Avatar component for Vue.js
npm install vue-avatar
An avatar component for vue.js.
This component display an avatar image and if none is provided fallback to the
user initials. This component is highly inspired from
react-user-avatar.
Rules used to compute user initials:
- divide the username on space and hyphen
- use the first letter of each parts
- never use more than three letters as initials
- if the username is divided in more than three parts and has part
starting with an uppercase, skip parts starting with a lowercase.
