# dimicon
**D**ocker **Im**age **Icon** - A library for fetching Docker image icons from various sources.
[](https://crates.io/crates/dimicon)
[](https://docs.rs/dimicon)
[](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)
## Features
- Fetch icons from Docker Hub image logos
- Fetch icons from Docker Hub organization Gravatars
- Fetch icons from [devicons/devicon](https://github.com/devicons/devicon) (via jsDelivr CDN, opt-in with `devicon` feature)
- Fetch icons from Docker Official Images (via jsDelivr CDN)
- Fetch icons from GitHub Container Registry (via GitHub Avatar)
- Parse Docker image reference strings in various formats
## Installation
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
dimicon = "0.1"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["rt-multi-thread", "macros"] }
```
To enable [devicons/devicon](https://github.com/devicons/devicon) icon lookup:
```toml
[dependencies]
dimicon = { version = "0.1", features = ["devicon"] }
```
## Quick Start
```rust
use dimicon::IconService;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), dimicon::Error> {
let service = IconService::new();
// Get icon for an official image
let icon = service.get_icon("nginx").await?;
if let Some(url) = icon.url() {
println!("nginx icon: {}", url);
}
// Get icon for a user/org image
let icon = service.get_icon("localstack/localstack").await?;
println!("localstack icon: {:?}", icon.url());
// Get icon for a ghcr.io image
let icon = service.get_icon("ghcr.io/astral-sh/uv").await?;
println!("ghcr icon: {:?}", icon.url());
Ok(())
}
```
## Supported Registries
| Docker Hub (`docker.io`) | Official Image logo → Devicon → Image logo → Org Gravatar |
| GitHub Container Registry (`ghcr.io`) | GitHub Avatar → Devicon |
| Other registries | Devicon |
## Image Reference Parsing
The library can parse various Docker image reference formats:
```rust
use dimicon::ImageReference;
// Simple image name
let img = ImageReference::parse("nginx")?;
assert_eq!(img.registry, "docker.io");
assert_eq!(img.namespace, "library");
assert_eq!(img.name, "nginx");
// Image with tag
let img = ImageReference::parse("nginx:latest")?;
assert_eq!(img.tag, Some("latest".to_string()));
// User/org image
let img = ImageReference::parse("myuser/myimage:v1.0")?;
assert_eq!(img.namespace, "myuser");
// GHCR image
let img = ImageReference::parse("ghcr.io/owner/app:latest")?;
assert!(img.is_ghcr());
// Custom registry
let img = ImageReference::parse("registry.example.com/namespace/image:tag")?;
assert_eq!(img.registry, "registry.example.com");
```
## Icon Sources
The `IconSource` enum represents different icon sources:
```rust
use dimicon::IconSource;
match icon {
IconSource::DockerHubLogo { url } => println!("Docker Hub logo: {}", url),
IconSource::DockerHubOrgGravatar { url } => println!("Org gravatar: {}", url),
IconSource::Devicon { url } => println!("Devicon: {}", url),
IconSource::DockerOfficialImage { url } => println!("Official image: {}", url),
IconSource::GhcrAvatar { url } => println!("GitHub avatar: {}", url),
IconSource::Custom { url } => println!("Custom icon: {}", url),
IconSource::NotFound => println!("No icon found"),
}
```
## API Overview
### `IconService`
The main service for fetching image icons.
```rust
// Create a new service
let service = IconService::new();
// Or with a custom reqwest client
let client = reqwest::Client::builder()
.timeout(std::time::Duration::from_secs(10))
.build()?;
let service = IconService::with_client(client);
// Fetch icon
let icon = service.get_icon("nginx").await?;
```
### `ImageReference`
Parse and inspect Docker image references.
```rust
let img = ImageReference::parse("ghcr.io/owner/app:v1")?;
img.is_docker_hub() // false
img.is_ghcr() // true
img.is_docker_official() // false
img.docker_hub_repo_name() // "owner/app"
img.full_name() // "ghcr.io/owner/app:v1"
```
### Convenience Function
For one-off lookups:
```rust
let icon = dimicon::get_icon("redis").await?;
```
## How It Works
The library fetches icons using the following priority:
1. **Registry-specific free sources**: Docker Official Image logos (via jsDelivr CDN), GitHub avatars for GHCR images.
2. **[Devicon](https://github.com/devicons/devicon)**: Looks up the image name in the devicons/devicon icon library via jsDelivr CDN. This is a universal fallback that works for any registry.
3. **Rate-limited Docker Hub APIs**: Image logo, then organization Gravatar via the Docker Hub API. These are tried last to conserve the per-IP rate limit (180 req/hour).
## Rate Limiting
Docker Hub APIs have per-IP rate limits. For production use, consider:
- Caching icon URLs
- Using a proxy service like [go-camo](https://github.com/cactus/go-camo) for image proxying
- Implementing request throttling
## Examples
Run the basic example:
```bash
cargo run --example basic
```
