Create a frame of Greek Key (Meander) design in SVG format.

This is a Rust crate for creating both rectangle and circle border designs of the Greek Key (Meander).

Images

Here are some examples of the images that can be generated:

Rectangle

Circle

Install

cargo install greek-meander

Usage

General Options

Option	Description	Default
stroke-width	The width of the stroke	6.0
stroke-color	The color of the stroke	"#AB8E0E"
stroke-opacity	The opacity of the stroke	0.7
border-margin	The margin of the border	1
file	The base name of the output file	"meander"

Rectangle

To generate a rectangle meander design, use the rect command:

meander rect --size <SIZE> --width <WIDTH> --height <HEIGHT>

Options

Option	Description	Default
size	The size of the greek key cells	25
width	The number of cells for the top and bottom borders	16
height	The number of cells for the left and right borders	9

Example

meander --stroke-color "blue" --file "my_design" rect --size 12 --width 22 --height 14

This will generate a my_design_rect.svg file.

Circle

To generate a circle meander design, use the circle command:

meander circle --radius <RADIUS> --pattern-count <PATTERN_COUNT>

Options

Option	Description	Default
radius	The radius of the circle	300.0
pattern-count	The number of patterns in the circle	30

Example

meander --stroke-color "red" --file "my_circle_design" circle --radius 120 --pattern-count 24

This will generate a my_circle_design_circle.svg file.
