CoolText

A small Python helper for generating images using CoolText's PostChange API. This repository wraps CoolText form options in a simple data model, posts the configuration to CoolText, and returns the rendered image URL.

Example

• Result with logo id - 4618063429:

• Result with logo id - 8:

• Result with logo id - 2975689126:

• Result with logo id - 829964308:

• Result with logo id - 732453157:

• Result with logo id - 1779834160:

...And Many More Are Here...

Features

• Build payloads using a typed pydantic model.
• Merge user-provided options with a logo's defaults from logo-id.json.
• Manage HTTP requests and return the final render URL.

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• See requirements.txt for exact package versions.

Installation

Install dependencies with pip:

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

If you prefer a virtual environment:

python -m venv .venv
.
\venv\Scripts\activate   # Windows
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Quick Start

1. Ensure logo-id.json is present in the repository root. This file maps LogoID values to their CoolText page links and default form values. The repository includes a generated logo-id.json (see logo-id.py for the scraper used to produce it).
2. Edit main.py or create your own script using the library.

Example minimal usage (same logic as in main.py):

from modules import CoolText, PostChangeConfigOptions

config = PostChangeConfigOptions(LogoID="732440996", Text="Hello World")
print(CoolText(config).create())

Running the example:

python main.py

The script will print a URL where the rendered image can be downloaded.

Configuration and API details

• PostChangeConfigOptions (defined in modules.py) exposes the familiar CoolText form fields: LogoID, Text, FontSize, FileFormat, BackgroundColor_color, and many optional color/boolean/integer fields. The model uses sensible defaults from constants.DefaultValues when values are not provided.
• CoolText.create() workflow:
  • Loads the logo metadata and defaults from logo-id.json.
  • Fetches the CoolText logo page (to satisfy referer/session expectations).
  • Posts the combined payload to CoolText's /PostChange endpoint.
  • Parses and returns the render URL from the JSON response.

If the request fails or a response cannot be parsed, create() returns None and logs a message via the logging module.

How to find a LogoID

Just hop on to https://cool-text-thehritu.vercel.app for list of logos and their ids and other configs.

Development

• Run the example locally (python main.py).
• Add or modify PostChangeConfigOptions in modules.py if you need to support additional CoolText parameters.
• Logging is used for error and debug messages; enable or configure the logging module in your own scripts as needed.
