Flask is a prerequisite:

— the SwarmGenerator now actually creates the svg images
We embedded the shoebot script.
It does take a long while to download the images though…
even though the files are tiny…
Maybe wikipedia throttles us becuse of the large amount of requests?
Have to look into this.
many thanks to tian2992 for helping me out with embedding Shoebot

Should be more easy to bugfix and reuse now.
The refactoring solved none of the bugs of the script though.
Also: user/agent Ḿozilla -> Mozilla

— Text input via webinterface works now!
The errors were in the line bot.text(etc.)
Somehow Shoebot doesn’t throw errors here…
There was a division by zero among other errors
A good moment to throw in the new code that works a bit differently:
Type size is vertical space divided by number of lines,
than the lines of the text are stretched horizontally to fit.

— Quite some bug fixes, SVG output still broken—switch to PNG
It currently outputs PNG.
View:
Make all the input UPPERCASE
Swarmbot:
Added square option (defaults to true).
When True, will output a 1:1 aspect ratio.
When False, will output a 1:sqr(2) ratio.
2 text splitlines bugs fixed
Use .splitlines() instead of .split('\n') to allow different control characters
Remove empty lines to avoid divisionbyzero error
Smaller lineheight
Fill up collage:
If there are less than 32 source images, repeat existing up until 32
Text over image, instead of the other way around
TODO: text stil appears grey
TODO: fix unicode bug in urlquoting http://127.0.0.1:5000/Category%3ABook%20illustrations

Eric Schrijverbabbled out
— Don’t cache.
Not caching makes it possible for you to change output size
and text, and not having to reload twice.
Yet changing the collage colour is still not updated.
It is updated on the server though. So apparently the swarmbot
script uses a cached representation of these images?
Also, Pango requires an integer image size
Also, I’m now using my given name in git

— The only way to fix the svg bug is to write around it
So we kept running into svg bugs.
The bug report:
http://bugs.shoebot.net/issue25
We did not have time to wait for it to be fixed—
and due to the tight coupling with Cairo Shoebot
is too complicated for us to fix.
So for now we wrote around it, using another library,
svgwrite, to generate the SVG. Since we still
use Shoebot to calculate the textwidth, our
solution is quite convoluted now.
But it will have to do for now!
In this version I also added proper sizing according
to the size parameters given in the interface.
