# images

A growing hand-picked curated collection of beautiful free images from [unsplash.com](https://unsplash.com) that's an easy drop into any Website served from GitHub's CDN.

The [heroes.js](https://github.com/ServiceStack/images/blob/master/heroes.js) module returns different URLs to 2560x1000 [/hero](https://github.com/ServiceStack/images/tree/master/hero) images ideal for usage in hero backgrounds.

> Live Example: [/heroes](https://servicestack.github.io/images/heroes)

# api

The different API's lets you control which hero to get and the frequency it changes:

```js
heroes.random() // a random hero each time
heroes.daily() // the same hero for the day
heroes.hourly() // the same hero for the hour
heroes.static('foo') // the same hero for this string constant
heroes.static('foo',10) // the same hero + 10 for this string constant
heroes.get(1) // the first hero
heroes.get(1000000) // the hero at mod length 1000000

heroes.images // the array of hero image names
heroes.baseUrl //= https://servicestack.github.io/images/
```

# usage

From web page:

```html

document.write(`<img src="${heroes.random()}">`)
```

From a npm-based Web App:

$ npm install @servicestack/images

Import using ES6 modules or TypeScript:

```js
import { heroes } from "@servicestack/images";
```

### React Example

```jsx
const Hero = ;
```

### Vue Example

```html

import { heroes } from "@servicestack/images";

export default {
methods: {
heroes
}
}

```

### dependency-free

As [heroes.js](https://github.com/ServiceStack/images/blob/master/heroes.js) doesn't have any dependencies it can also be copied and used locally:

$ curl https://servicestack.github.io/images/heroes.js -o heroes.js

Where it can be referenced as a relative module:

```js
import heroes from "./heroes";

console.log(heroes.random());
```
