# Clickgen

Clickgen is cross-platform python library for building XCursor and Windows Cursors.

Clickgen's core functionality is heavily inspired by [quantum5/win2xcur](https://github.com/quantum5/win2xcur) from _v2.0.0_ and onwards.

-   **2024-05-24:** Clickgen now allows cursor bitmap re-canvasing by specifying size using the `cursor_size:canvas_size` format. See [changelog-05212024](https://github.com/ful1e5/clickgen/discussions/59#discussioncomment-9511166)
-   **2023-08-23:** `ctgen` CLI supports `.json` and `.yaml`/`.yml` as configuration file.
-   **2023-08-17:** Cursor size settings moved to `[cursors.fallback_settings]` in config. See [changelog-08172023](https://github.com/ful1e5/clickgen/discussions/59#discussioncomment-6747666)
-   **2022-06-15:** Docker Image support deprecated due to cross-platform compatibility.
-   **2022-07-09:** :warning: All the **functionality and modules are removed from older versions in `v2.0.0`**.
    I will be restricting any updates to the `>=v1.2.0` versions to security updates and hotfixes.
    Check updated documentations for [building cursors from API](#api-examples) and [CLIs](#usage) usage.

## Requirements

-   Python version 3.7.5 or higher
-   [Pillow](https://pypi.org/project/Pillow) >= 8.1.1
-   [PyYaml](https://pypi.org/project/PyYaml) >= 6.0.1
-   [attrs](https://pypi.org/project/attrs) >= 15.0.0
-   [numpy](https://pypi.org/project/numpy) >= 1.21.6
-   [toml](https://pypi.org/project/toml) >= 0.10.2

## Install

```bash
pip3 install clickgen
```

### Arch Linux

-   [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-clickgen)

## Usage

### `clickgen` CLI

#### Linux Format (XCursor)

For example, if you have to build [ponter.png](https://github.com/ful1e5/clickgen/blob/main/samples/pngs/pointer.png)
file to Linux Format:

```bash
clickgen samples/pngs/pointer.png -x 10 -y 10 -s 22 24 32 -p x11
```

You also **build animated Xcursor** by providing multiple png files to argument and animation delay with `-d`:

```bash
clickgen samples/pngs/wait-001.png samples/pngs/wait-001.png -d 3 -x 10 -y 10 -s 22 24 32 -p x11
```

#### Windows Formats (.cur and .ani)

To build [ponter.png](https://github.com/ful1e5/clickgen/blob/main/samples/pngs/pointer.png)
file to Windows Format (`.cur`):

> **Warning: Windows Animated Cursor only support single size.**

```bash
clickgen samples/pngs/pointer.png -x 10 -y 10 -s 32 -p windows
```

You can also specify the size in the `size:canvas_size` format to enable canvasing:

```bash
clickgen samples/pngs/pointer.png -x 10 -y 10 -s 20:32 -p windows
```

For **animated Windows Cursor** (`.ani`):

```bash
clickgen samples/pngs/wait-001.png samples/pngs/wait-001.png -d 3 -x 10 -y 10 -s 32 -p windows
```

For more information, run `clickgen --help`.

### `ctgen` CLI

This CLI allow you to generate Windows and Linux Cursor themes from config (.toml.yml,and .json) files.

```bash
ctgen sample/sample.json
ctgen sample/sample.toml
ctgen sample/sample.yaml
```

You also provide multiple theme configuration file once as following:

```bash
ctgen sample/sample.toml sample/sample.json
```

Override theme's `name` of theme with `-n` option:

```bash
ctgen sample/sample.toml -n "New Theme"
```

You can run `ctgen --help` to view all available options and you also check
[samples](https://github.com/ful1e5/clickgen/blob/main/samples) directory for more information.

### API Examples

### Static `XCursor`

```python
from clickgen.parser import open_blob
from clickgen.writer import to_x11

with open("samples/pngs/pointer.png", "rb") as p:
    cur = open_blob([p.read()], hotspot=(50, 50))

    # save X11 static cursor
    xresult = to_x11(cur.frames)
    with open("xtest", "wb") as o:
        o.write(xresult)
```

### Animated `XCursor`

```python
from glob import glob
from typing import List

from clickgen.parser import open_blob
from clickgen.writer import to_x11

# Get .png files from directory
fnames = glob("samples/pngs/wait-*.png")
pngs: List[bytes] = []

# Reading as bytes
for f in sorted(fnames):
    with open(f, "rb") as p:
        pngs.append(p.read())

cur = open_blob(pngs, hotspot=(100, 100))

# save X11 animated cursor
result = to_x11(cur.frames)
with open("animated-xtest", "wb") as o:
    o.write(result)
```

### Static `Windows Cursor` (.cur)

```python
from clickgen.parser import open_blob
from clickgen.writer import to_win

with open("samples/pngs/pointer.png", "rb") as p:
    cur = open_blob([p.read()], hotspot=(50, 50))

    # save Windows static cursor
    ext, result = to_win(cur.frames)
    with open(f"test{ext}", "wb") as o:
        o.write(result)
```

### Animated `Windows Cursor` (.ani)

```python
from glob import glob
from typing import List

from clickgen.parser import open_blob
from clickgen.writer import to_win

# Get .png files from directory
fnames = glob("samples/pngs/wait-*.png")
pngs: List[bytes] = []

# Reading as bytes
for f in sorted(fnames):
    with open(f, "rb") as p:
        pngs.append(p.read())

cur = open_blob(pngs, hotspot=(100, 100))

# save Windows animated cursor
ext, result = to_win(cur.frames)
with open(f"test-ani{ext}", "wb") as o:
    o.write(result)
```
