Go Animate Coin

This script will take a circular image, say a coin, and rotate it in the perspective towards you as if the coin is being spun around clockwise facing you.

I wanted to create a GIF animation of a new XPMarket.com meme coin called $APARIO and I couldn't find anything online so I built one.

I used Claude AI to help me debug the transformFrame func, but overall, it was a fun exercise that took me a few hours to do and I am happy to share it with you under the MIT License so you may use it as well.

Sample

From	To
-input sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.png	-output sample/apario-xrp-coin@144.gif
Transparent PNG Image	Animated GIF Image

View $APARIO on XRP Ledger via XPMarket.com

Install

go install github.com/andreimerlescu/go-animate-coin@latest

Or use GitLab if GitHub is unavailable (it's now owned by Microsoft, so it happens often now):

go install gitlab.com/andreimerlescu/go-animate-coin@latest

Usage

[~/go-animate-coin]$ ./go-animate-coin -help
Usage of ./go-animate-coin:
  -input string
    	Path to input PNG image

Override in action

When you supply an -output path that already exists, you'll receive an error...

[~/go-animate-coin]$ ./go-animate-coin -input sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.png -output sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.gif
File sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.gif already exists. Overwrite? [y/N]: n
2024/12/23 10:39:08 operation cancelled by user

When you pass the -y flag in this case, you won't get this prompt.

[~/go-animate-coin]$ ./go-animate-coin -input sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.png -output sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.gif -y
Animation saved to sample/apario-xrp-coin@144px.gif
