ImageSharp–Image.Load() Compiler error after updating

On one of my pet projects I’m using ImageSharp to manipulate images. It is a great library that comes with a lot of features in it. And performance and memory usage is good which is quite important when manipulating images. 

Remark: Be aware that a commercial license is needed in some conditions. So check out the pricing page before adding this library to your application.

I decided to add some new stuff but before I did that I updated the library to the latest version. However after doing that my original code no longer compiled. Let’s see how we can fix this…

Here is the original code:

This specific overload no longer exists in the latest version. So I started to update my code to a supported overload:

Remark: Notice that I also switched to an async overload but know that a synchronous version exists as well.

However by doing that I no longer had the format information available. The good news is that this information could now be accessed through the image.Metadata property:

The compiler was happy again and I as well as I  could continue coding.

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...
