Pixelated Avatar Generator

Pixelated Avatar Generator is a Haskell library and application for generating pixelated avatar images from seed values.

import Graphics.Avatars.Pixelated

createAndSaveAvatar :: String -> FilePath -> IO ()
createAndSaveAvatar s path = saveAvatar avatar path
  where avatar = scaleAvatar 32 $ generateAvatar seed
        seed   = createSeed s

Executable

An example executable program that uses the library is also provided. It creates an avatar from a given seed string and saves the created .png image to a given file location.

The executable can be compiled by running the following command:

$ stack build

The executable can then by run by running it with stack exec and providing it the desired filepath of the output file including the .png extension and a random seed string.

$ stack exec pixelated-avatar-generator image.png "Hello, World"
