Animated stickers for Telegram (*.tgs) to animated GIFs converter

To easily convert stickers to GIFs you can use Telegram Bot👉 https://t.me/tgstogifbot 👈

FYI: There is a test version of converter written in C++ in master-cpp branch. It works a little faster, but generated GIFs may contain some artifacts.

Using Docker

1. Build the image:

   docker build -t tgs-to-gif .
   

2. Convert! Pass directory with stickers and run:

   docker run --rm -v <path to directory with stickers>:/source tgs-to-gif
   

The result will be saved next to each source sticker file in the same directory.
