Creates a collage (grid) of product images for each product in an amazon.com order history report.

I thought it would be interesting to make a "consumer yearbook" of sorts showing a year's worth of Amazon activity. It's nostalgic and #mildlyinteresting.

• Clone this repo

• Install Dependencies npm install

• Generate an order history report from your Amazon account

• Save your order history report CSV to your computer

• Download product images

  • node get-photos.js /path/to/your/order-history-report.csv
  • product images will be saved in product_images/

• Assemble your collage!

  • node assemble-collage
  • Your collage will be saved in output/amazon-collage.jpg
  • An HTML grid version of your collage will be saved in output/index.html

• Build Heatmap

  • npm run build will ask you for path of Amazon CSV file. Put assets in output folder
  • npm run serve will serve the contents in output

You can customize the following layout properties in assemble-collage.js:

• gridWidth - the number of columns in the collage
• cellPadding - the padding around each product image (pixels)
• imageDimension - the dimensions (square) of the product images
• outputPadding - the padding around the outside of the collage (pixels)

get-photos.js parses the csv, pulling the ASIN/ISBN value for each product. It then GETs the product's page from amazon.com, parses the html with cheerio, grabs the first product image and saves it in product_images/

assemble-collage.js puts the images together into an web page with a strict grid layout, loads it in a headless browser, and saves an image.
