# ok-zoomer

Every GIF is a gift.

![](assets/smooth_face_zoom.gif)

## How it works

* face detection with [esimov/pigo](https://github.com/esimov/pigo)

* color quantization / dithering with [esimov/colorquant](https://github.com/esimov/colorquant)

* image resizing with [nfnt/resize](https://github.com/nfnt/resize)

* text message API with [twilio](https://www.twilio.com/)

* hosted on an [AWS EC2 instance](https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/)

* served with [nginx](https://www.nginx.com/)

* SSL with [let's encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/)

## TODO

* write tests

* port to Go modules

* allow text message-passed parameters like number of frames, delay, and number of faces to detect

* put it on an AWS Lambda to make it more scalable, then release the twilio number into the wild

* 

* add the possibility of rate limiting by using redis to store which gifs were made by which phone numbers, whitelist my own number

* clean up this code, it was my first Go project so the code is pretty sloppy

* less manual deployment and check in nginx + supervisor conf in this repo
