Soshot make webshot of internet page with headless machine.

Ideas

• If webshot exist in desired size, serve them, if not, verif if complete exist, if exist, crop and resize, save and serve
• If webshot not exist get information of page and add in the queue
• Cron job take a webshot of complete page and save them (1920 x complete lenth)
• Crop image and resize desired format (1920x1080, 1280x720, 160x90 ...), save and serve

SoShot always make complete webshot (1920x page lenght) + first demande size.

Size use 16/9 ratio :

• fav = define by config (default 48px)
• og = define by the website himself (no resize or crop)
• thumb = 160x90
• hd = 1280x720
• full = 1920x1080
• complete = 1920xpage height
