Command-Line Usage

Let's use the 100 Ordinal Punks collection to try out the ordbase command-line tool shipping with the ordbase package.

Step 0: Prepare A Tabular Dataset (List) Of All Ordinals w/ ID

For now a manual step - prepare a list of all ordinals with id in the comma-separated values (.csv) tabular dataset format. Example - ordinalpunks/ordinals.csv:

num, id
1, 96d87d7e59d75ebc0e6144b09fdd96355fcdaa86fd098d64c46f19a424012bbei0
2, acda637db995df796b35035fd978cc1a947f1e6fd5215968da88b7e38a7e4b37i0
3, 0406654dffdd01a49794bd8531bf33721986cc7c6546f871962adee921a39a9di0

Step 1: Download All Pixel Art Images Via Ordinals.com

Use

$ ordbase ordinalpunks image   # or
$ ordbase ordinalpunks img

to download all images via the ordinals.com (web) service. All images get stored in the (temporary) token-i/ directory. Resulting in:

/ordinalpunks
   ordinals.csv
   /token-i
     1.png
     2.png
     3.png
     ...

...

Step 2: Downsample ("Pixelate") All Pixel Art Images

Note: Most pixel art collections upload / inscribe images with a zoom. The ordinal punks, for example, use a 8x zoom factor for the 24×24px originals, thus, resulting in 192×192px.

Add a "artbase-compatible" collection configuration file to lists the source format(s) and the minimal true pixel format. Example - ordinalpunks/collection.yml:

slug:       ordinalpunks
count:      100
format:     24x24
source:     192x192
offset:     1

Use

$ ordbase ordinalpunks pixelate   # or
$ ordbase ordinalpunks px

to downsample ("pixelate") all images in the (temporary) token-i/ directory. Resulting in a 24x24/ directory with all images in the "minimal" 24x24 format:

/ordinalpunks
   ordinals.csv
   collections.yml
   /24x24
     1.png
     2.png
     3.png
     ...

...

Bonus: Step 3: Make An All-In-One Collect'Em All Composite Image

Use

$ ordbase ordinalpunks composite   # or
$ ordbase ordinalpunks comp

to make an all-in-one image composite for the complete collection. Resulting in /tmp/ordinalpunks.png (~11kb).

That's it for now.

Bonus: More Ordinal Pixel Art Collections

See the Ordinals (Pixel Art) Sandbox (& Cache) for more collections incl. Bitcoin Punks (24×24), Ordinal Mini Doges (24×24), Extra Ordinal Women (32×32), Ordinal Penguins (35×35), Ordinal Birds (42×42), Bitcoin Bears (48×48) and much more.
