# void.php

|
|
|
This artistic marvel is designed to generate avant-garde ASCII art images and post them to your Mastodon account. Because the internet clearly doesn't have enough random character sets and pseudo-profound status messages already.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Random ASCII Art Generation**: Converts a completely random set of characters into a visually chaotic masterpiece.
|
|
- **Image Creation**: Turns the ASCII art into an image with the always-necessary inverted colors.
|
|
- **Text Overlay**: Adds stylish text overlays to remind viewers of the insightful nature of the message.
|
|
- **Mastodon Integration**: Uploads your new art to Mastodon to grace your followers with digital enlightenment.
|
|
- **Random Status Generator**: Picks a random status from a list to accompany your masterpiece.
|

|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
1. **Clone the Repository**
|
|
Clone this repository to your local machine using:
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://git.cyberwa.re/revengeday/void.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Font Dependency**
|
|
Ensure that the `BlockZone.ttf` font file is available in the script's directory, or modify the path in the script to point to the correct location.
|
|
|
|
3. **Setup API Keys**
|
|
Replace the placeholder text for the Mastodon API access token with your valid access token:
|
|
```php
|
|
$accessToken = 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE';
|
|
```
|
|
Also, set your instance URL:
|
|
```php
|
|
$instance = 'https://your.mastodon.instance';
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. **Create a Status File**
|
|
If you want customized statuses, create a `post.txt` file in the script's directory, with each line representing a potential status message.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
- Access your script via a web browser. It should render your randomly generated works of art as an image when you provide the correct key:
|
|
```
|
|
https://yourserver.com/void.php?key=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- If you provide the correct key and have configured your Mastodon API token, it will automatically post the generated image along with a randomly chosen status to your Mastodon account.
