It’s still early days for the BPG format. So there isn’t much out there yet as far as built in support. The libbgp source includes a Javascript library that decodes the images browser side so that the user’s browser doesn’t need to support the format natively. From the project’s README file:
The Javascript decoder substitutes all the <img> tags with a source having a .bpg extension with a <canvas> tag and decodes the BPG image into it. Stylesheets are supported (the ‘id’ and ‘class’ attributes are preserved). The ‘width’ and ‘height’ attributes are supported only with pixel units.
The image data is downloaded with the XMLHttpRequest object. So the BPG images and the BPG Javascript decoder must be in the same domain unless Cross-Origin Resource Sharing is used.
For the most basic support, you’d simply need to include the Javascript in your templates:
<script type="text/javascript" src="bpgdec.js"></script>
