# will build the binary into ${BUILDDIR}. The golang compiler is fetched and installed into $PWD/gitea/bin/
make BUILDDIR=$PWD
# Create a random avatar and write it to /tmp/avatar.svg
$PWD/gitea/bin/avatar my-special-seed-string > /tmp/avatar.svg
# Open SVG file with default image viewer
eog /tmp/avatar.svg

make BUILDDIR=$PWD
for i in {1..40} ; do
	$PWD/gitea/bin/avatar my-special-seed-string_$i > /tmp/avatar_$i.svg
	rsvg-convert /tmp/avatar_$i.svg -z 10 -o /tmp/avatar_$i.png
