pytextimage

Generate custom images with text easily.

Generated by pytextimage

This image was created with this command:

pytextimage -b transparent -t py [path to SourceSans3-Bold] yellow -t text [path to SourceSans3-Bold] grey -t image [path to SourceSans3-Bold] blue -s pytextimage.png

Installation

Install python3 and fontconfig. (It can work without fontconfig however it won't be able to resolve fonts so you will have to type their names exactly. Default sans-serif font won't work either.)

Run these commands:

git clone https://github.com/cosmicproc/pytextimage
pip3 install ./pytextimage

Then you can run the program with:

pytextimage

Usage

Just run the program, and it should ask you the required specifications of your desired image. If you want to automate or generate image with a single key press, you can also use the command line flags. To learn what flags are available, use the -h or --help flag.
