Repetitive tasks are always time consuming and boring, think you want to crop 100 photos one by one or Fetch API, correct spelling and grammar etc, all these tasks are time consuming, why not automate What about them? In today’s article, I will share with you 10 Python automation scripts.
So, please put this article on your favorites list, in case you need it, in the IT industry, the learning of programmers is never-ending…
Now, let’s get started.
01. Image optimizer
Use this awesome automation script to help make your images even better, and you can edit them just like you would in Photoshop.
The script uses the popular Pillow module
# Image Optimizing
# pip install Pillow
import PIL
#Croping
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = im. crop((34, 23, 100, 100))
#Resizing
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = im. resize((50, 50))
#Flipping
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = im.transpose(PIL.Image.FLIP_LEFT_RIGHT)
#Rotating
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = im. rotate(360)
# Compressing
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im.save("Image1.jpg", optimize=True, quality=90)
#Blurring
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = im.filter(PIL.ImageFilter.BLUR)
#Sharpening
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = im.filter(PIL.ImageFilter.SHARPEN)
#Set Brightness
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = PIL.ImageEnhance.Brightness(im)
im = im.enhance(1.5)
# Set Contrast
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = PIL. ImageEnhance. Contrast(im)
im = im.enhance(1.5)
# Adding Filters
im = PIL.Image.open("Image1.jpg")
im = PIL. ImageOps. grayscale(im)
im = PIL.ImageOps.invert(im)
im = PIL.ImageOps.posterize(im, 4)
# Saving
im.save("Image1.jpg")
02, video optimizer
By using the following automation script, you can use Python not only to optimize video, but also to optimize images. The script uses the Moviepy module, allowing you to trim, add audio, set video speed, add VFX, and more.
# Video Optimizer
# pip install moviepy
import moviepy.editor as pyedit
# Load the Video
video = pyedit.VideoFileClip("vid.mp4")
#Trimming
vid1 = video.subclip(0, 10)
vid2 = video.subclip(20, 40)
final_vid = pyedit. concatenate_videoclips([vid1, vid2])
# Speed up the video
final_vid = final_vid.speedx(2)
#Adding Audio to the video
aud = pyedit.AudioFileClip("bg.mp3")
final_vid = final_vid.set_audio(aud)
# Reverse the Video
final_vid = final_vid.fx(pyedit.vfx.time_mirror)
# Merge two videos
vid1 = pyedit.VideoFileClip("vid1.mp4")
vid2 = pyedit.VideoFileClip("vid2.mp4")
final_vid = pyedit. concatenate_videoclips([vid1, vid2])
# Add VFX to Video
vid1 = final_vid.fx(pyedit.vfx.mirror_x)
vid2 = final_vid.fx(pyedit.vfx.invert_colors)
final_vid = pyedit. concatenate_videoclips([vid1, vid2])
# Add Images to Video
img1 = pyedit. ImageClip("img1. jpg")
img2 = pyedit. ImageClip("img2. jpg")
final_vid = pyedit. concatenate_videoclips([img1, img2])
# Save the video
final_vid.write_videofile("final.mp4")
03, PDF to image
This small automated script conveniently takes entire PDF pages and converts them to images. The script uses the popular PyMuPDF module, known for its PDF text extraction.
# PDF to Images
# pip install PyMuPDF
import fitz
def pdf_to_images(pdf_file):
doc = fitz. open(pdf_file)
for p in doc:
pix = p.get_pixmap()
output = f"page{p.number}.png"
pix.writePNG(output)
pdf_to_images("test.pdf")
04. Get API data
API data needs to be fetched from the database or an API request needs to be sent to the server. Then this automation script is a handy tool for you. Use the Urllib3 module, which allows you to make and post API requests.
# pip install urllib3
import urllib3
# Fetch API data
url = "https://api.github.com/users/psf/repos"
http = urllib3. PoolManager()
response = http.request('GET', url)
print(response. status)
print(response. data)
# Post API data
url = "https://httpbin.org/post"
http = urllib3. PoolManager()
response = http.request('POST', url, fields={'hello': 'world'})
print(response. status)
05, battery indicator
This handy script lets you set the battery percentage you want to be notified about. The script uses Pyler for notifications and Psutil to get the current battery percentage.
# Battery Notifier
# pip install plyer
from plyer import notification
import psutil
from time import sleep
while True:
battery = psutil. sensors_battery()
life = battery. percent
if life < 50:
notification. notify(
title = "Battery Low",
message = "Please connect to power source",
timeout = 10
)
sleep(60)
06, grammar fixer
Tired of proofreading your long articles or texts, then, you can try this automated script that will scan your text and correct grammatical errors, this awesome script uses the Happtransformer module, which is a machine learning module that is trained to Fix grammatical errors in the text.
# Grammer Fixer
# pip install happytransformer
from happytransformer import HappyTextToText as HappyTTT
from happytransformer import TTSettings
def Grammer_Fixer(Text):
Grammer = HappyTTT("T5","prithivida/grammar_error_correcter_v1")
config = TTSettings(do_sample=True, top_k=10, max_length=100)
corrected = Grammer. generate_text(Text, args=config)
print("Corrected Text: ", corrected.text)
Text = "This is simple tet we how know this"
Grammer_Fixer (Text)
07, spelling correction
