Avatar
A round picture of a person or team, falling back to initials when there is no image. Stack several with AvatarGroup.
Install
If this is the first component in the project, set up once. This writes ermine.json and copies the theme stylesheet. The installation guide covers Vue, Nuxt and Astro.
npx ermineui initpnpm dlx ermineui inityarn dlx ermineui initbunx ermineui initThen add the component:
npx ermineui add avatarpnpm dlx ermineui add avataryarn dlx ermineui add avatarbunx ermineui add avatarThat copies 3 files into src/components/ui/avatar/. Files you already have are kept.
Use
import { Avatar, AvatarGroup } from '@/components/ui/avatar'<Alert variant="destructive">
<svg>…</svg> <!-- optional: an svg placed first becomes the icon -->
<AlertTitle>Build failed</AlertTitle>
<AlertDescription>Type error in cart/total.ts on line 42.</AlertDescription>
</Alert>
<Avatar src="/people/ines.jpg" alt="Ines Kovač">IK</Avatar>
<Progress :value="35" aria-label="Upload" /> <!-- leave value out when the amount is unknown -->
<Spinner />
<Button :loading="saving" @click="save">Save</Button> <!-- a spinner, and no second press, while saving is true -->In Nuxt, with the auto-import setting, the tags work in templates without the import. In Astro, use it inside a Vue island.
