## 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`:

```python
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:
