Core Image Component - Adaptive Servlet

Question

Hi,I have a basic question on Responsive Feature provided with Core Image Component.  When the size of screen changes the soruce of image also changes accoridngly with respect to the width defined in template design for image componentExample:<img class="cmp-image__image" itemprop="contentUrl" data-cmp-hook-image="image" alt="" src="/content/we-retail/language-masters/en/products/equipment/_jcr_content/root/responsivegrid/image.coreimg.82.300.png/1595274233631/wknd-logo-dk.png"> My Doubt isa) was the servlet everytime fectching the original image component and applies the width Size thereby compressing and displaying itorb) Is the adaptive servlet picking up image from different rendition of the available image based on nearly matching width?  I know the ACS Commons Named Image Servlet picks up original image and applies different sizing/cropping etc on top of that at run time is the Adaptive Servlet works same way? Please suggest

Hi @rajashankar

Wcm Core Image Component works in the similar way acs commons one. If you look at the image page path :

This basically calls the Core Adaptive Servlet which depending upon the factory OSGI configuration ""AEM Core WCM Components Adaptive Image Servlet Mapping Configuration"" and for "coreimg" selector applies different rules for transformation.

You can refer https://helpx.adobe.com/in/experience-manager/6-3/sites/developing/using/responsive.html#UnderstandingtheAdaptiveImageComponentServlet and https://github.com/adobe/aem-core-wcm-components/wiki/the-adaptive-image-servlet to read more on how adaptive servlet works and how can you define different transformation configuration.

Hope it helps!

Thanks!
