Install for Linux

The sofware require the two following dependencies:

apt install ffmpeg
apt install gifsicle

Then here is how you can install gifme:

base_url='https://github.com/mrauer/gifme/releases/download/v1.0.0'
curl -Lo gifme "$base_url"/gifme_1.0.0_linux_amd64 && \
chmod +x gifme && sudo mv gifme /usr/local/bin

Install for Mac

Install the dependencies (we assume you have brew):

brew install ffmpeg
brew install gifsicle

Run the following command:

base_url='https://github.com/mrauer/gifme/releases/download/v1.0.0'
curl -Lo gifme "$base_url"/gifme_1.0.0_darwin_amd64 && \
chmod +x gifme && sudo mv gifme /usr/local/bin

Usage

Usage is platform agnostic:

gifme --input <path-to-your-video-file>

This will generate an optimized gif file named output.gif at the location you ran that command.

Currently only supporting .mp4 files.
