Installation

Make sure Composer is installed globally, as explained in the installation chapter of the Composer documentation.

Applications that use Symfony Flex

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute:

$ composer require mluex/gravatar-bundle

Applications that don't use Symfony Flex

Step 1: Download the Bundle

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute the following command to download the latest stable version of this bundle:

$ composer require mluex/gravatar-bundle

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

Then, enable the bundle by adding it to the list of registered bundles in the config/bundles.php file of your project:

// config/bundles.php

return [
    // ...
    Mluex\GravatarBundle\MluexGravatarBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

Step 3: Configure Bundle

If you always have some default for your gravatars such as size, rating or default it can be configured in your config

# config/packages/mluex_gravatar.yml
mluex_gravatar:
  rating: g
  size: 80
  default: mm

Usage

All you have to do is use the helper like this example:

<img src="<?php echo $view['gravatar']->getUrl('[email protected]') ?>" />

Or with parameters:

<img src="<?php echo $view['gravatar']->getUrl('[email protected]', '80', 'g', 'defaultimage.png', true) ?>" />

The only required parameter is the email adress. The rest have default values.

If you use twig you can use the helper like this example:

<img src="{{ gravatar('[email protected]') }}" />

Or if you want to check if a gravatar email exists:

{% if gravatar_exists('[email protected]') %}
  The email is an gravatar email
{% endif %}

Or with parameters:

<img src="{{ gravatar('[email protected]', size, rating, default, secure) }}" />
