Beardify — Lemoji beard structure text generator #436

Open gustavwilliam opened 4 years ago

gustavwilliam commented 4 years ago

Description

A command that would let the user easily convert text to a beard structure, using the beard structure lemojis.

Here's PyDis using the beard structure, in a Discord channel!

Reasoning

Being able to write with lemoji beard, without having to reinvent the characters every time, would be fantastic.

Proposed Implementation

A command like .beardify <text> could be used. SeasonalBot would return the text, written using the beard structure lemojis. Since the beard lemojis are available in the server, it would be easy to copy+paste the text yourself. If it gets too wide to fit, the beardified text could be returned as a png instead.

Only alpha numerical or ASCII would be allowed as a start.

Would you like to implement this yourself?

gustavwilliam commented 4 years ago

TL;DR: I've begun implementing this myself.

I have a few updates to the implementation of it:

I'll write more about the custom emoji font format soon, if anyone is interested in contributing with more fonts!

I've communicated with @gustavwilliam. This is still in the works, and is a bit on hold.

I hope this feature works out, very cool stuff.
