An RMagick-based two-caption meme generator.

You'll need ImageMagick installed. The easiest way is to use Homebrew.

brew install imagemagick

Then install the gem!

gem install memegen

To see a list of available images:

$ memegen --list
a_dog
p_obama
...

To generate an image:

$ memegen a_dog "Eat Crayons" "Poop Rainbows"
/tmp/meme-1234567890.jpg
$ 

You only have to supply one piece of text:

$ memegen a_dog "" "AWESOME"
/tmp/meme-1234567890.jpg
$

You can also use URLs for one time use memes:

$ memegen http://example.com/stupid.jpg "Generated" "From a URL"
/tmp/meme-1234567890.jpg
$

You can add images to your local ~/.memegen folder:

$ ls ~/.memegen
my_custom_image.png

If you have a Campfire account and token, you can automatically upload your image:

$ memegen a_dog "Hello" "Campfire world" --campfire

It will prompt you for your subdomain, token, and room name the first time.

If you have Zach Holman's Cloudapp script, you can automatically upload your image to your Cloudapp account:

$ memegen y_u_no "WHY U NO" "USE CLOUDAPP" --cloudapp
Uploaded to http://cl.ly/3U2I3R2Z1X1I0q303N0I. 

You'll have to configure ~/.cloudapp first.

Source or copy script/autocomplete.sh inside ~/.bashrc to get image name autocompletion.
