API

parseFavicon

type TextFetcher = (url: string) => Awaitable<string> // string | PromiseLike<string>
type BufferFetcher = (url: string) => Awaitable<ArrayBuffer> // ArrayBuffer | PromiseLike<ArrayBuffer>

interface IIcon {
  url: string
  reference: string
  type: null | string
  size: null | 'any' | ISize | ISize[]
}

interface ISize {
  width: number
  height: number
}

function parseFavicon(
  pageURL: string
, textFetcher: TextFetcher
, bufferFetcher?: BufferFetcher
): Observable<IIcon>

parseFavicon accepts textFetcher and bufferFetcher for further fetching requests when parsing icons, bufferFetcher is optional. If you need actual icon sizes and type, should provide bufferFetcher.
