Install requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

aggdraw has to be installed manually, pip can't do it for you.

Here are directions that should work on any 64 bit platform (tested on osx 10.11.4)

This doesn't install freetype, but I don't think its required for this project

cd $TMPDIR
# or hg clone https://stefanfoulis@bitbucket.org/2degrees/aggdraw-64bits
# instead of the next 2 commands
wget https://bitbucket.org/2degrees/aggdraw-64bits/get/a95a86958b68.zip
unzip a95a86958b68.zip -d aggdraw-64bits
cd aggdraw-64bits
/usr/local/bin/python setup.py build_ext -i
/usr/local/bin/python setup.py install

How to Use

Not exactly sure. I think I'm supposed to run python extract_scene.py generate_logo.py, but that fails with the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "extract_scene.py", line 205, in main
    handle_scene(SceneClass(**scene_kwargs), **config)
