Description: # address2img
        A python module to convert addresses to map images using open source map data sources and mapnik.
        ## Installation
        address2img works on any system with mapnik 2.x or newer.
        
        Mapnik must be installed before proceeding with install.
        To test for mapnik, run
        ```bash
        mapnik-config -v # Should return a version 2.x or newer
        ```
        
        Use pip to install address2img
        ```bash
        sudo python -m pip install address2img
        ```
        
        ## Basic Usage
        To use address2img, the configuration file and mapnik xml file must be configured.
        The configuration file is [config.ini](config.ini) by default. To configure the mapnik xml file, see [here](https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/wiki/XMLConfigReference).
        
        After the config and xml files are configured, usage is as simple as importing the module and calling the function.
        ```python
        # importing map_maker file from address2img
        from address2img import map_maker
        
        # defining addresses for which render maps, must be a list
        addresses = [
            'Piazza del Duomo, 56126 Pisa PI, Italy',
            '1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC 20500',
            ]
            
        # instantiating Map_Maker class with addresses
        worker = map_maker.Map_Maker(addresses)
        
        # calling make_map method of the Map_Maker instance
        worker.make_map()
        
        ```
