dvcrn Mixtiles It
Turn any photo into a Mixtiles order link. User sends a photo (or image URL) → get back a ready-to-order Mixtiles cart link.
How It Works
- User sends/forwards a photo or image URL
- Run the upload script to get a public URL and Mixtiles cart link
- Send the cart link back — user taps it to customize and order
Usage
# Single photo
python3 scripts/mixtiles-cart.py <local-file-or-url> [--size SIZE]
# Multiple photos (one cart link with all photos)
python3 scripts/mixtiles-cart.py --batch <image1> <image2> ... [--size SIZE]
The script handles:
- Local files: Uploads to Cloudinary (the only host Mixtiles can display from)
- URLs: Downloads first, then uploads to Cloudinary
- Batch mode: Uploads all images and builds a single multi-photo cart URL
- Output: Prints the Mixtiles cart URL to stdout
Size Options
Default is RECTANGLE_12X16. Other known sizes from Mixtiles:
SQUARE_8X8— Classic squareRECTANGLE_12X16— Portrait rectangle (default)RECTANGLE_16X12— Landscape rectangle
Environment Variables (optional)
CLOUDINARY_CLOUD— Cloudinary cloud name (default:demo)CLOUDINARY_PRESET— Cloudinary unsigned upload preset (default:unsigned)MIXTILES_UPLOAD_URL— Override the upload API endpoint (Railway fallback)MIXTILES_UPLOAD_KEY— Override the upload API key (Railway fallback)
Workflow
When a user sends a photo with intent to mixtile it:
- Identify the image file path (from media attachment) or URL
- Run:
python3 <skill-dir>/scripts/mixtiles-cart.py <path-or-url> - Send the resulting URL to the user with a brief message like "Here's your Mixtiles link! 🖼️ Tap to customize size, frame, and order."
If multiple photos are sent, use --batch to create a single cart link with all photos:
python3 <skill-dir>/scripts/mixtiles-cart.py --batch <path1> <path2> ...
