DiceBear 9.1 - Release Notes

[FlorianKoerner]

This release adds support for the WebP and AVIF image formats. The JS library, the HTTP API, and the command line API support the new image formats.

We support WebP and AVIF as modern alternatives to PNG and JPEG. WebP and AVIF can be used on platforms that support these newer file formats but do not support SVG due to security policies.

HTTP-API

https://api.dicebear.com/9.x/lorelei/webp

https://api.dicebear.com/9.x/lorelei/avif

JavaScript

import { toWebp, toAvif } from '@dicebear/converter';
import { createAvatar } from '@dicebear/core';
import { lorelei } from '@dicebear/collection';

const avatar = createAvatar(lorelei);

// WebP
const webpBuffer = await toWebp(avatar).toArrayBuffer();

// AVIF
const avifBuffer = await toAvif(avatar).toArrayBuffer();

Command-line API

# webp
dicebear lorelei --format webp

# avif
dicebear lorelei --format avif
