== Gravatar Plugin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This plugin provides a handful of view helpers for displaying gravatars
|
||
|
|
(globally-recognized avatars).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Gravatars allow users to configure an avatar to go with their email address at
|
||
|
|
a central location: http://gravatar.com. Gravatar-aware websites (such
|
||
|
|
as yours) can then look up and display each user's preferred avatar, without
|
||
|
|
having to handle avatar management. The user gets the benefit of not having to
|
||
|
|
set up an avatar for each site that they post on.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd ~/myapp
|
||
|
|
ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/gravatarplugin/plugins/gravatar
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or, if you're using piston[http://piston.rubyforge.org] (worth it!):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cd ~/myapp/vendor/plugins
|
||
|
|
piston import svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/gravatarplugin/plugins/gravatar
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you represent your users with a model that has an +email+ method (typical
|
||
|
|
for most rails authentication setups), then you can simply use this method
|
||
|
|
in your views:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<%= gravatar_for @user %>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will be replaced with the full HTML +img+ tag necessary for displaying
|
||
|
|
that user's gravatar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other helpers are documented under GravatarHelper::PublicMethods.
