Identicon implementation is courtesy of Shin Adachi.

Configuration

All configuration options go in the [hackergotchi] section.

providers : optional, default: GravatarHackergotchiProvider, IdenticonHackergotchiProvider

Order to try providers when looking for an image. Any providers enabled but not listed will be tried in a pseudo-random order.

gravatar_default : optional, default: identicon

Value to pass along to Gravatar to use if the email doesn't match anything. Valid values are identicon, monsterid, wavatar, or a URL to an image. In the first three cases, a icon will be procedurally generated.

To enable the plugin:

[components]
hackergotchi.* = enabled

Example

To never use the Gravatar provider:

[hackergotchi]
providers = IdenticonHackergotchiProvider

[components]
