svger

Go package for parsing re-rendering svg files. It includes support for Bezier Curve rasterization. See history for where the initial version of the code originated.

Overview

The svger package parses SVG files and generates a series of drawing instructions in order to re-render/manipulate them.

We provide a simple example, the svgoutline program:

$ go run examples/svgoutline.go --src examples/test-board-F_Cu.svg

Automated documentation for the svger package can be found on go.dev.

Planned changes

The package’s main purpose is to support transforming multi-group SVG kicad generated SVG metal layers into a flattened outline represenation, suitable for laser cutting on a Snapmaker 2. We’ll likely host the set of tools for that in a separate repository to keep the package dependencies of this current package more straightforward.

History

This package was evolved from a forked version of: github.com/rustyoz/svg, trimmed of superflous dependencies and merged with the two independent packages: github.com/rustyoz/Mtransform and github.com/rustyoz/genericlexer.
