Overview

This example demonstrates how to use Trigger.dev to generate images from source image URLs using Replicate, the nano-banana-image-to-image model.

​
Task code

trigger/generateImage.tsx
import { PutObjectCommand, S3Client } from "@aws-sdk/client-s3";
import { task, wait } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";
import Replicate, { Prediction } from "replicate";

// Initialize clients
const replicate = new Replicate({
  auth: process.env.REPLICATE_API_TOKEN,
});

const s3Client = new S3Client({
  region: "auto",
  endpoint: process.env.R2_ENDPOINT,
  credentials: {
    accessKeyId: process.env.R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID ?? "",
    secretAccessKey: process.env.R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY ?? "",
  },
});

const model = "google/nano-banana";

export const generateImageAndUploadToR2 = task({
  id: "generate-image-and-upload-to-r2",
  run: async (payload: { prompt: string; imageUrl: string }) => {
    const { prompt, imageUrl } = payload;

    const token = await wait.createToken({
      timeout: "10m",
    });

    // Use Flux with structured prompt
    const output = await replicate.predictions.create({
      model: model,
      input: { prompt, image_input: [imageUrl] },
      // pass the provided URL to Replicate's webhook, so they can "callback"
      webhook: token.url,
      webhook_events_filter: ["completed"],
    });

    const result = await wait.forToken<Prediction>(token).unwrap();
    // unwrap() throws a timeout error or returns the result 👆

    if (!result.ok) {
      throw new Error("Failed to create prediction");
    }

    const generatedImageUrl = result.output.output;

    const image = await fetch(generatedImageUrl);
    const imageBuffer = Buffer.from(await image.arrayBuffer());

    const base64Image = Buffer.from(imageBuffer).toString("base64");

    const timestamp = Date.now();
    const filename = `generated-${timestamp}.png`;

    // Generate unique key for R2
    const sanitizedFileName = filename.replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9.-]/g, "_");
    const r2Key = `uploaded-images/${timestamp}-${sanitizedFileName}`;

    const uploadParams = {
      Bucket: process.env.R2_BUCKET,
      Key: r2Key,
      Body: imageBuffer,
      ContentType: "image/png",
      // Add cache control for better performance
      CacheControl: "public, max-age=31536000", // 1 year
    };

    const uploadResult = await s3Client.send(new PutObjectCommand(uploadParams));

    // Construct the public URL using the R2_PUBLIC_URL env var
    const publicUrl = `${process.env.R2_PUBLIC_URL}/${r2Key}`;

    return {
      success: true,
      publicUrl,
      originalPrompt: prompt,
      sourceImageUrl: imageUrl,
    };
  },
});
