Current version: 0.4.0

This library has some inspiration from the eefret/gravatar Go library and the node-gravatar Node.js library.

Just like any other Go package, you can install this baby with go get ...

go get github.com/Ascendings/gravago

Now for the fun stuff... the meat! Seriously, though, this package isn't designed to be too difficult to use in a web application - just create a new instance, fiddle some options, then generate your URL!

For example:

// of course we need to import this package
import "github.com/Ascendings/gravago"

// create a new instance
grav := gravago.New(gravago.GravatarOptions{
  ForceHTTPS: true,
  IconSet: "mosterid",
  IconRating: "x",
  IconSize: 80,
})

// change some options later on...
grav.SetSize(80) // set the icon size to 80
grav.SetIcons("monsterid") // use monsterid default icons
grav.SetRating("x") // allow x-rated icons
grav.UseHTTPS(true) // force HTTPS

// generate URL
gravURL := grav.URL("[email protected]")
