vue-avatar-or-initials

Avatar or Initials

Displays either the initials or the image for an avatar.

Usage

import AvatarOrInitials from 'vue-avatar-or-initials'

Include it in the template you'd like to use it in.

Title is the only required property, size, round and image are optional.

Size defaults to 40px.

Round defaults to false (square avatar).

Basic

This will result in a 40px square avatar with the letter E

<avatar-or-initials class="item-avatar"
                    title="Example">
</avatar-or-initials>

Advanced

This will display an image in a 46px round avatar

<avatar-or-initials class="item-avatar"
                    round
                    size="46"
                    image="https://example.com/example.jpeg"
                    title="Example">
</avatar-or-initials>

Details

It uses the hash of the title to derive a number that it uses to select an entry from an array of colours when there is no image. It does this to consistently provide the same colour for a given title.

It does contrast detection to determine whether or not it should show the initial in light or dark font.

Roadmap

• - Configure own colours
• - Configuree own font
• - More efficient selection algo (needs md5.js atm, would be nice to not have that dependency)
