# text-pic
|
||
|
|
||
|
This tool generates a social media-friendly graphic from some text. It's especially made to be paired with [WriteFreely](https://writefreely.org), a minimalist blogging platform.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
To run this, you'll need Go installed. With that, you can compile the project:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
go get github.com/writeas/text-pic/cmd/wfgraphic-cli
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then you can run `wfgraphic-cli` with the options below. The actual content of the graphic is read from `stdin`, which you can either supply when prompted to, or pipe in (e.g. `cat quote.txt | ./wfgraphic-cli`).
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
Usage of wfgraphic-cli:
|
||
|
-font string
|
||
|
Post font (options: "serif", "sans", "mono") (default "serif")
|
||
|
-i string
|
||
|
WriteFreely instance hostname (e.g. pencil.writefree.ly) (default "write.as")
|
||
|
-o string
|
||
|
Image output filename (default "out.png")
|
||
|
-u string
|
||
|
WriteFreely author username (for multi-user instances)
|
||
|
```
