# Le Meme

A tool for making dank memes!

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'le_meme'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install le_meme

If you're getting extconf errors or something like that, make sure you have ImageMagick installed.

## Usage

### I WANT A MEME NOW!
Use the command-line tool, `meme`:

```sh
meme 'i want a' 'dank meme'
```

### I want to see the command line options
You can do most meme-ish things from the command-line. It has interactive help at `meme -h`.
Should be straightforward enough for even the dankest memer.

### I want to make memes in my ruby application
Easy enough!

#### Using a template
```ruby
require 'le_meme'
LeMeme::MemeLib.new_with_default_memes.meme(template: 'maymay', top: 'Top text', bottom: 'Bottom Text').to_file
```

#### Using any old image

```ruby
require 'le_meme'
LeMeme::Meme.new('~/Desktop/to_be_memed.jpg', top: 'Top text', bottom: 'bottom text').to_file
```

See the [docs](http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/le_meme) for all the memetastic details

## WHY?
Because the world needs more dank memes!

Actually, because I wanted to take some time and clean up the core of [memebot](http://github.com/paradox460/memebot), and figured making the essential meme generation a gem was the best way to do it. Now I can spam my coworkers with memes in hipchat as well.
