Quick Start Guide

Welcome to the Book repository quick start guide.

Note: This guide covers automation setup and script usage. For conceptual material on systems initialization and context, see Start.md.

Working with Nano Banana Prompts

The repository contains extensive lists of "Nano Banana" prompts which can be executed efficiently in parallel using the automation scripts in src/.

Local automation setup

  1. Create or activate a Python environment

    • Ensure Python 3.8 or higher is installed.
    • Recommended: 
      python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

  2. Install the shared dependencies

    pip install -r requirements.txt

  3. Optional Google integrations

    • Export GEMINI_API_KEY, or place .GEMINI_KEY one level above the repo root.
    • For YouTube uploads, place client_secret.json one level above the repo root.

Quick single generation

Run from the repo root:

python src/nano_banana_api.py --prompt "Do unto others"

Generating lists of images in parallel

You can point the automation script directly at markdown files (using the :: delimiter) or the YAML configuration template in inputs/.

# From a double-colon delimited markdown file:
./src/nano_banana.sh --file "Nano-Banana-Prompts-CP.md" --format "delimited" --workers 10

# Using the canonical YAML file from the inputs directory:
./src/nano_banana.sh --file "inputs/nano-prompts-full.yml" --format "yaml" --section Fakhran

Outputs are stored in the repo-level images/ directory by default.

Optional 16:9 / YouTube flows

python src/gemini_yt_creator.py --help
python src/youtube_uploader.py --help

For more detailed script usage, see src/README.md.
