Automatic Pattern Generation

<p>Hi Folks</p> <p>For a project of mine I wanted a service which automatically generates a unique and identifiable pattern based on an initial input seed. I decided to take the opportunity and use it to learn Go.</p> <p>I ended up using the <a href="https://github.com/llgcode/draw2d">draw2d</a> library which works quite well.</p> <p>Here&#39;s a small writeup: <a href="http://gabetaubman.com/projects/patterns/">http://gabetaubman.com/projects/patterns/</a></p> <p>Hope you find it interesting!</p> <hr/>**评论：**<br/><br/>FogleMonster: <pre><p>Nice! Just curious, did you consider using cairo?</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/ungerik/go-cairo" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/ungerik/go-cairo</a></p></pre>SuperGabe: <pre><p>Absolutely! In fact, it was my initial choice, as it&#39;s what I&#39;m more familiar with.</p> <p>The major deciding factor was ease of installation (funnily enough). I do development on a mac, and getting Cairo installed there has presented problems in the past (my installation of Mac Ports seems to be busted). So, I went with a library that was easier to install on both my mac and the linux machine I use.</p></pre>FogleMonster: <pre><p>As a fellow Mac user, let me suggest that you use <a href="http://brew.sh/" rel="nofollow">Homebrew</a> and not MacPorts!</p> <pre><code>brew install cairo </code></pre> <p>Then I had to do this to install go-cairo...</p> <pre><code>export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig go get github.com/ungerik/go-cairo </code></pre></pre>SuperGabe: <pre><p>I&#39;m a big fan of Homebrew :). Unfortunately it suffers the same permission problems as Mac Ports. (As far as I can tell permissions of various directories keep getting changed to ones that it doesn&#39;t like.)</p></pre>
