# Identicon
A port of GitHub's [identicon](https://github.blog/2013-08-14-identicons/)
algorithm to Go, based on
[the Rust implementation](https://github.com/dgraham/identicon) (licensed
under the
[MIT License](https://github.com/dgraham/identicon/blob/master/LICENSE)).
## To Build
To build the binary, run:
```bash
go build ./cmd/identicon
```
## To Use
To generate the identicon for your GitHub account, run:
```bash
echo -n | /path/to/identicon > /path/to/output.png
```
You may check out your GitHub user ID at
`https://api.github.com/users/`. Verify that you get the same
result as from `https://github.com/identicons/.png`.
To generate a random identicon, simply pass in any random input to the
program.
