Squib
Squib is a ruby DSL for prototyping card and board games. Think of it like nanDeck done "the Ruby way". Start with some basic commands and generate print-ready PNGs and PDFs. Squib supports complex text rendering, reading PNGs and SVGs, reading from ExcelX files, and shape drawing. Plus, you have the full power of Ruby behind you.
Check it out!
require 'squib'
Squib::Deck.new(width: 825, height: 1125, cards: 3) do
background color: [1.0,1.0,1.0]
data = xlsx file: 'sample.xlsx'
rect x: 15, y: 15, width: 795, height: 1095, x_radius: 50, y_radius: 50
text str: data['name'], x: 250, y: 55, font: 'Arial 54'
text str: data['level'], x: 65, y: 40, font: 'Arial 72'
png file: 'icon.png', x: 665, y: 30
save format: :png
end
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'squib'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install squib
Note: Squib has some native dependencies, such as Cairo and Pango, and Nokogiri, which all require DevKit to compile C code. This is usually not painful, but on some setups can cause headaches. For Windows users, I highly recommend using [http://rubyinstaller.org/].
Development
Squib is currently in pre-release alpha, so the API is still maturing. If you are using Squib, however, I'd love to hear about it! Feel free to file a bug if you find any.
API
API docs to be written. The samples directory for in-depth examples.
