React Gatsby static web tool for generative artists working on hash based art

token-art-tools

React Gatsby static web tool for generative artists working on hash based art (ex: Artblocks)

Using the Application

Include this in the head of your index.html file

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/ctrlshiftmake/token-art-tools@main/providers/artblocks.js"></script>

Then use the token hash provided by that script to drive features in your artwork

var hash = tokenData.hash;

Host your generative artwork script via a local HTTP server, for example:

python -m http.server 5500

Paste the URL of your local server into the web application

http://localhost:5500

Have fun creating with the available features in the web application!

Projects Setup

Your index.html file must display your work within a single canvas tag for all features to work.

P5.js

Standard project setup should work.

THREE.js

Please set the following in your script for screenshots to work.

 renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer({ preserveDrawingBuffer: true });

Automation Features

CSV Features Report

To use the CSV Features Report option, assign a key-value pair dictionary to the provided features global variable. Do not use let or set in your script, as it's already defined and will throw an error. This application waits 600 ms before polling for the features, so it's ideal to set these as early as possible in your script (ex: features first, draw second).

Example features assignment:

features = {
    Palette: "Blue Sky",
    Style: "Shadow",
    Size: 10,
}

Usage Tips

Automation features sometime requiring increasing the wait amount to allow the browser time to render to buffers and re-allocate memory. If you get odd results, try increasing this value.
