mandala

5 motifs. Import them from geomotif.motifs, or build one by name with registry.create("kaleidoscope").

kaleidoscope

One motif, repeated under a cyclic or dihedral symmetry group.

PythonCommand lineSpec

from geomotif import save_svg
from geomotif.core import registry

# This motif's example takes values that are themselves objects, so it
# reads better through the registry than as a constructor call.
motif = registry.create("kaleidoscope", **registry.describe("kaleidoscope").example)
save_svg(motif.build(), "kaleidoscope.svg", width=320, height=320)

geomotif render kaleidoscope --out kaleidoscope.svg
