With our official Magento 1 module you can easily enhance your Magento application with our easy to use API's.
You can download this repository as a zip archive here and upload the app & lib directories to your Magento application. Once uploaded you'll need to clear the cache.
You can install this module automatically via composer.
Enter the below command into the root of your Magento project (where the composer.json file is located). This will add the VCS for our module and require it automatically.
composer config repositories.deflate vcs https://github.com/deflate/magento1.git && composer require deflate/magento1:"dev-master"
Alternatively you can add the following repository to your composer.json file manually:
{
...
"repositories": [
...
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "https://github.com/deflate/magento1.git"
}
...
]
...
}
Once you've added the repository you can require the deflate/magento1 module.
composer require deflate/magento1:"dev-master"
Once that command is completed you'll need to clear your caches and the module will be enabled!
The module contains a number of configuration options that can be altered through System > Configuration > Deflate - Image Compression. The first step you'll need to take is linking your Deflate account, you can either pull your API key & secret manually from your account or use our account link functionality.
