Installing

Python 3.5+ is required

To install the library, simply run the following command:

pip install banhammer

If you would like to use a pillow drop-in replacement, such as pillow-simd, then install that prior to installing the banhammer. All requirements should automatically install.

Usage

banhammer.Generator() is the main generator object. To generate an image, use Generator().image_gen(str) where str is your string of choice. This will return an io.BytesIO() object, which you can then manually write to a file or upload somewhere.

Example

The following example generates a GIF and saves it to a file called output.gif:

from banhammer import Generator

# Setup the generator
g = Generator()

# Generate the GIF (returns a BytesIO object)
im = g.image_gen('Example')

# Write the image to a file called output.gif
f = open('output.gif', 'wb')
f.write(im.read())
f.close()

The resulting GIF looks something like this:
