Primer CSS Avatars
Avatars are images that users can set as their profile picture. On GitHub, they’re always going to be rounded squares. They can be custom photos, uploaded by users, or generated as Identicons as a placeholder.
This repository is a module of the full primer-css repository.
Install
This repository is distributed with npm. After installing npm, you can install primer-avatars
with this command.
$ npm install --save primer-avatars
Usage
The source files included are written in Sass (scss
) You can simply point your sass include-path
at your node_modules
directory and import it like this.
@import "primer-avatars/index.scss";
You can also import specific portions of the module by importing those partials from the /lib/
folder. Make sure you import any requirements along with the modules.
Build
For a compiled css version of this module, a npm script is included that will output a css version to build/build.css
The built css file is also included in the npm package.
$ npm run build
Documentation
Avatars are images that users can set as their profile picture. On GitHub, they're always going to be rounded squares. They can be custom photos, uploaded by users, or generated as Identicons as a placeholder.
{:toc}
Basic example
Add .avatar
to any <img>
element to make it an avatar. This resets some key styles for alignment, address a Firefox image placeholder bug, and rounds the corners.
Be sure to set width
and height
attributes for maximum browser performance.
<img class="avatar" alt="jonrohan" src="/jonrohan.png?v=3&s=144" width="72" height="72">
Small avatars
We occasionally use smaller avatars. Anything less than 48px
wide should include the .avatar-small
modifier class to reset the border-radius
to a more appropriate level.
<img class="avatar avatar-small" alt="jonrohan" src="/jonrohan.png?v=3&s=64" width="32" height="32">
Parent-child avatars
When you need a larger parent avatar, and a smaller child one, overlaid slightly, use the parent-child classes.
<div class="avatar-parent-child float-left">
<img class="avatar" alt="jonrohan" src="/jonrohan.png?v=3&s=96" width="48" height="48">
<img class="avatar avatar-child" alt="josh" src="/josh.png?v=3&s=40" width="20" height="20">
</div>
Avatar stack
Stacked avatars can be used to show who is participating in thread when there is limited space available. When you hover over the stack, the avatars will reveal themselves. Optimally, you should put no more than 3 avatars in the stack.
<span class="avatar-stack tooltipped tooltipped-s" aria-label="jonrohan, aaronshekey, and josh">
<img alt="@jonrohan" class="avatar" height="39" alt="jonrohan" src="/jonrohan.png" width="39">
<img alt="@aaronshekey" class="avatar" height="39" alt="aaronshekey" src="/aaronshekey.png" width="39">
<img alt="@josh" class="avatar" height="39" alt="josh" src="/josh.png" width="39">
</span>
Circle Badge
.CircleBadge
allows for the display of badge-like icons or logos. They are used mostly with Octicons or partner integration icons.
.CircleBadge
should have an aria-label
, title
(for a link), or an alt
(for child img
elements) attribute specified if there is no text-based alternative to describe it. If there is a text-based alternative or the icon has no semantic value, aria-hidden="true"
or an empty alt
attribute may be used.
Small
<a class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--small float-left mr-2" href="#small" title="Travis CI">
<img src="<%= image_path "modules/site/travis-logo.png" %>" class="CircleBadge-icon" alt="">
</a>
<a class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--small bg-yellow" title="Zap this!" href="#small">
<%= octicon "zap", :class => "CircleBadge-icon text-white" %>
</a>
Medium
<div class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--medium bg-gray-dark">
<img src="<%= image_path "modules/site/travis-logo.png" %>" alt="Travis CI" class="CircleBadge-icon">
</div>
Large
<div class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--large">
<img src="<%= image_path "modules/site/travis-logo.png" %>" alt="Travis CI" class="CircleBadge-icon">
</div>
Dashed connection
For specific cases where two badges or more need to be shown as related or connected (such as integrations or specific product workflows), a DashedConnection
class was created. Use utility classes to ensure badges are spaced correctly.
<div class="DashedConnection">
<ul class="d-flex list-style-none flex-justify-between" aria-label="A sample GitHub workflow">
<li class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--small" aria-label="GitHub">
<%= octicon "mark-github", :class => "width-full height-full" %>
</li>
<li class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--small" aria-label="Slack">
<img src="<%= image_path "modules/site/logos/slack-logo.png" %>" alt="" class="CircleBadge-icon">
</li>
<li class="CircleBadge CircleBadge--small" aria-label="Travis CI">
<img src="<%= image_path "modules/site/travis-logo.png" %>" alt="" class="CircleBadge-icon">
</li>
</ul>
</div>
