web-friendly /uploadbyurl endpoint

[sglkc]

I want to make a web-compatible function that doesn't use any image processing (sharp) and node exclusive package (undici)

Usage is the same like current implementation, but instead it uses the url parameter
https://lens.google.com/uploadbyurl?url=https%3A%2F%2Flune.dimden.dev%2F7949f833fa42.png

If you wouldn't implement it here then I'd happily make a separate package, if it's good with you

[dimdenGD]

There's already LensCore file that doesn't have that, read documentation

[sglkc]

my use case is for faster batch processing by directly using image urls, letting google handle the rest so the package doesn't have to fetch images, analyze its dimensions, getting its mime type, and uploading it to google

[dimdenGD]

Oh, currently I don't have plans to add that but it'd be a good addition as a new function (or to replace current scanByURL one). So if you'll make a PR I'll merge it

[sglkc]

since dimensions aren't known and image isn't fetched, how would one handle imageDimensions parameter for BoundingBox, Segment, LensCore.parseResult, and LensCore.fetch?
though it's possible to default to 0 and it'll only make BoundingBox pixelCoords values 0

[dimdenGD]

I assume you should just make it so pixelCoords doesn't exist when using scanbyurl and document that
