Search curated ASCII art from the web. Use terminal with curl.
Large collection of classic ASCII art organized by subject. Art is inside HTML <pre> tags. Fetch the page with curl, then extract art with a small Python snippet.
URL pattern: https://ascii.co.uk/art/{subject}
Step 1 — Fetch the page:
curl -s 'https://ascii.co.uk/art/cat' -o /tmp/ascii_art.html
Step 2 — Extract art from pre tags:
import re, html
with open('/tmp/ascii_art.html') as f:
text = f.read()
arts = re.findall(r'<pre[^>]*>(.*?)</pre>', text, re.DOTALL)
for art in arts:
clean = re.sub(r'<[^>]+>', '', art)
clean = html.unescape(clean).strip()
if len(clean) > 30:
print(clean)
print('\n---\n')
Available subjects (use as URL path):
cat, dog, horse, bird, fish, dragon, snake, rabbit, elephant, dolphin, butterfly, owl, wolf, bear, penguin, turtlecar, ship, airplane, rocket, guitar, computer, coffee, beer, cake, house, castle, sword, crown, keytree, flower, sun, moon, star, mountain, ocean, rainbowskull, robot, angel, wizard, pirate, ninja, alienchristmas, halloween, valentineTips:
