# React Avatar Generator
This was inspired by an old website called LayerVault. You can see an example of how that used to look like [here](https://dribbble.com/shots/691265-Kaleidoscope-In-Production).

## Getting Started
- `yarn add react-avatar-generator` or `npm i react-avatar-generator`
- `import AvatarGenerator from 'react-avatar-generator';`

## Example Usage
```

```

This creates something like this:

With a little playing around with this component I found it quite easy to make something similar to what LayerVault originally had.

| prop | type | default | options |
| ------------ | --------------- | ---------------------- | ---------------------- |

## Methods
| prop | type | description |
| ------------ | --------------- | ---------------------- |
| randomize | function | Randomizes the kaleidoscope to have a new random pattern |
| isValidHex | function | Passing in a string will return true of false if that string is a valid hex, a helpful function to have when working with colors |

## Using Methods

```
class CustomAvatarGenerator extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.avatarGenerator = null;
}

randomize() {
this.avatarGenerator.randomize();
}

render() {
return (


Randomize
{
this.avatarGenerator = el;
}
colors={['#333', '#222', '#ccc']}
backgroundColor="#000"
/>

);
}
}
```
