Identicon for Elixir

Identicon is a Hex package that can be used to generate Identicons, a form of avatar, like the ones on GitHub.

To generate a new Identicon:

Identicon.main("elixir")

This will generate a new Identicon with the filename "elixir.png" within your root directory. "elixir" can be replaced with any string, often times usernames or first names are used to generate the needed hash-value for the unique Identicon.

 

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed by adding identicon to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [{:identicon, "~> 0.1.0"}]
end

Documentation can be generated with ExDoc and published on HexDocs. Once published, the docs can be found at https://hexdocs.pm/identicon.
