🎨 The WordArt generator bot for Telegram @bestWordArtBot

The Telegram bot that generate beautiful wordArts for you! Try it on @bestWordArtBot.

Usage

To generate an WordArt you have the following options:

• Answer to a massage with the /wordart command
• Write the desired text right next to /wordart

You can also use the /rainbow command instead of /wordart. Use also /two and /three to generate compositions of multiple WordArt styles.

Running locally

The most simple way is to build and run the Docker container, just issue $ docker build --tag bot . && docker run -e MODE=dev -e BOT_TOKEN=<token> bot.

Alternatively you can install all the dependencies (check the Dockerfile for more information) and run $ export MODE=dev && export BOT_TOKEN=<token> && python3 bot.py.

Acknowledgments

Thanks @arizzitano for creating the reproduction of WordArt in CSS3 and @zorbaproject for presenting a simple template to generate the WordArt text.

wordartbot's Issues

Add custom commands like '/rainbow'

Add commands for specific word art styles such the already implemented one '/rainbow'

Add inline support

It would be great if you could do @wordart my wordart text in a chat with someone and have it generate the image, sort of like how @gif works.

Avoiding shell injection

This line will concatenate user input to run a shell command, which may be used to exploit shell injection and run arbitrary code on the server.

Since both scripts are Python, we can import the other file as a library and just run the function, passing user input as function parameters – instead of reading from argv.
