Load images locally and not through CDN about starter-gatsby-blog HOT 4 OPEN

I asked this question on Gatsby discussion but no one answered
gatsbyjs/gatsby#28104

from starter-gatsby-blog.

We do not recommend to work around our CDNs and directly use our Image API. Thats what the gatsby plugin does.

Whats your reason for doing this?

You still can do it: (I assume you use Markdown)

1. First enable downloadLocal in gatsby-source-contentful
2. create a remark plugin similar to https://www.gatsbyjs.com/plugins/gatsby-remark-images-contentful/ that rewrites the image tag src to your local path

Thanks, have you seen an example in the past? I am wondering if anyone has done something similar to this, I dont think I can write a plugin yet :( , I enabled downloadLocal but none of the images are downloaded.

No sorry, I did not write a remark plugin yet :(
