Clani

Clani is a commandline program for any Linux distro written in C/C++, which can display different (noise) algorithms and effects with ascii characters using ncurses. This allows for some cool scrolling patterns and other animation effects. The purpose of this project is not well defined and just something I work on by the side for fun.

Make Your Choice!

You can choose from different flavours and apply a variety of effects on them.

Scrolling Cellular Voronoi Pattern

An endless scrolling cellular Voronoi pattern for example!

ZigZag Simple Voronoi Pattern

Or how about this simple, but eyecatching zigzag effect you can apply onto every pattern.

Setup

Here I'm providing a little explanation on how to get clani running on your system:

Dependencies

The project uses CMake v3.7.2 and C++14. Requires ncurses library!

CMake-3.7.2

Arch Linux distros:

$ sudo pacman -S cmake 

Debian distros:

$ sudo apt-get install cmake

ncurses

Arch Linux distros:

$ sudo pacman -S ncurses

Debian distros:

$ sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev

Building

Clone the repository or download the zip file into a directory of your choice

$ git clone https://github.com/hu-ry/CLiAni.git

Generate build files in the ${build-root} directory you cloned the repository to

$ cd ${build-root}
$ cmake -E make_directory build
$ cmake -E chdir build cmake ..
$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G "CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles" ${build-root}

Building the binary in ${build-root}/build directory

$ cmake --build ${build-root}/build --target clani -- -j 4

And you are DONE! The executable should be in ${build-root}/build as "clani".

RUN

$ ./clani
