GitHubesque identicon generator.

Project description

PyPI version

ghicon

ghicon is a GitHubesque identicon generator. It uses seed text and a hashing function, MD5 by default, to create unique images called identicons.

Usage

Install ghicon using,

pip install ghicon==5.2.0

Then use the generate function,

import ghicon

image = ghicon.generate("agzg")
image.save("agzg.png")

Note: Following v5.2.0, you can supply and use custom hashing functions for generating identicons. Ensure the function you use only accepts a string and returns a hex-compatible hash which is more than 15 characters.

Tip: You can also invert the colours of the identicon to mix things up! Use the invert argument to do so.
