spssimage

A lightweight Python library for creating and manipulating images, including generating star maps with dynamic effects like twinkling stars and gradients.

Features

• Create static images with shapes, gradients, and colors.
• Generate animations (e.g., twinkling stars) and export them as GIFs.
• Apply radial gradients to simulate gas clouds.
• Lightweight and independent of external libraries like OpenCV or Pillow.

Installation

Install the library using pip:

pip install spssimage

USAGE: from spssimage.core import Canvas

Create a canvas

canvas = Canvas(100, 100, background=(0, 0, 0))

Define pixel positions for twinkling

pixel_positions = [(20, 20), (50, 50), (80, 80)]

Define the base color of the twinkling pixels

base_color = (255, 255, 255)

Save the twinkling pixels as a GIF

canvas.save_gif(pixel_positions, base_color, "twinkling_pixels.gif", frames=30, duration=100, loop=0)

2. Prepare for Deployment
