Read Grab your gear: The official Sanity swag storeHey! This is a known breaking change with Gatsby v3 and the gatsby-source-sanity plugin. The getFluidGatsbyImage and getFixedGatsbyImage helper functions were removed because Gatsby v3 deprecated the old gatsby-image package in favor of the new gatsby-plugin-image.
Here's how to fix your code:
1. Install the new image plugin:
npm install gatsby-plugin-image2. Update your imports and code:
import React from "react"
import { GatsbyImage } from "gatsby-plugin-image"
import { getGatsbyImageData } from "gatsby-source-sanity"
import * as css from "./figure.module.css"
const Figure = ({ node }) => {
const imageData = getGatsbyImageData(
node.image.asset._ref,
{ maxWidth: 1024 },
{
projectId: process.env.SANITY_PROJECT_ID || "bjzgdow4",
dataset: process.env.SANITY_DATASET || "production",
}
)
return (
<figure className={`css.root my-6`}>
<GatsbyImage image={imageData} alt={node.alt} />
{node.caption && (
<figcaption className={css.figcaption}>{node.caption}</figcaption>
)}
</figure>
)
}
export default FigureKey changes:
getFluidGatsbyImage → getGatsbyImageDatagatsby-image → gatsby-plugin-imageImg component → GatsbyImage componentfluid prop → image propThe new getGatsbyImageData helper works similarly but returns data compatible with the modern GatsbyImage component. The gatsby-source-sanity plugin documentation should have more details on the image helper functions available.
This migration is part of Gatsby's move to a more performant image handling system with better lazy loading and modern image formats support. Your images should work even better after this change! 🎉
