Setup

For the Processing Application

Copy runner.py and handle_commit.sh into libraries/site-packages inside your Processing directory.

For Processing in Vim

Copy runner.py and handle_commit.sh into libraries inside your Processing directory.

You can use :make by downloading the Processing JAR file and specifying the following in ~.vim/ftplugin/pyde.vim: set makeprg=java\ -jar\ PATH_TO_JAR_FILE\ %

Usage

Below is a simple example of using Runner. What it does:

• Generates five new images based on the custom code
• Saves the images in an images folder in the repository
• Saves the seeds (random and noise) used for each image in a seeds.txt file in the repository
• Initializes a git repository (if necessary), adds all files (including the images, seeds file, and pyde file), and commits everything

from runner import Runner

desired_number = 5
runner = Runner(desired_number)

def setup():
    runner.setup()
    size(runner.width, runner.height)

def draw():
    runner.refresh()

    # CUSTOM CODE HERE

    runner.handle_save()

Runner also supports the following arguments:

• size_multiplier - to increase the size of the image from the default 540x480 size ratio
• open_on_save - to open the files that were saved after a run with the os.open function

Pending

• Add support for custom sizes
• Add separate commit message if code changed in commit
• Fix flash screen when running from Vim
• Call size in setup according to https://processing.org/reference/settings_.html
• Remove explicit calls of runner functions
