### Linux/MacOS

```bash
sudo pip3 install dj-gravatar
```
If you are in a virtual environment, type
```bash
pip install dj-gravatar
```
If you do not have `pip`, then download the package from [here][GitHub zip], unzip it and keep it in your Django project's root directory (as an app).

## Usage
Suppose the directory structure of your project is like this.
```bash
Django_Project
â”‚   db.sqlite3
â”‚   manage.py
â”‚
â”œâ”€â”€â”€pages
â”‚   â”‚   admin.py
â”‚   â”‚   apps.py
â”‚   â”‚   models.py
â”‚   â”‚   tests.py
â”‚   â”‚   urls.py
â”‚   â”‚   views.py
â”‚   â”‚   __init__.py
â”‚   â””â”€â”€â”€templates
â”‚       â”‚   base.html
â”‚       â”‚
â”‚       â””â”€â”€â”€pages
â”‚               about.html
â”‚               index.html
â”‚
â””â”€â”€â”€Django_Project
        asgi.py
        settings.py
        urls.py
        wsgi.py
        __init__.py

```
In `Django_Project/settings.py`,
```python
...
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'dj_gravatar'   # NOTE: underscore(_) is used instead of hyphen(-)
    ...
]
...
```
In the Django Template (`.html` file) where you want to show the gravatar,
```html
{% load gravatar %}
...

<img src="{% gravatar_url 'email@mail.com' 200 %}" alt="profile-pic">
...
```
The above code outputs like this:
```html
<img src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/267f3587edc9b64d8e80ee7eca8abbcb?s=200&d=" alt="profile-pic">
<!-- OR -->
<img src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/[hash]?s=200&d=" alt="profile-pic">
```
The argument `s=200` represents the size of the image (`size=200px`). Default size is 80px.

You can also use the following snippet to achieve the same as above:
```html
{% load gravatar %}
...
{% gravatar 'email@mail' 200 "alt='profile-pic'" %}
...
```
You can use any HTML attribute instead of `alt`, like `style`. But only use one optional attribute at a time, Otherwise you will get `TemplateSyntaxError`.

If you want to use `https://.../` instead of the default `http://.../`, then add the following setting in your `settings.py` file.
```python
GRAVATAR_SECURE = True  # Default False
```
If any email address has no matching Gravatar image, then, a default image is shown. There are the following types of default images:
* **404:** do not load any image if none is associated with the email hash, instead return an HTTP 404 (File Not Found) response
* **mp:** (mystery-person) a simple, cartoon-style silhouetted outline of a person (does not vary by email hash)
* **identicon:** a geometric pattern based on an email hash
* **monsterid:** a generated 'monster' with different colors, faces, etc
* **wavatar:** generated faces with differing features and backgrounds
* **retro:** awesome generated, 8-bit arcade-style pixelated faces
* **robohash:** a generated robot with different colors, faces, etc
* **blank:** a transparent PNG image (border added to HTML below for demonstration purposes)

You can [see here][Gravatar Default Image] how each type of default image looks like.

To show a particular default image out of the above, add the following setting to your `settings.py` file.
```python
GRAVATAR_DEFAULT_URL = 'identicon'  # Choose any one of the above
```
