#SVGo: A Go library for SVG generation#

The library generates SVG as defined by the Scalable Vector Graphics 1.1 Specification (http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/). Output goes to the specified io.Writer.

Supported SVG elements and functions

Shapes, lines, text

circle, ellipse, polygon, polyline, rect (including roundrects), line, text

Paths

general, arc, cubic and quadratic bezier paths,

Image and Gradients

image, linearGradient, radialGradient,

Transforms

translate, rotate, scale, skewX, skewY

Filter Effects

filter, feBlend, feColorMatrix, feColorMatrix, feComponentTransfer, feComposite, feConvolveMatrix, feDiffuseLighting, feDisplacementMap, feDistantLight, feFlood, feGaussianBlur, feImage, feMerge, feMorphology, feOffset, fePointLight, feSpecularLighting, feSpotLight,feTile, feTurbulence

Metadata elements

desc, defs, g (style, transform, id), marker, mask, pattern, title, (a)ddress, link, script, use

Building and Usage

See svgdef.[svg|png|pdf] for a graphical view of the function calls

Usage: (assuming GOPATH is set)

go get github.com/ajstarks/svgo
go install github.com/ajstarks/svgo/...

You can use godoc to browse the documentation from the command line:

$ go doc github.com/ajstarks/svgo

a minimal program, to generate SVG to standard output.

package main

import (
	"github.com/ajstarks/svgo"
	"os"
)

func main() {
	width := 500
	height := 500
	canvas := svg.New(os.Stdout)
	canvas.Start(width, height)
	canvas.Circle(width/2, height/2, 100)
	canvas.Text(width/2, height/2, "Hello, SVG", "text-anchor:middle;font-size:30px;fill:white")
	canvas.End()
}

Drawing in a web server: (http://localhost:2003/circle)

package main

import (
	"log"
	"github.com/ajstarks/svgo"
	"net/http"
)

func main() {
	http.Handle("/circle", http.HandlerFunc(circle))
	err := http.ListenAndServe(":2003", nil)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal("ListenAndServe:", err)
	}
}

func circle(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
  w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "image/svg+xml")
  s := svg.New(w)
  s.Start(500, 500)
  s.Circle(250, 250, 125, "fill:none;stroke:black")
  s.End()
}

You may view the SVG output with a browser that supports SVG (tested on Chrome, Opera, Firefox and Safari), or any other SVG user-agent such as Batik Squiggle.

Graphics Sketching with SVGo and svgplay

Combined with the svgplay command, SVGo can be used to "sketch" with code in a browser.

To use svgplay and SVGo, first go to a directory with your code, and run:

$ svgplay
2014/06/25 22:05:28 ☠ ☠ ☠ Warning: this server allows a client connecting to 127.0.0.1:1999 to execute code on this computer ☠ ☠ ☠	

Next open your browser to the svgplay server you just started. svgplay only listens on localhost, and uses port 1999 (guess which year SVG was first introduced) by default

http://localhost:1999/

Enter your code in the textarea, and when you are ready to run press Shift--Enter. The code will be compiled, with the results on the right. To update, change the code and repeat. Note that compilation errors are shown in red under the code. In order for svgplay/SVGo to work, make sure that the io.Writer specified with the New function is os.Stdout.

If you want to sketch with an existing file, enter its URL:

http://localhost:1999/foo.go

Functions and types

Many functions use x, y to specify an object's location, and w, h to specify the object's width and height. Where applicable, a final optional argument specifies the style to be applied to the object. The style strings follow the SVG standard; name:value pairs delimited by semicolons, or a series of name="value" pairs. For example: "fill:none; opacity:0.3" or fill="none" opacity="0.3" (see: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/styling.html)

The SVG type:

type SVG struct {
    Writer   io.Writer
}

Most operations are methods on this type, specifying the destination io.Writer.

The Offcolor type:

type Offcolor struct {
	Offset  uint8
	Color   string
	Opacity float64
}

is used to specify the offset, color, and opacity of stop colors in linear and radial gradients

The Filterspec type:

type Filterspec struct {
	In string
	In2 string
	Result string
}

is used to specify inputs and results for filter effects
