creativeorange/gravatar

A Laravel Gravatar package for retrieving gravatar image URLs or checking the existance of an image

Within your controllers or views, you can use

Gravatar::get('[email protected]');

This will return the URL to the gravatar image of the specified email address. In case of a non-existing gravatar, it will return return a URL to a placeholder image. You can set the type of the placeholder in the configuration option fallback.

Alternatively, you can check for the existence of a gravatar image by using

Gravatar::exists('[email protected]');

This will return a boolean (true or false).

Or you can pass a url to a custom image using the fallback method:

Gravatar::fallback('http://urlto.example.com/avatar.jpg')->get('[email protected]');
