# Devicon API v1.1.0

### [Devicon API - Interface](https://lunaticfox.vercel.app/deviconApi)

---
This project serves [Devicon](https://github.com/devicons/devicon) v2.15.1 icons¹ via API, that way you can edit the icon color and size on the fly.
> 1. *Only icons that can be converted to font, in other words, only monochromatic plain icons.*

## 1. Overview
Use the base URL below to access the API.
```https
https://deviconapi.vercel.app/
```
**Through this documentation this base URL will be referred as `/`**
[***Jump to examples >>***](#2-examples)
[*back to top*](#devicon-api)
### 1.1. Selecting icon
Just add the icon name after the base URL. If no other parameter is added it will return the default icon in its default color with 128×128px of size.
***Example***
```https
/csharp
/cplusplus
/javascript
```
[*back to top*](#devicon-api)
### 1.2. Selecting theme or color
You can choose the color of the icon by adding the `theme` or `color` parameter, using `&` after the icon name.\
Is important to note that `theme` has priority over `color` parameter, so if both are present only `theme` will work.
[*back to top*](#devicon-api)
### 1.2.1. theme
This parameter receives `light` or `dark` as value.
In GitHub markdown you should use a wrapping logic. See the example below.
***Example***
```html
```
***Result***
---
A dark color scheme is defined in `source.media` and `srcset` points to a dark themed icon `#ffffff`. If `source.media` is false, then the inner `img` will be shown instead and `src` should be pointing to a light themed icon `#000000`.
***Example using `dark`***\
Next.js icon filled in `#ffffff`
```https
/nextjs?theme=dark
```
***Example using `light`***\
Next.js icon filled in `#000000`
```https
/nextjs?theme=light
```
[*back to top*](#devicon-api)
### 1.2.2. color
This parameter receives any hexadecimal color and CSS colors as value.
**Note that hexadecimal colors can not have `#` on the request!**
Hexadecimal colors can be in any of the following patterns: `2ff`, `22ffff`, `abc5`, `aabbcc55`.
***Example using hexadecimal***\
JavaScript icon filled in `#ff5656`
```https
/javascript?color=ff5656
```
***Example using CSS color***\
JavaScript icon filled in `#ff0000`
```https
/javascript?color=red
```

### 1.3. Selecting version
Sometimes, icons are in different versions and you can specify which one you want by passing a version value to `version` parameter.
Possible version values are: `original`, `plain`, `line`,`original-wordmark`, `plain-wordmark` and `line-wordmark`.
**Remember that this API works only with monochromatic icons.**\
**You can see all supported versions of each icon in this [list](./docs/list-of-icons-and-versions/README.md).**
***Example using `line`***\
Apache icon in `line` version where default is `plain`.
```https
/apache?version=line
```

### 1.4. Resizing
If you are using Markdown you can resize the icon without add an `img` element with `width` attribute, for instance. Just add some value to the `size` parameter and you are ready to go.
***Example using 50px***\
Node.js icon in 50×50px.
```https
/nodejs?size=50
```
