External URL Avatar Plugin Configuration

This plugin allows to use an own web service to load the avatar images from.

Options:

  • avatar.url - the location of avatar images containing ${user}, which will then be replaced by the username. Required.
  • avatar.changeUrl - the URL shown in Gerrit's user settings to tell the user, where the avatar can be changed. Optional.
  • avatar.sizeParameter - URL parameter with ${size} placeholder to forward the preferred image size to the avatar provider. Optional.
  • avatar.lowerCase - Convert the username and email to lower case. Default value = false. Optional.

Example (to be added to etc/gerrit.config):

[avatar]
    url = http://example.org/avatars/${user}.jpg
    changeUrl = http://example.org/account.html
    sizeParameter = s=${size}x${size}
    lowerCase = true

Please note that http:// URLs will be automatically rewritten to https://, if gerrit.canonicalWebUrl uses HTTPS.
