Profile picture

How can I get linkedin profile picture with passport auth strategy?

According to linkedin API the picture is accessible in basic profile permission

r_basicprofile Required to retrieve name, photo, headline, and current positions for authenticated user

I specified the scope

app.get('/auth/linkedin',
  passport.authenticate('linkedin', { scope: ['r_basicprofile', 'r_emailaddress'] }));

But have no idea what field should I use to get a picture.

passport.use(new LinkedInStrategy({
    // clientID, clientSecret and callbackURL
    profileFields: ['id', 'first-name', 'last-name', 'email-address', 'headline', 'smth_to_get_a_picture']
  },
  // verify callback
));

I found the field name - picture-url, but it is saved to pictureUrl parameter in profile not picture like in fb or g+

May be it is good idea to add picture field to standard passport profile fields (now it is supported by many providers).

+1 to the request, once 'picture-url' is in GET, the pictureUrl field is available in the response
