fagflag 1.0.1

Generate pride flags as bitmap or vector images

FagFlag

A Python package to generate pride flags in bitmap (PNG) or vector (SVG) formats. Supports a variety of pride flag color schemes and allows generating flags in customizable sizes with the option to overlay PNG images.

Features

• Generate Bitmap Flags (PNG): Create pride flags in bitmap format with customizable sizes and optional PNG overlay.
• Generate Vector Flags (SVG): Generate pride flags in SVG format with a fixed aspect ratio.
• Color Schemes: Includes several popular pride flag color schemes (e.g., Transgender, Gay, Bi, Nonbinary).
• Output Flexibility: Supports generating flags in either "bitmap" (PNG) or "vector" (SVG) formats.
• Customizable Sizes: Bitmap flags can be generated in different sizes with user-defined width and height.
• Overlay PNG: Option to overlay a PNG image (resized to fit the flag) on the generated bitmap flags.

Installation

To install the package, use pip:

pip install pride-flag-generator

Alternatively, you can clone the repository and install it locally:

git clone https://github.com/Red-Panda-Studios/fagflag
cd pride-flag-generator
pip install .

Usage

Importing the Package

from pride_flag_generator import generate_flags

Generating Flags

You can generate flags by specifying the flag names, output format, sizes, output directory, and optionally, a PNG overlay image.

from pride_flag_generator import generate_flags

# Example usage: Generate pride flags
flags = ["trans", "gay", "bi"]
output_format = "bitmap"  # Can be "bitmap" or "vector"
sizes = ["100", "200", "300"]  # For bitmap flags, or use "svg" for vector flags
output_dir = "./generated_flags"
overlay_path = "./overlay_image.png"  # Optional overlay image path

generate_flags(flags, output_format, sizes, output_dir, overlay_path)

Available Pride Flags

• Transgender Pride: "trans"
• Gay Pride: "gay"
• Bisexual Pride: "bi"
• Nonbinary Pride: "nonbinary"

You can easily extend the PRIDE_FLAGS dictionary with more flags.

Bitmap Flags

Bitmap flags are generated in PNG format. The sizes argument is a list of integers (e.g., ["100", "200", "300"]) that specify the sizes of the generated images. The images will be saved in the output directory with filenames like flag_name_widthxheight.png. You can also pass an optional PNG image to overlay on the flag (the image will be resized to match the flag's size).

Vector Flags

Vector flags are generated in SVG format with a fixed height of 100 units and a 2:1 aspect ratio. To generate vector flags, pass "svg" in the sizes argument.

Overlaying PNG

You can optionally provide a PNG image to overlay on the bitmap flags. The image will be resized to fit the width and height of the generated flag. For example:

overlay_path = "./overlay_image.png"  # Optional PNG overlay image path
