tiennm99 d2f09ecb33 feat(gacha): add /api/gachabeta toon-shaded wish style
The beta wish renders an 8-second astrology-themed night sky in toon
shading through a perspective action camera: it dollies toward a hero
cloud, a comet lights the cloud's rim from behind and bursts through it,
the camera chases the comet as its flare builds to a starburst, and the
label appears with an S, SS, or SSS rank. It shares the /api/gacha request
contract and render slots.

wheelofnames

Self-hosted API that renders wheel-of-names GIF animations and gacha wish MP4 animations with Remotion.

API

POST /api/gif
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: image/gif
Authorization: Bearer change-me
{
  "options": ["alice", "bob", "carol"],
  "winnerIndex": 1,
  "durationMs": 6500,
  "holdMs": 1200,
  "fps": 15,
  "size": 512,
  "theme": "classic"
}

Response is image/gif with winner metadata headers:

  • X-Wheel-Winner-Index
  • X-Wheel-Winner
  • X-Render-Duration-Ms

X-Wheel-Winner is URL-encoded so non-ASCII labels are safe in HTTP headers.

Gacha wish

POST /api/gacha
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: video/mp4
Authorization: Bearer change-me
{
  "label": "Pizza",
  "rarity": 5,
  "fps": 24,
  "width": 640
}

Renders a 7-second wish animation in the style of a gacha game: a meteor coloured by rarity (blue 3★, purple 4★, gold 5★) flies in from the left across a night sky and bursts in a white flash where the rank emblem appears, and the label is revealed beside a rank emblem (B, A, S) with its stars popping in. Each tier is louder than the one below: 4★ adds a bigger meteor, a lens flare, impact shake, and a double shockwave; 5★ adds a rainbow sunburst before landing, a gold sky flood, a starburst, counter rotating rays, falling sparkles, and a sheen across the emblem. The per-tier table lives in src/remotion/gacha-timeline.js. rarity is required; fps is 24 or 30; width is 640 (360 tall) or 854 (480 tall). Optional seed (integer, 0 to 2147483647) lays out the twinkling stars and particles; when omitted the service picks a random one, so every roll draws a different sky. The caller chooses the result and its rarity — the service only draws it.

Gacha wish beta

POST /api/gachabeta takes the same body and returns the same response as /api/gacha, rendering an 8-second beta style instead: a cosmic, astrology themed night sky in toon shading (flat colour bands, no outlines) seen through a perspective action camera. The camera dollies toward a hero cloud, a comet lights its rim from behind and bursts through it, the camera chases the comet as its flare builds, and after the burst the label appears with a rank (S, SS, SSS for rarity 3, 4, 5).

Response is a silent H.264 video/mp4 (Telegram plays it as an animation) with X-Gacha-Rarity and X-Render-Duration-Ms headers. Both routes share the MAX_CONCURRENT_RENDERS slots. All visuals are drawn procedurally; no game assets are used.

Local

Install dependencies and Chromium once:

npm install
npm run browser:ensure

Start the local API:

npm run dev

Generate GIF files locally

Generate the quick smoke fixtures at the git-ignored paths fixtures/smoke.gif and fixtures/gacha-5-star.mp4:

npm run render:smoke

Generate the complete fixture set at fixtures/smoke.gif, fixtures/vietnamese.gif, fixtures/sixteen-options.gif, and fixtures/gacha-{3,4,5}-star.mp4:

npm run render:fixtures

Render a custom GIF directly without starting the API server:

npm run render:local -- `
  --output wheel.gif `
  --option "Chiều nay uống CraneTea" `
  --option "Chiều nay uống CraneTea" `
  --option "Cà phê" `
  --winner 1

macOS, Linux, or Git Bash:

npm run render:local -- \
  --output wheel.gif \
  --option "Chiều nay uống CraneTea" \
  --option "Chiều nay uống CraneTea" \
  --option "Cà phê" \
  --winner 1

--winner is a zero-based index and is random when omitted. Run npm run render:local -- --help for duration, hold, FPS, size, theme, and timeout options. The documented root wheel.gif and fixtures/*.gif/*.mp4 outputs are git-ignored and safe to delete; custom output paths may need their own ignore rule.

Verify

Run the API smoke test and quality gates:

npm run api:smoke
npm run lint
npm run typecheck
npm test

Deploy

Use a container runtime first. Static-only platforms cannot satisfy POST /api/gif because Remotion server rendering needs Node, Chromium/runtime dependencies, and FFmpeg/compositor support.

docker build -t wheelofnames .
docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 -e API_TOKEN=change-me wheelofnames

Recommended starting resources: 1-2 vCPU and 1-2 GB RAM, with MAX_CONCURRENT_RENDERS=1. RENDER_TIMEOUT_MS defaults to 15000 and is raised to Remotion's 7000ms browser timeout floor when configured lower. API_TOKEN is required when NODE_ENV=production.
