`failOnError` option if you don’t want to fail the entire build if one image has an error.

Default to true.

Via the image transform maybe an eleventy:optional attribute that will remove remote images that fail.

The impetus use case here is build-time opencollective avatar images on 11ty.dev

This has been important for a project with many old image references pointing out to external sites. eleventy-img handles 404s pretty gracefully, but on occasion encounters references to domains that won't even resolve — bringing the whole build down. Being able to sidestep that issue and proceed with the build with be a huge benefit.

Is it possible to do this yet? I am moving some sites to 11ty, and would be great if they were able to build without having to fix the 404 images first. Could it fail with a notice instead? I am using the imageTransformPlugin:

 // Automatically improve images
  eleventyConfig.addPlugin(eleventyImageTransformPlugin, {
    // which file extensions to process
    extensions: 'html',
    // optional, output image formats
    formats: ['jpg', 'png', 'webp'],
    // optional, output image widths
    widths: ['auto', 400, 800],
    // optional, attributes assigned on <img> override these values.
    defaultAttributes: {
      loading: 'lazy',
      sizes: '100vw',
      decoding: 'async',
    },
  });

But it fails hard on 404 images:
