Being a workshop organizer and YouTuber means we have to deal with developer community everyday. Everyday I learn new things, recently when I organized a workshop on CSML: Language to build chatbots thought to develop a tool which helps to generate certificates for attendees. Isn't this cool!?

So, how to use it?
First, clone the repo by clicking here
git clone https://github.com/Horizon733/certi-build.git

After installing, just go to your directory where your template certificate is and name excel sheet is. Navigate to your terminal/command prompt and follow below steps:

$ certi-builder build
certificate image path: <your path>
Excel file path:  <your path>
Text color: Hex color code E.g #000000
Font file path: <your path> Please use ttf fonts
Font size: Int E.g 10
Output location:  <your path>
X location: X-axis coords, These you can find in paint
Y location: Y-axis coords, These you can find in paint

If you want attendees name to be bold then follow below steps:

$ certi-builder build --bold
certificate image path: <your path>
Excel file path:  <your path>
Text color: Hex color code E.g #000000
Font file path: <your path> Please use ttf fonts
Font size: Int E.g 10
Output location:  <your path>
X location: X-axis coords, These you can find in paint
Y location: Y-axis coords, These you can find in paint

Upcoming features

  • Support for different kind of files for name extraction
  • Different kinds of text formatting E.g Italic, Underline
  • AI recognization for replacing name in certificate

Some of them are already in development by few contributors

Since, it is Hacktoberfest you can contribute too!
Something made by me👇👇
