Welcome to sketchpy

Description

This is the Intermediate level python project to do some awesome drawing animation using the turtle module, hope it grows in the future. It is a Python module for animating drawings of images. The sketchpy module is created on top of the turtle module in Python. To install sketchpy on your computer, you can go to your command prompt (command line) and run the following command.

Usage

  • Just install the package pip install sketchpy3
  • Followed by pip install --upgrade sketchpy3 to update the package to the latest version.
  • Import it to you project import sketchpy3 and use as you want😊

Built with

  • Turtle
  • Open-cv
  • Pillow
  • numpy
  • Svgpathtools

Getting started

Lastes version of sketchpy: 0.1.8

  • you can install the latest version with either
    pip install sketchpy3==0.3.1

or

    pip install sketchpy3 --U

Updates!!

  • Now uses AI to generate different styles of images for sketching using the class canvas.ai_sketch_from_image

  • You can use the function as followes

        from sketchpy3 import canvas
        if __name__ == "__main__":
            obj = canvas.ai_sketch_from_image(IMG_PATH,3)
            obj.draw()
    
  • Sample

  • The first image is the source image, and the following corresponds to different styles from [0-3]
  • This version 0.3.1 uses multiprocessing for processing the single svg file in 4 different threads to reduce the time for loading the svg file
  • Sample
  • And I have included a new function named get_svg() from canvas to convert your Image to svg,
  • You can use the function as followes
        from sketchpy import canvas
        canvas.get_svg(img_path)
    
  • The get_svg() function opens a short url only once a day. Just enter the 4 digit number from the landing page from the short url in the cmd to access the svg converter. And you need to complete the short url only once a day, So it's no big deal.

Prerequisites

  • Python
  • Basic text editor
  • creativity😂

Install

    pip install sketchpy3

it should probably work, If not then try the following code

    pip install turtle open-cv wheel sketchpy3

Trace from Image

The recent version of the package includes a class named trace_from_image(), which allowes you to get the same output as using a svg file without the need to convert it to a svg file. hecnce it reduces the run time and it is much effecient.

  • To know more about this new class visit the blog post here.
  • A sample output of the class trace_from_image().
  • you can take a view about how the class working in here

Sample Code:

    from sketchpy3 impor canvas
    obj = canvas.trace_from_image("Image Path")
    obj.draw()

Parameters :

- Path: Path of the image
- Scale:
      -scaling factor for the sketched image,
      - less than 1 => smaller than original image
      - equal to 1 => original size
      - greater than 1 => greater than original image

- intensity -> intensity of details, keep the value between 0 and 255, optimal value lies between(200 - 255)
- save -> take a screenshot when the program stops sketching, false by default
- details -> use to skip the small details from the image to increase the speed. details=0 -> inculde all minor details, details=50 -> include all details which are greater than 50
- blur -> always provide a odd number, the lower the value the more distortion, higher the value the more smooth, optimal value 51
- skip_frequency -> used to speed the sketchpy the process by skipping some values

Sketch from Image

used to trace the image line by line.

Example Code :

    from sketchpy impor canvas
    obj = canvas.sketch_from_image("Image Path")
    obj.draw(threshold = 127)

Parameters

- path -> path of the image
- save -> used to same the results

you can watch the example video from here

NOTE: you can change the value of threshold to draw more detailed image, it's range is 0 - 255,use values between 90-190

to know more about it visit here

Drawing From SVG file

You can sketch image uinsg the class color_sketch_from_svg, which takes the inpu in svg formate and then sketches it. Example Code:

    from sketchpy3 impor canvas
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        obj = canvas.color_sketch_from_svg("Image Path")
        obj.draw()

Example output

NOTE: sketch_from_svg class is remove from the package, since it can only draw with single color, color_sketch_from_svg class will be available.

Parameters

- color_sketch_from_svg
    - path -> path of the svg file
    - no_of_processes -> no of individual branches the process the svg file
    - scale -> zoom value
    - x_offset -> amount of movemnt in x direction
    - y_offset -> amount of movemnt in y direction
    - save -> (True by defaule)= take a screenshot and save it
- load_svg
    - file_name -> name of the npy array, you can use this array data to sketch images directly
- draw
    - retain -> retain the window after sketching (true by defaule)
    - file -> file path of the npy file for direct sketching
    - data -> raw data,  should be a list in [[[x1,y1], [x2,y2], ....], [255,255,255]], first nested list is the points and the second list the color
    - x_offset -> amount of movement in x direction while sketching
    - y_offset -> amount of movement in y direction while sketching
    - scale -> zoom value while sketching
    - speed -> speed of sketching

Sketching form .npy file

Insted of waiting for the svg file to load, you can saved .npy file and use that for future use, use the following code to draw your image from saved data file

    from sketchpy3 import canvas
    obj = canvas.color_sketch_from_svg(None)
    obj.draw(file = 'data.npy')

Converting Image to SVG formate

Sketchpy3 requires specific type of SVG file formate to work properly, hence this version includes a standalone svg converter function with it use the follow code to convert you images to svg files

    from sketchpy3 import canvas
    canvas.get_svg(IMG_PATH)
  • It takes the image from the IMG_PATH and converts it into an svg file
  • But to access this SVG converter you have to complete a shorturl, don't worry you need to do this only once a day
  • Use brave browser to complete it with ih 20 sec.

Converting Image to AI ART

  • This new version sketchpy3 includes a class named ai_sketch_from_image

  • This class converts the given imag to different styles of image using generative art from bryandlee/animegan2

  • You can use it as follows

    from sketchpy3 import canvas
    
     if __name__ == "__main__":
         obj = canvas.ai_sketch_from_image(IMG_PATH, STYLE_INDEX)
         obj.draw()
    

Use the following code to get the AI ART as image

```
from sketchpy3 import canvas
obj = canvas.ai_sketch_from_image(IMG_PATH, STYLE_INDEX)
obj.convert_image()
```
  • You can find your output image as source.jpg file

Example

Parameters

- ai_sketch_from_image
    - path -> path of the svg file
    - style_index -> [0-3] each number produces different styles of image
    - no_of_processes -> no of individual branches the process the svg file
    - scale -> zoom value
    - x_offset -> amount of movemnt in x direction
    - y_offset -> amount of movemnt in y direction
    - save -> (True by defaule)= take a screenshot and save it
- load_svg
    - file_name -> name of the npy array, you can use this array data to sketch images directly
- draw
    - retain -> retain the window after sketching (true by defaule)
    - file -> file path of the npy file for direct sketching
    - data -> raw data,  should be a list in [[[x1,y1], [x2,y2], ....], [255,255,255]], first nested list is the points and the second list the color
    - x_offset -> amount of movement in x direction while sketching
    - y_offset -> amount of movement in y direction while sketching
    - scale -> zoom value while sketching
    - speed -> speed of sketching
