Screen{shot,cast} and perform ImageOps on the command line 🌱 🏞️


menyokiis a screencast and screenshot utility that can also perform various image related operations such as making/splitting GIFs and modifying/analyzing/viewing image files. It aims to be a lightweight command line tool for either helping out on day-to-day life operations or complicated detail-centric issues. Originally it was designed to record/screenshot terminal windows but it can be tweaked easily for other purposes with command line arguments, environment variables, or a configuration file.

Table of Contents

Supported Platforms

  • Linux
  • Windows (no record/capture)
  • macOS (no record/capture)

menyokirequires a window systemimplementationof the supported platform forrecordandcaptureactions. Other features are expected to work normally since they don't require a window system running (or grabbing a window to operate on). For example, despite the macOS is not listed as a supported platform,menyokistill can perform image operations such asedit,analyzeandviewif it's compiled on macOS.

Features

Usage

Action
Result

Command line arguments ofmenyokiare designed to be as intuitive as possible. As a result of that, an action can be performed with a chain of subcommands along with the flags and options. The general prototype for the usage of command line arguments is the following:

menyoki (ACTION) (FORMAT) (OUTPUT)

The subcommand that will indicate theactionis mandatory whereasformatandoutputsubcommands might be optional (or they might not exist at all). Theformatsubcommand can be one of the supported formats andoutputbasically corresponds to thesavesubcommand.

The defaultformatis the first listed subcommand if there is not any subcommand given for specifying aformat.On the other hand,savesubcommand uses the "menyoki" directory in thehome(orimagesif it exists) as the default output directory.

General

Flags and options that will generally affect the execution ofmenyokican be set before specifying the main action to perform. Then the main subcommand (action) must be specified.

menyoki [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] <SUBCOMMAND>

Arguments

FLAGS:

Record

menyokican record an area of a window or the whole screen and encode it as a supported format. Area selection and resize is performed with the key bindings.

A few scenarios thatrecordaction might be helpful would be:

Key Bindings

Key bindings are only used and present whilecaptureorrecordactions are performed. Essentially key bindings are for selecting capture/record areas and resizing them without any mouse interaction.

There are 3 types of key bindings in terms of performed action:

  • Action keys (main action keys such asLAlt-S,can becustomizedvia--action-keysand--cancel-keysoptions)
  • Cancel keys (the keys that will cancel the operation, e.g.LControl-D)
  • Miscellaneous keys (the keys that can be used for resizing the selected area such asLAlt-[up])
Key Action
LAlt-[S/Enter] Start/stop recording or screenshot the selected area
LControl-D, Escape Cancel the current operation
LControl-C Cancel the current operation or stop recording
LAlt-[arrow keys/hjkl] Increase the area padding (decrease the size of the area)
LControl-LAlt-[arrow keys/hjkl] Decrease the area padding (increase the size of the area)
LShift-LAlt-[arrow keys/hjkl] Reposition the selected area (move around)
LAlt-[1-9] Set the speed factor of changing the area size (default: 3)
LAlt-R Reset the area padding to default

key bindings

Configuration

It's possible to override the default command line arguments with a configuration file. It can be specified via--configoption or$MENYOKI_CONFIGenvironment variable. Also, it can be placed to a location wheremenyokilooks for as default:

  • {CONFIG_DIR}/menyoki.conf
  • {CONFIG_DIR}/menyoki/menyoki.conf
  • {CONFIG_DIR}/menyoki/config

{CONFIG_DIR}can be one of the following depending on the platform:

  • Linux:$XDG_CONFIG_HOMEor$HOME/.config
    • e.g./home/orhun/.config
  • macOS:$HOME/Library/Application Support
    • e.g./Users/Orhun/Library/Application Support
  • Windows:{FOLDERID_RoamingAppData}
    • e.g.C:\Users\Orhun\AppData\Roaming

About the project

Why "menyoki"?

It's a reference to theauthor's favorite character from the gamePatapon 2.

https://patapon.fandom.com/wiki/Menyokki?file=Moriussoo_evo.jpg

Menyokki(akaTree-Pondue to his resembling a tree) is a type ofRareponintroduced inPatapon 2.Its evolved form isKisuk,and its ultimate form isMoriussoo.These Rarepons are green and resemble plants in various stages of development: Menyokki is a seedling, Kisuk is a sapling and Moriussoo is a full-grown tree.

The Menyokki sprite that is used as the project's logo was originally drawn byOwocekTVfor the fan made gamePatafour.He is also the creator and lead developer of Patafour and he is working on bringing the long awaited 4th installment of the Patapon franchise to life with the rest of the team.

Thanks toowodzegfor his hard work onPatafourand the help with themenyokilogo. Kudos!
