SocialMediaImageAutomation

Social Media Image Automation is an open source Python tool designed to streamline the creation of multiple marketing and social media images at scale. It accepts CSV data sources as input, enabling users to automate the generation of image variations without manual design work. The tool is built for marketers, content creators, and businesses that need to produce consistent, data-driven imagery for campaigns across multiple platforms. By connecting CSV data directly to image generation, it reduces production time and eliminates repetitive design tasks.

["Prepare your data: Create a CSV file with columns for text overlays, image paths, and any dynamic elements (e.g., discounts, hashtags). Ensure filenames match the images in your assets folder.","Choose a template: Select or design a Canva/Figma template that supports dynamic data insertion (e.g., text placeholders, image swaps). Save it as a JSON or CSV-compatible file.","Run the tool: Use the command `python social_media_image_automation.py --template [TEMPLATE_PATH] --data [CSV_PATH] --output [FOLDER] --platform [PLATFORM]`. For advanced users, customize the script with Python to add filters (e.g., grayscale for Instagram Stories) or batch processing.","Review and refine: Check the generated images for consistency. Adjust the CSV or template if errors occur (e.g., missing images, text overflow). Use tools like Pillow or OpenCV for post-processing (e.g., resizing, adding watermarks).","Schedule posts: Export the images to your social media scheduler (e.g., Hootsuite, Buffer) or manually upload them. Include the CSV-generated captions for consistency across platforms."]
