faviconer is simple Node.js module to extract an icon URL given the URL of a web page.
npm install -g faviconer
const faviconer = require('faviconer')
const main = async function() {
const iconURL = await faviconer.get('https://news.bbc.co.uk')
console.log(iconURL)
// https://m.files.bbci.co.uk/modules/bbc-morph-news-waf-page-meta/5.3.0/apple-touch-icon-57x57-precomposed.png
}
main()
Faviconer will return a string containing the absolute URL of the icon it found or null
if the URL is invalid, or doesn't contain a favicon URL.
