composer require yzalis/identicon

Usage

Images are generated in PNG format with transparent background.

The string can be an email, an IP address, a username, an ID or something else.

Generate an identicon

Create a new Identicon object.

$identicon = new \Identicon\Identicon();

Then you can generate and display an identicon image

$identicon->displayImage('foo');

or generate and get the image data

$imageData = $identicon->getImageData('bar');

or generate and get the base 64 image uri ready for integrate into an HTML img tag.

$imageDataUri = $identicon->getImageDataUri('bar');
<img src="<?php echo $imageDataUri; ?>" alt="bar Identicon" />

Change the size

By default the size will be 64 pixels. If you want to change the image size just add a secondary parameter. 512 x 512px in this example.

$identicon->displayImage('foo', 512);

Color

The color is automatically generated according to the string hash but you can chose to specify a color by adding a third argument.

Color can be an hexadecimal with 6 characters

$identicon->displayImage('bar', 64, 'A87EDF');

or an array with red, green, blue value

$identicon->displayImage('foo', 64, array(200, 100, 150));

That's it!
