DalleCli 💠

dallecli is a community-maintained cli designed to provide users with the ability to generate, edit and filter images using the DALL-E 3 API provided by OpenAI, all from the command line.

The tool provides three main commands, generate, edit, and filter.

The generate command allows the user to generate an image using a prompt, with the option to apply a filter, specify the size, and choose the number of times to generate the image. The generated image can also be saved to a specified file path.

The edit command provides the ability to edit an existing image by adjusting the brightness, contrast, and sharpness of the image. The edited image is then saved to a new file.

The filter command allows users to apply various filters and effects to an existing image. The user can select from a range of different filters, and the filtered image can be saved to a specified file path.

This is ideal for developers, designers, and anyone who wants to quickly generate and manipulate images without the need for a full-fledged image editing software. I hope you find it useful.

Note

The image generations endpoint allows you to create an original image given a text prompt. When using DALL·E 3, images can have a size of 1024x1024, 1024x1792 or 1792x1024 pixels.

By default, images are generated at standard quality, but when using DALL·E 3 you can set quality: "hd" for enhanced detail. Square, standard quality images are the fastest to generate.

You can request 1 image at a time with DALL·E 3 (request more by making parallel requests)

Configuration

The cli requires you to have an api token to query the OpenAI's api. You can read about and get it here https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys.

Installation

Install the dallecli python package directly from pypi.

  pip install dallecli

I would recommend using pipx instead of pip to install cli applications on you machine.
