daboth / pagan Goto Github PK

Hello to all supporters and a very special "Thank you" for using pagan in your projects. I never thought this one would draw such attention and i'm overwhelmed by the positive feedback it got. I got back into programming a while ago, so let's start out with some ideas. The first one being backgrounds. It always bothered me, that the backgrounds are plain as can be. Instead i started looking for some mechanics to generate some overall color metric from the generated virtual pixels to add a background in complementary colors to the mix. The challenge is to generate a background that does not only avoid to obfuscate the drawn figures, but actually highlight them, so that every result from pagan is a good and usable complete image.

The templates to generate each figure are purely textbase, to enable everyone to contribute on this without any affinity or knowledge about programming. Do you think the system needs a rework? From my point of view, as i grew as a software/scientific guy, the currently implemented systems seems a bit outdated. Would appreciate everyones thought on that. This issue, by far however, is placed super late in my backlog, so take your time.

There is a small typo in tools/webserver/webserver.py.
Should read uses rather than usese.

Hello everyone. I lack the power to describe this topic, but you know the trend where every app takes your image and crops a circle from it? Yes, this looks bad with the native pagan output and will surely take some workaround if you consider pagan as a tool in an automated process. So i'm open for suggestions here. The first thing i could think of would be to just generate a bigger "outer space" around the actual image, but i'd like to reach out for a better, more "standalone too" option to cover this case.

The are currently no public Docker images available. An image would be useful for easy deployment of the webserver (in production and for testing purposes) as well as a convenient CLI without the need to install external dependencies.

PR merged! Thanks you all!

Hello again. This is a big one. I really liked the original idea to limit myself on the overall virtual pixel output. What are your thoughts about increasing the size to generate more detailed figures and maybe even add background generation in this process. I'm aware that it would have a mayor impact on the idea, so i'd really like to read your thoughts on this one.
