gifer

Gifer is a simple script to create gifs using only the imageio library for python.

Setup

Here's the documentation to install imageio https://imageio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html

And here's their website: https://imageio.github.io/

Firstly, you'll need to install the imageio libary, you can do so by typing this into your terminal:

  pip install imageio

Usage

I recommend you to open save the script in the folder where the images are, then open it and check lines 18 and 19. You'll have to see if your files are jpg or png and uncomment the line of your files type and comment the other one. The default one is png

Once this is done, to generate the gif:

  python gifer.py

Notes

• This script has been tested to create gifs from jpg and png files. It contains a function to check if the extension is .jpg or .png. Other image types require testing to assure its functionality.

• Although it works with every image, it works better if you assure that every image has the same dimensions.

Final Considerations

There are coments all over the code to make it simpler to understand, hope it's useful to you :)
