Browsing Templates
Before generating a meme, browse the API to find the right template. Don't just guess — fetch the list.
List all templates:
curl -s https://api.memegen.link/templates/ | jq '.[] | {id, name}'
Search for a template by keyword:
curl -s https://api.memegen.link/templates/ | jq '.[] | select(.name | test("keyword"; "i")) | {id, name}'
Get details and example URL for a specific template:
curl -s https://api.memegen.link/templates/{id}
Always browse first if the user asks for a specific vibe or if you're unsure which template fits best.
Generating a Meme
- Browse templates from the API to pick the best fit
- Encode the text (underscores for spaces, special char codes)
- Keep text short — 2-6 words per line for readability
- Build the URL and verify with curl:
curl -s -o meme.png "https://api.memegen.link/images/{template}/{top}/{bottom}.png"
- Read the downloaded image to display it to the user
Options
| Parameter | Example |
|---|---|
| Width | ?width=800 |
| Height | ?height=600 |
| Layout | ?layout=top or ?layout=bottom |
| Format | .png, .jpg, .webp, .gif |
Custom Background Image

Workflow
- Understand the vibe/context from the user
- Browse templates from the API — don't assume a template exists, verify it
- Pick the right template (match template meaning to the joke)
- Write short punchy text
- Download the image with curl
- Read the image file to show it inline
- Clean up the file after if needed
