Please see below for an example of how to override default configurations.

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

import { GravatarModule, GravatarDefaultConfig, FALLBACK_TYPES } from 'ngx-gravatar';

const gravatarConfig: GravatarDefaultConfig = {
  fallback: FALLBACK_TYPES.monsterid,
	hasBorder: true,
  borderColor: '#00ACC1',
}

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    // Import GravatarModule with custom configuration globally
    GravatarModule.forRoot(gravatarConfig)
