Built with Processing
Read about this in more detail in this blog post.
You can add these libraries via the Processing package manager:
Sketch ⟶ Import Library ⟶ Add Library…
- OpenCV for Processing for face recognition for framing in a way inspired by the work of Chris Marker and Jason Simon.
- ControlP5 for parameter testing/control.
You can run this program in an arbitrary book as long as you properly describe it as shown in test-book.json. The JSON file must be only one line.
Usage
Export the stand-alone Linux (32 or 64-bit) application from Processing via File > Export Application and run the resulting binary using:
./imagecoverp5tint /path/to/images/with/trailing/slash/ /path/to/output/folder/with/trailing/slash/ /path/to/book.json title_font_file-size.vlw author_font_file-size.vlw
The VLW font files must conform to the specified name-size.vlw convention so that the application knows what size to apply when running. You create your own fonts via the Tools > Create Font... dialog.
Generated covers are output to the provided folder creating a book-id/ subfolder and putting the covers there in PNG format.
