text-pic

This tool generates a social media-friendly graphic from some text. It's especially made to be paired with WriteFreely, 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)
