Can you show me an example of how to use it in a model?

Sure! Here’s a simple example:

from imagekit.models import ImageSpecField, ProcessedImageField
from django.db import models

class MyModel(models.Model):
    image = ProcessedImageField(upload_to='images/')
    thumbnail = ImageSpecField(source='image',
                               processors=[ResizeToFill(100, 100)],
                               format='JPEG',
                               options={'quality': 60})

You can configure options like format and quality in the ImageSpecField. For example, you can set the format to 'PNG' and adjust the quality percentage.
