This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.
castletool
Images, vector graphics, videos, audio. You name it, castletool (probably) supports it.
Castletool is a custom tool that lets you import things to castle more easily.
Installation
pip install castletool
Requires Python and the Castle CLI
Usage
Run castletool inside a folder containing your Castle deck(s).
You may also use castletool --cli for the legacy interface.
castletool --version (or -v) prints the installed version.
Capabilities
- Add image — bitmap images, animated GIF/WEBP/APNG, video (with sound), and SVG are all supported.
- Add MIDI — converts a MIDI file into a Castle
Musiccomponent. Optionally splits notes into separate instruments by note length (same length + same MIDI instrument share one). - Add Font — renders a font's characters as vectors.
- Edit Background Color — sets the card's background color.
- Upload Deck — strips whitespace from every JSON file in the deck, then runs
castle save-deck.
Add Font: Basic
Choose from preset unicode ranges and select as many as you want:
- Standard (0-255, excluding control characters)
- ASCII
- Alphanumeric
- Numeric
- Currency Symbols
- Greek Characters
- Fraction Symbols
- Arrows
- Mathematical Operators
- Miscellaneous Technical
- Box Drawing
- Block Elements
- Dingbats
- Braille Patterns
- Musical Symbols
Add Font: Advanced
Choose all characters/codepoints yourself:
- Plain characters are typed as-is:
0123456789ABCDEF. - A specific codepoint is written
U+XXXX(hex):U+03A9is Ω. - Separate every codepoint with a space: Something like
U+03A9U+0021is invalid. - Any character or codepoint used twice is rejected.
Loading from a file uses the same rules, plus -- starts a comment that runs to the end of the line.
