PrimitiveGif

Uses the primitive library to automate creating gifs

Primitive takes in a single image (.png) and recreates the image using primitive shapes. The process is random and creating multiple images is a nice effect for a gif. This script automates the process of creating 8 primitive images, and then converts them into a gif.

Installing / Getting started

This script requires primitive be installed. (Primitive has no public class for import)

git clone https://github.com/Genji-MS/PrimitiveGif.git
go get -u github.com/fogleman/primitive
go test

The test script will ensure that primitive has been installed correctly. If the test fails, follow the instructions in the error message then re-test

To run the script, place any number of .png files in the local directory and use

go build && ./main -dir=.

The completed gif will be written into the same directory as .gif
