Pillow的安装和使用

需要把一段文字转换成图片，我找到了PIL（Python Imaging Library）库，专门干这个用的。还有一个Pillow是“friendly PIL fork”，于是我选择了后者。

安装过程稍有曲折，主要是要先把它的依赖库安装就绪，再装Pillow，过程如下：

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"  # 安装brew
sudo easy_install pip #安装pip
brew install libzip   # 安装libzip
ln -s /usr/local/include/freetype2 /usr/local/include/freetype
ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10..sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Headers/X11 /usr/local/include/X11

sudo pip install pillow  # 安装pillow

刚开始我在没有安装libzip和freetype之前，直接安装了pillow，会报出如下错误：

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10..sdk/usr/include/tk.h::: fatal error:
      'X11/Xlib.h' file not found
#       include <X11/Xlib.h>
                ^
 error generated.
error: command 'cc' failed with exit status 

    font = PIL.ImageFont.truetype('Helvetical', )
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line , in truetype
    return FreeTypeFont(filename, size, index, encoding)
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line , in __init__
    self.font = core.getfont(file, size, index, encoding)
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line , in __getattr__
    raise ImportError("The _imagingft C module is not installed")
ImportError: The _imagingft C module is not installed

IOError: encoder zip not available

将前面的依赖库安装就绪之后，这些问题就都解决了。

写段代码如下：

import    loggingimport    PIL.Image
import    PIL.ImageDraw
import    PIL.ImageFont

class    Main(object):
    def text2png(self, text, fontName, fontSize, pngPath):
        font = PIL.ImageFont.truetype(fontName, fontSize)
        width, height = font.getsize(text)
        logging.debug('(width, height) = (%d, %d)' % (width, height))
        image = PIL.Image.new('RGBA', (width, height), (0, 0, 0, 0))  # 设置透明背景
        draw = PIL.ImageDraw.Draw(image)
        draw.text((0, 0), text, font = font, fill = '#000000')
        image.save(pngPath)

    def    Main(self):
        text = u' ^_^ '
        fontName = '/Library/Fonts/华文黑体.ttf'
        pngPath = 'test.png'
        self.text2png(text, fontName, 37, pngPath)

即可将字符' ^_^ '转为图片，如下
