(PHP 5 >= 5.4.0, PHP 7)

imagewebp — Output a WebP image to browser or file

### Description

imagewebp ( resource `$image` [, mixed `$to` = `NULL` [, int `$quality` = 80 ]] ) : bool

Outputs or saves a WebP version of the given `image`.

### Parameters

`image`

  An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().

`to`

  The path or an open stream resource (which is automatically being closed after this function returns) to save the file to. If not set or `NULL`, the raw image stream will be outputted directly.

`quality`

  `quality` ranges from 0 (worst quality, smaller file) to 100 (best quality, biggest file).

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure.

Caution

However, if libgd fails to output the image, this function returns `TRUE`.

### Examples

Example #1 Saving an WebP file

`<?php
// Create a blank image and add some text
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(120, 20);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 233, 14, 91);
imagestring($im, 1, 5, 5, 'WebP with PHP', $text_color);
// Save the image
imagewebp($im, 'php.webp');
// Free up memory
imagedestroy($im);
?>`
