Free-as-in-beer-time TIRMESTER 02!!
General intro-outro-duction to the trimester:
Explorers
Python and library-exploitation
Time has come to venture into the venomous inner of the snake. With the amour of last trimesters java-scripting and the latest shell-exploration this travel has yet been quite pleasant. Though syntax and commands differ from js in quite some ways, I'm managing (with aid from google/stackoverflow) to piece together larger scripts performing more complex tasks.
a) Image-finding-friend 19:42, 24 January 2013 (CET)
Currently I'm working on a tool which allows you to grap, save and preview all images present in a specific URL. I'm using a series of different python libraries to perform this action, most important in this edition:
- pycurl: Provides the ability to transfer the structure of an URL - Fetch desired URL
- Beautifulsoup: Makes it possible to search within an URL given to it from pycurl - find IMG-tags, and strip it so that only the image-link is left
- Urllib2: Allows you to download the content of a link - download images passed from Beautifulsoup
Eventually I take 'imagemagick' in use to merge the downloaded images into what imagemagick calls a montage; a composition of all desired images.
My current script is probably very quirky written, can probably be shortened drastically, and only works most of the times. But HEY! It's still pretty fun.
Shell Scriptin'
The latest few weeks I've been playing around with shell-scripting. Though still operating in Mac OSX (to the concern of many.. i shall migrate eventually), i've managed to put together small experiments using and interfering with the operating-system in, in some cases, disturbing ways.
b) Open them images! 19:42, 24 January 2013 (CET)
A shell which allows it to open an array of images opening and closing each in a rapid loop. The picks are 'sorted' randomly and all the images are found in big fan-png-packages trough deviantart.com. Justin Bieber meets the trolls of the internet.
a) Text Shuffle 19:42, 24 January 2013 (CET)
This will shuffle the contents of a text-file, while also try to read aloud the shuffled material in all the available 'speach-voices' of the default Mac OSX 10.6.7. Maybe a whole new form of poetry? MAC-A-POEM.
