A multimedia application to dynamically generate quotes for supplied images. Accessed through CLI and a web interface (flask)
- The application interacts with a variety of complex filetypes. (PDF, Word Documents, CSVs, Text files). It implements a Strategy Pattern to offer flexibility of adding/editing new file types.
- it loads, manipulates, and saves images.
- it integrates extracted text from the files with the images
- it accepts dynamic user input through a command-line tool and a web service.
The project is structured in two main modules MemeEngine and QuoteEngine and two main invoking programs api.py and meme.py to support web & CLI interfaces, respectively.
