Image support
rashil2000 opened this issue · comments
I think it would be pretty cool if Poketex could show a pixelated, bitmap like sprite of the Pokemon, besides the stats table, on the left side of it. Browsing through Serebii, I found that it's pretty easy to fetch the image. Since most terminals don't support full-res image rendering, a low-res icon could be used instead. The links can be constructed in this way:
- Low-res -
https://www.serebii.net/pokedex-sv/icon/<id>.png - High-res -
https://www.serebii.net/pokemon/art/<id>.png
where <id> is the global Pokedex number of that Pokemon.
Thanks for the issue. I'll take a look at it sometime.
I've issued a release to support images, currently using the ansi image source, but it's only supported up to 8th gen at the moment, pending an upstream update.
It looks great! Thanks for implementing this.
Should I close the issue?
If you think it's okay, you can close it. Thank you.
