Function

Tired of manually entering in alt-text for all of your uploaded images? Finding that content editors are entering in meaningless values for alt-text? Drupal Rekognition now integrates with the Media module included in Drupal 8 core, to suggest alt-text for all images uploaded through Media.

Once an image is uploaded, it will be sent to Amazon Web Services' Rekognition. Once the image is analyzed, the alt-text field will automatically be populated with the following caption format: "Image may contain: ".

This module requires user to have an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account, to get proper authentication keys.

Getting the proper keys: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/rekognition/latest/dg/image-bytes-javascript.html#image-bytes-javascript-auth

The best part? Under AWS Free-Tier plan, if you upload less than 5,000 images per month, it's free!

Future Features

  • Back-port to Drupal 7 core/Media module.
  • Extract text from images that may contain it
  • Encorporate Rekognition's Beta video summarization features
