SYNOPSIS

    use Libravatar::URL;

    my $url = libravatar_url( email => '[email protected]' );

DESCRIPTION

See <http://www.libravatar.org> for more information.

Functions

libravatar_url

# By email my $url = libravatar_url( email => $email, %options );

# By OpenID my $url = libravatar_url( openid => $openid, %options );

Constructs a \s-1URL\s0 to fetch the Libravatar for the given $email address or $openid \s-1URL\s0.

%options are optional. \*(C`libravatar_url\*(C' will accept all the options of \*(L"gravatar_url\*(R" in Gravatar::URL except for \*(C`rating\*(C' and \*(C`border\*(C'.

The available options are...

size

Specifies the desired width and height of the avatar (they are square).

Valid values are from 1 to 512 inclusive. Any size other than 80 may cause the original image to be downsampled using bicubic resampling before output.

size => 40, # 40 x 40 image

default

The url to use if the user has no avatar.

default => "http://www.example.org/nobody.jpg"

Relative URLs will be relative to the base (ie. libravatar.org), not your web site.

Libravatar defines special values that you may use as a default to produce dynamic default images. These are \*(L"identicon\*(R", \*(L"monsterid\*(R", \*(L"wavatar\*(R" and \*(L"retro\*(R". \*(L"404\*(R" will cause the \s-1URL\s0 to return an \s-1HTTP\s0 404 \*(L"Not Found\*(R" error instead and \*(L"mm\*(R" will display the same \*(L"mystery man\*(R" image for everybody. See <http://www.libravatar.org/api> for more info.

If omitted, Libravatar will serve up their default image, the orange butterfly.

base

This is the \s-1URL\s0 of the location of the Libravatar server you wish to grab avatars from. Defaults to <http://cdn.libravatar.org/avatar/> for \s-1HTTP\s0 and <https://seccdn.libravatar.org/avatar/> for \s-1HTTPS\s0.

short_keys

If true, use short key names when constructing the \s-1URL\s0. \*(L"s\*(R" instead of \*(L"size\*(R", \*(L"d\*(R" instead of \*(L"default\*(R" and so on.

short_keys defaults to true.

https

If true, serve avatars over \s-1HTTPS\s0 instead of \s-1HTTP\s0.

You should select this option if your site is served over \s-1HTTPS\s0 to avoid browser warnings about the presence of insecure content.

https defaults to false.
