ability to pass loadImage starting image path through URL parameters

[tech4GT]

Maybe we can do something like #steps=loadImage(url:"pathToImage"),invert().....

@jywarren I would love to hear your thoughts ons this, like this a particular sequence on a particular image can also be shared through the url

GitMate.io thinks the contributor most likely able to help you is @jywarren.

Possibly related issues are #234 (Ability to identify image type without URL filetype), and #5 (image cropping module).

Yes this is a perfect use of the string format!!!!

[tech4GT]

@jywarren let's add this to core work milestone!!

[jywarren]

Great. I think this could be done as part of importimage, if we figure out how to use that module as the starting module, maybe? Importimage accepts a url parameters.

@jywarren Yeah that sounds reasonable!!

In importImage -- https://publiclab.github.io/image-sequencer/examples/#steps=import-image(url:https://publiclab.org/i/25043.jpg),blend,ndvi,colormap this doesn't seem to be working, although basic parameters DO get pulled in -- not sure why!

https://publiclab.github.io/image-sequencer/examples/#steps=ndvi(filter:blue),colormap(colormap:fastie) does work, for example!

[jywarren]

Perhaps we should also offer a few more example images in a dropdown -- this could be a follow-up issue to this one!

@jywarren the bug lies in importImage I'll fix that no prblem
