Templates

Template Description Input Schema

Examples

# Render a table
./scripts/render.sh table --data '{"columns":["Name","Score"],"rows":[["Alice","95"],["Bob","87"]]}' -o table.png

# Render a bar chart
./scripts/render.sh chart-bar --data '{"labels":["Jan","Feb","Mar"],"values":[120,150,180],"title":"Monthly Sales"}' --style dark -o chart.png

# Render stats
./scripts/render.sh stats --data '{"stats":[{"label":"Users","value":"12.5K","change":"+12%"},{"label":"Revenue","value":"$45K","change":"+8%"}]}' -o stats.png

💡 Sending Images to Users

After rendering an image, you'll typically want to send it to the user. Here's the recommended workflow:

# 1. Render to ~/.openclaw/media/ (recommended path)
./scripts/render.sh table --data '...' -o ~/.openclaw/media/my-table.png

# 2. Send inline via message tool
message(action=send, filePath=/home/ubuntu/.openclaw/media/my-table.png, caption="Caption", channel=telegram, to=<user_id>)

Tips:

  • Save to ~/.openclaw/media/ — this path works reliably for inline sending
  • Use descriptive captions — helps users understand the visual
  • Consider the context — sometimes saving to disk is fine if the user requested it

Example (complete flow):

# Render
echo '{"title":"My Data","columns":["A","B"],"rows":[["1","2"]]}' | 
  ./scripts/render.sh table -o ~/.openclaw/media/data.png

# Send
message(action=send, filePath=/home/ubuntu/.openclaw/media/data.png, caption="Here's your data", channel=telegram, to=USER_ID)

Dependencies

  • /usr/bin/wkhtmltoimage — HTML to image conversion
