Installation

The repository contains a zipped file of my Python package asciimage and should be installed via pip.
Instalation procedure: pip install asciimage

Motivation

The package is intended as a simple drawing tool that produces ASCII art.
The user will upload an image. The image has to be a jpg or png image. The image should have a nice contrast for proper output.
The package contains the function make_ascii_image() which produces ascii art

Example

This is the way to run the module:

	from asciimage import *
	from PIL import Image #import the module
	image_path = "input_image.jpg"
	file_path = "output.txt" #'output.txt' is the destination where the ASCII art will be stored
	ascii_char = list(",.")
	height = 400 #intended height of output file
	width = 400 #intended width of output file
	art = asciimage(image_path,file_path,ascii_char,height,width) #optional: ascii_char,height,width
	art.make_ascii_image()

If you like the library, please consider giving it a star on Github :)
