Yes, it's a terrible name. Image gridder it quite a specific tool for organising a group of images in a directory into a grid so they can sit together in one complete image.
I wanted a system where I could pass any number and size of images to it and it would return one combined image. I kept making this over and over for specific projects so it made sense to wrap it up into it's own repo, so rather than constantly copy and tweak code this can be used.
Instantiation can be seen in the example_runs file, but in essence the system
works like this:
- First, create a folder of images
- Instantiate
ImageGrid()passing the directory and any other configurable args (see image_grid.ImageGrid for args) - All the images in the directory are resized to a new image with the dimensions of the largest image size in the original directory.
- Given the amount of images, a grid size is worked out
- The resized images are then placed left to right on the grid.
- A new single image is then created and saved.
See ./example_runs.py for example code for the below images
An image grid made up from 4 equal sized images
An image grid made up of 4 different sized images
An image grid made up of 9 images
An image grid made up of 100 equal images
