Canvas2Svg
|
|
==========
|
|
This library turns your Canvas into SVG using javascript. In other words, this library lets you build an SVG document using the canvas api. Why use it?
|
|
* You have a canvas drawing you want to persist as an SVG file.
|
|
* You like exporting things.
|
|
* Because you didn't want to transform your custom file format to SVG.
|

How it works
|
|
==========
|
|
We create a mock 2d canvas context. Use the canvas context like you would on a normal canvas. As you call methods, we build up a scene graph in SVG. Yay!
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
==========
|
|
```javascript
|
|
//Create a new mock canvas context. Pass in your desired width and height for your svg document.
|
|
var ctx = new C2S(500,500);
|
|
|
|
//draw your canvas like you would normally
|
|
ctx.fillStyle="red";
|
|
ctx.fillRect(100,100,100,100);
|
|
//etc...
|
|
|
|
//serialize your SVG
|
|
var mySerializedSVG = ctx.getSerializedSvg(); //true here, if you need to convert named to numbered entities.
|
|
|
|
//If you really need to you can access the shadow inline SVG created by calling:
|
|
var svg = ctx.getSvg();
|
|
```
