_value1/action2,parame_value2/...
form by using the API operation. For more information about the supported IMG parameters, see IMG parameters.For example,
image/resize,p_63/quality,q_90
resizes an image to 63% of the original size and change the relative quality of the image to 90%.NoteIf you want to add image and text watermarks to an image by using an image style, use Advanced Settings to create an image style.
Click OK.
Use OSS SDKs
Among OSS SDKs for various programming languages, you can use only OSS SDK for Python and OSS SDK for Go to create image styles.
Python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import oss2
from oss2.credentials import EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider
# Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
auth = oss2.ProviderAuth(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider())
# Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com.
# Specify the name of the bucket. Example: examplebucket.
bucket = oss2.Bucket(auth, 'https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com', 'examplebucket')
# Specify the name of the image style, such as imagestyle.
style = 'imagestyle'
# Specify the operation of the image style, such as resizing the image to a width of 200 pixels.
content = 'image/resize,w_200'
# Create an image style.
result = bucket.put_bucket_style(style, content)
print ('Style created. Returned status:' + str(result.status))
Go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/aliyun/aliyun-oss-go-sdk/oss"
"os"
)
func main() {
/// Obtain access credentials from environment variables. Before you run the sample code, make sure that the OSS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and OSS_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET environment variables are configured.
provider, err := oss.NewEnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider()
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
os.Exit(-1)
}
// Create an OSSClient instance.
// Specify the endpoint of the region in which the bucket is located. For example, if the bucket is located in the China (Hangzhou) region, set the endpoint to https://oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com. Specify your actual endpoint.
client, err := oss.New("yourEndpoint", "", "", oss.SetCredentialsProvider(&provider))
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
os.Exit(-1)
}
// Specify the name of the bucket. Example: examplebucket.
bucketName := "examplebucket"
// Specify the operation of the image style, such as resizing the image to a width of 200 pixels.
styleContent := "image/resize,w_200"
// Specify the name of the image style. Example: imagestyle.
styleName := "imagestyle"
err = client.PutBucketStyle(bucketName,styleName,styleData)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
os.Exit(-1)
}
fmt.Println("Bucket Style Set Success!")
}
Use ossutil
You can use ossutil to create an image style. For more information, see style.
Use the OSS API
If your business requires a high level of customization, you can directly call RESTful APIs. To directly call an API, you must include the signature calculation in your code. For more information, see PutStyle.
Usage notes
After you configure an image style for a bucket, you can apply the image style when you process images in the bucket by using image URLs or OSS SDKs.
If you use an image style to process dynamic images such as GIFs, you must add the /format,gif parameter to the image style to make sure that produced images are also dynamic. Otherwise, the produced images may become static images.
Use an image style in URLs for image processing
You can add an image style to the URL of an image object in the following format to process the image: http(s)//:BucketName.Endpoint/ObjectName?x-oss-process=style/<StyleName>
. Example: https://oss-console-img-demo-cn-hangzhou-3az.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/example.jpg?x-oss-process=style/small.
If you specify a custom delimiter, you can simplify the URL for image processing by replacing ?x-oss-process=style/
with the delimiter. For more information about how to specify a custom delimiter, see Protect source images.
For example, if you specify the exclamation mark (!) as the delimiter, the URL format for image processing is simplified as http(s)//:BucketName.Endpoint/ObjectName!StyleName
.
You can also map a custom domain name to the bucket to further simplify the URL. For example, if the custom domain name example.com
is mapped to a bucket, the URL for processing the example.jpg image in the bucket is https://example.com/example.jpg!small
. After you map a custom domain name, you can preview the effect of IMG online. For more information, see Map a custom domain name to the default domain name of a bucket.
Use OSS SDKs
You can encapsulate various IMG parameters within an image style and use the image style to process images by using OSS SDKs. The following sample code provides examples on how to use an image style to process images by using OSS SDKs for common programming languages. For more information about how to use an image style to process images by using OSS SDKs for other programming languages, see Overview.

Import image styles for a source bucket to a destination bucket
You can import image styles that are created for a bucket to a destination bucket. This way, you can use the image styles to process image objects in the destination bucket.
Export image styles from a source bucket.
In the left-side navigation tree of the source bucket, choose Data Processing > IMG.
On the IMG page, select the image styles that you want to export and click Export Style.
Import the image styles to a destination bucket.
In the left-side navigation tree of the destination bucket, choose Data Processing > IMG.
On the IMG page, click Import Style.
In the dialog box that appears, select the image style file and click Open.
After the image style file is imported to the destination bucket, you can use the image styles to process images in the destination bucket.
FAQ
Am I charged for creating an image style?
No, you are not charged for creating an image style. However, using the image style to process images incur applicable image processing fees. For more information about image processing fees, see Billing.
