PlaceholderAvatars

Simply display a list of placeholder avatars within your rails app.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'placeholder_avatars'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install placeholder_avatars

Configuration

This gem depends on the Twitter gem and assumes that you've configured your oauth credentials already. For example:

Twitter.configure do |config|
    config.consumer_key = "CONSUMER KEY"
	config.consumer_secret = "CONSUMER SECRET"
	config.oauth_token = "OAUTH TOKEN"
	config.oauth_token_secret = "OAUTH SECRET"
end

Usage

By default PlaceholderAvatars will grab 100 twitter avatars that come from the search result: good.

<% PlaceholderAvatars.fetch.each do |avatar| %>
  <%= image_tag(avatar) %>
<% end %>

To override the number of avatars (<=100) or the keyword:

<% PlaceholderAvatars.fetch("evil", 50).each do |avatar| %>
  <%= image_tag(avatar) %>
<% end %>
