handmade

Example

Default Dictionary

Create an folder at your project root called letters/default with this image named 00 abc.png.

Initialize the default dictionary, you need to do this just once. It'll create a file for each character.

```rust use handmade::{text::*, text_img};

static LOREM : &str = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.";

fn main() { textimg::updateimages(None).unwrap(); } ```

Now you can write anything that you want.

```rust use handmade::{text::*, text_img};

static LOREM : &str = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.";

fn main() { let mut text = Text::new(&pages::DEFAULT); text.parsetopng(LOREM, Some("example")); } ```

You'll find the result at the output folder named example-1.png. For each page handmade will create a file and will put it on the output file. If None is used at parse_to_png function, the files identifier will be page.

Your own Dictionary

To use your own handwritten letter, first you'll need create a file just like the example below:

All letters must be in one line, in this exactly order to it to work. Remove any imperfections between letters, this kind of thing can lead to unexpected results.

Then you'll need to create a new folder in letters folder with the desired name for the given dictionary, then put the letters file in it named 00 abc.png.

The next step is to initialize the dictionary, it's done just like with Default, but you'll need to pass the dictionary name to update_images function.

For example, I've created a folder called letters/myDictionary with the 00 abc.png, so this is the step-by-step usage:

```rust use handmade::{text::*, text_img};

static LOREM : &str = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.";

fn main() { let dic = "myDictionary" textimg::updateimages(Some(dic)).unwrap(); } ```

To use you'll need to create the Text struct with the function Text::new_with_dic_name, passing the dictionary name, besides that, the usage is the same.

```rust use handmade::{text::*, text_img};

static LOREM : &str = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.";

fn main() { let dic = "myDictionary";

text_img::update_images(Some(dic)).unwrap();

let mut text = Text::new_with_dic_name(&pages::DEFAULT, dic);
text.parse_to_png(LOREM, Some("example"));

} ```

Final Thoughts

The core concept of this lib was gently taken from handwritten.js.
