Stream-Deck Key-Image Generator

SDKIG is a small utility for generating key images for Elgato Stream Deck devices. The key images are generated with a size of 288x288 pixels (similar to the official online Key Creator, although the device seems to downscale them to just 72x72 pixels) and are rendered with the combination of a prominent centered FontAwesome icon and a small TypoPRO Source Sans Pro based title at the bottom. The colors of the background, the icon and the title can be choosen through arbitrary RGB values.

$ npm install -g sdkig

Unfortunately, this utility needs a licensed PrinceXML prince(1) and the free Poppler pdftocairo(1) utilities in the shell PATH. PrinceXML is needed for rendering the internally generated HTML to the intermediate PDF format. Poppler is needed for rendering the intermediate PDF to the PNG output format.

Usage: sdkig [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [-b|--background-color <rgb-color>]
[-i|--icon-name <name>] [-I|--icon-color <rgb-color>] [-s|--subicon-name <name>]
[-S|--subicon-color <rgb-color>] [-t|--title-text <text>] [-T|--title-color
<rgb-color>] [-f|--title-font <typopro-font-id>] [-o|--output-file <png-file>]
