Meme Maker

Create meme drafts from a curated template registry without bundling copyrighted template images.

Quick start

• Search: {baseDir}/scripts/meme.mjs search "bad choice"
• Suggest: {baseDir}/scripts/meme.mjs suggest "slow python image scripts"
• Local SVG: {baseDir}/scripts/meme.mjs render drake --text "Python cold starts" --text "Node sharp cache" --out /tmp/meme.svg
• Local PNG: {baseDir}/scripts/meme.mjs render drake --text "Maybe API" --text "Local render" --out /tmp/meme.png
• Imgflip hosted: {baseDir}/scripts/meme.mjs render drake --service imgflip --text "before" --text "after"

Modes

• local is default. It downloads template images from their source URL with a browser-like user agent, caches them under the user cache dir, embeds the image in an SVG, and writes SVG. If --out ends in .png, it uses sharp when available.
• imgflip calls Imgflip caption_image and prints the hosted URL. It requires IMGFLIP_USER and IMGFLIP_PASS unless supplied via --username and --password.
