using npm
:
npm i gulp-add-missing-postimages
In your gulpfile.js

Options
options.prefix = options.prefix || '';
background
number
Default: 0x00000000
The hex of the background color. By default, this is transparent.
cache
string
Default: undefined
The path to cache the resulting images. If this is undefined, then no cache will be used. If one is there, then if the image exists there, it will be used instead of generating a new one. Likewise, all created images will be placed in the cache.
columns
number
Default: 1
The number of columns to repeat the image.
image
string
Default: data.image
The name of the property (which may have dots) to both determine if the post already has an image (if so, no image will be generated) and to store the resulting relative path of the image once one is created.
padding
number
Default: 0
The number of pixels to place around the tile image (or all the images of multiples are included).
path
string|string[]
Default: path
The name of the property in the file that contains the path of the item. This is used when the path changes relative to other elements. This may go into nested items by using dots (e.g., data.paths.relative
). If multiple path objects are given, then each one will be mapped.
prefix
string
Default: ""
The prefix to place before the generated file name.
rows
number
Default: 1
The number of rows of duplicated images should be included.
size
number
Default: 256
The number of pixels for the resulting square image. If multiples icons are included, then this will only be the individual tiles.
spacing
number
Default: 0
The number of pixels between each image of more than one is included.
title
string
Default: data.title
The name of the property (which may have dots) to find the source text to generate the image from.
extensions
string[]
Deafult: ['.html']
A list of extensions to move into their own directories. Files that don't match the given extension will be ignored.
