new option --template <scan>

Providing an API to play around with flutter quickly (no flutter experience yet, so imho the simple polaroidme core can just be exposed via webapi first) This is quick'n'easy to implement with Django+DjangoREST. But because i know this works fine maybe it is time to try something new (for me). A micro framework like bottle or flask should be fine enough and makes sense here imho.

To not "pollute" this repo with stuff which doesn't belong to the core the following repo is set up:

Shots by smartphone often include a bunch of usefull EXIF-data to play around with so let's use them if available (contactsheet filtering-by criteria location, maps, ...)

intended workflow: scan an envelope/texture/whatever, run a script to cut out a template from the provided scan as high-res a possible & also writes a suiting config

• implement sorting & filtering options (e.g. filtering for a specified timewindow) based on EXIF-data
• implement a random N select function based on EXIF-data -
  Helps rediscovering (old) gems / memories of a huge Photo library :) Could also be automated for something like "n Pictures of the day n Years ago" (EXIF parsing) and alike

pictures should be put into any (square) frame defined. doesn't have to be polaroid-scans.
for example: living-room, exhibition-room, public-place, ... are some ideas. only completely free (like in freedom - not like in free beer) templates will be included! unsplash could be a source for example.

repo for templates:

Producing Input by making webqueries / webapicalls to google-images, flickr, instagram or alike.

At the moment the font can be changed by setting a symlink. A more convenient way would be providing an argument like --font=<path2font> or --font <path2font> for choosing a font.

write a flutter app using webapis and/or imageprocessing with dart (?).

(continously) review and adopt some filter-functions which doesn't require a dependency hell - just keep the stuff as simple and as usefull as possible. Means: no fancy great stuff like OpenCV, DeepDreams or so here... (maintainability)

please add any suggestion of things to review / include to this issue.

Before v1.0 release generators & filters must be written as plugins which are easy to add/remove without any need of touching the code.
