stdgif

Standard output for gifs.

Dumps gifs to stdout or creates shell scripts that can be sourced from a .bashrc or other shell initialization file.

The clever algorithm (that I had nothing to do with) that shows amazing ANSI renderings of images was ported from Stefan Haustein's TerminalImageViewer.

Use pip to install:

pip install stdgif

Requirements:

• Requests
• Pillow

Usage:

stdgif [-h] [-w WIDTH] [-f] [-d DELAY] [-o OUTPUT] [-s SEPERATOR] img


-w <WIDTH>, --width <WIDTH>

   Set the output width of the resulting gif

-f, --forever

    Loop the gif in the terminal until you hit Ctrl-C

-d <DELAY>, --delay <DELAY>

    Delay in seconds between frames of the gif

-o <FILE>, --output <FILE>

    Generate bash script path, if this option is passed, rather than output
    the gif on stdout, stdgif will generate a bash script that can be executed
    to show the gif. This bash script is, of course, suitable for sourcing
    from a ``.bashrc`` or other shell initialization file.

-s <SEPERATOR>, --seperator <SEPERATOR>

    The value of <SEPERATOR> will be printed between each frame of the gif
