Fav2 is a simple application used to scrape the url of favicons from websites.

Note: Fav2 will not find icons on websites using HTTP

Usage

• GET: /icon?site=https://example.org
  • Try to load the favicon for this url
  • If the favicon hasn't been downloaded yet, the application will internally make the above POST request
• GET: /icon/cache
  • Shows the current contents of the cache
  • Note: will not return actual image data, just site names and cache age
• DELETE /icon/cache?site=https://example.org
  • Will remove the favicon for this site from the cache
  • Note: this will not remove the favicon if it's been saved to permanent storage
