Letter avatar generation for Go

letteravatar

GoDoc Build Status

Letter avatar generation for Go.

Usage

Generate a 100x100px 'A'-letter avatar:

img, err := letteravatar.Draw(100, 'A', nil)

The third parameter options *Options can be used for customization:

type Options struct {
	Font        *truetype.Font
	Palette     []color.Color
	LetterColor color.Color
	PaletteKey  string
}

Using a custom palette:

img, err := letteravatar.Draw(100, 'A', &letteravatar.Options{
	Palette: []color.Color{
		color.RGBA{255, 0, 0, 255},
		color.RGBA{0, 255, 0, 255},
		color.RGBA{0, 0, 255, 255},
	},
})
