diagrams-svg Hackage Build Status

diagrams-svg is a an SVG backend for diagrams. Diagrams is a powerful, flexible, declarative domain-specific language for creating vector graphics, using the Haskell programming language.

diagrams-svg is the default out-of-the box backend that comes with the diagrams framework, and supports most features defined in diagrams-lib.

Installation

cabal update && cabal install diagrams-svg

Usage

A simple example that uses diagrams-svg to draw a square.

import Diagrams.Prelude
import Diagrams.Backend.SVG.CmdLine

b1 :: Diagram B
b1 = square 20 # lw 0.002

main = mainWith (pad 1.1 b1)

Save this to file named Square.hs and compile this program:

ghc --make Square.hs

This will generate an executable which, when run produces an SVG file. Run the executable with the --help option to find out more about how to call it.

$ ./Square --help
./Square

Usage: ./Square [-w|--width WIDTH] [-h|--height HEIGHT] [-o|--output OUTPUT] [--loop] [-s|--src ARG] [-i|--interval INTERVAL]
  Command-line diagram generation.

Available options:
  -?,--help                Show this help text
  -w,--width WIDTH         Desired WIDTH of the output image
  -h,--height HEIGHT       Desired HEIGHT of the output image
  -o,--output OUTPUT       OUTPUT file
  -l,--loop                Run in a self-recompiling loop
  -s,--src ARG             Source file to watch
  -i,--interval INTERVAL   When running in a loop, check for changes every INTERVAL seconds.
  -p,--pretty              Pretty print the SVG output

You must pass an output file name with a .svg extension to generate the SVG file.

$ ./Square -o square.svg

The command above generates the SVG file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">

Full Changelog

New features

  • Support for including hyperlinks.

Dependency/version changes

  • Allow diagrams-core-1.1 and diagrams-lib-1.1

Bug fixes

  • Use splitFills to properly render certain diagrams with mixed lines and filled loops. Previously, in certain situations loops that should have been filled were not. (#43)

  • Don’t emit last segment of a loop if it is linear.

    See diagrams-cairo#38. This wasn’t actually causing any observable problems in the SVG backend output, but this seems a better/more robust way to do things in any case.

Closed issues:

  • SVG backend doesn’t fill loops if they occur in the same subtree as a line #43

Merged pull requests:

  • Hyperlinks #49 (tdox)

  • stop using ignoreFill; use splitFills instead. Fixes #43. #47 (byorgey)

v1.0 (2013-11-25)

According to the PVP, these changes should require a major version bump. However, a major version bump would be quite annoying and I don’t expect these instance changes to affect anyone (the changes were made for internal reasons). Please yell if it does affect you.
