Simple module for creating placeholder images

install by

$ pip install python-placeholder

Example:

from placeholder import PlaceHolderImage
img = PlaceHolderImage(width = 300, height = 200, path = 'placeholder.png')
img.save_image()

Known bugs:

• if you do not provide absolute path to font to PlaceHolderImage the default font used will have very small size.
• if you get something like The _imagingft C module is not installed, look here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4011705/python-the-imagingft-c-module-is-not-installed

Run tests:

You can run the testsuite with the following command:

python -m unittest tests

Or use tox to test against all supported python versions.
