DenoDeno

Generate a unique OG image for every page, or any on-demand graphic, from a single Imejis template. The pattern below uses a Deno.serve handler as a thin proxy: your API key stays on the server, and the browser (and social crawlers) only ever see your own URL.

Set two environment variables first: IMEJIS_API_KEY (from your dashboard) and IMEJIS_DESIGN_ID (any design's ID).

.env

IMEJIS_API_KEY=your_api_key
IMEJIS_DESIGN_ID=your_design_id

1 a handler that renders the image1. A handler that renders the image

This handler takes a title query param, POSTs it to Imejis as a component.property override, and returns the finished image. Reading the key with Deno.env.get keeps it server-side, so it never reaches the client.

server.ts

Deno.serve(async (req) => {
  const url = new URL(req.url)
  if (url.pathname !== "/og") return new Response("Not found", { status: 404 })
 
  const title = url.searchParams.get("title") ?? "Untitled"
 
  const res = await fetch(
    `https://render.imejis.io/v1/${Deno.env.get("IMEJIS_DESIGN_ID")}`,
    {
      method: "POST",
      headers: {
        "dma-api-key": Deno.env.get("IMEJIS_API_KEY")!,
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ "headline.text": title }),
    }
  )
 
  return new Response(res.body, {
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "image/jpeg",
      // Renders are deterministic, so cache aggressively at the edge/CDN.
      "Cache-Control": "public, immutable, no-transform, max-age=31536000",
    },
  })
})

Run it with deno run --allow-net --allow-env server.ts.

2 point your metadata at it2. Point your metadata at it

Reference the handler from your HTML <head>, passing each page's real data. Social platforms fetch /og?title=… from your own domain, no key exposed.

Page head

<meta
  property="og:image"
  content="https://your-site.com/og?title=Hello%20world"
/>
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />
<meta
  name="twitter:image"
  content="https://your-site.com/og?title=Hello%20world"
/>

Override any field. Each dynamic component exposes keys like headline.text, title.color, or image.image. Send only the ones you want to change. A design's overridable fields are listed in its Share / API panel.
