Curve

Curve is a vector drawing library providing a layer of user interaction tools over SVG. It is used in an Electron-based vector drawing app called Curve.app.

shot

Built on top of svg.js.

  • Will load any svg file
  • Will serialize (save!) the loaded svg file
  • Can create paths (pen tool), rectangles, and ellipses
  • Can select and modify paths, rectangles, and ellipses

Running the example

Usage

Curve is built with browserify and works in the browser, and node.js and Electron applications.

In the browser

The only dependency is svg.js which is bundled in curve.js and curve.min.js. Download curve.js or curve.min.js, and include it in your page

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>Curve App</title>
  <script src="curve.min.js"></script> 
</head>
<body>
  <div id="canvas"></div>
</body>
</html>

Then in your JS:

var doc = new Curve.SVGDocument("canvas")
var svgString = "<svg .....>...</svg>"
doc.deserialize(svgString)
doc.initializeTools()

In a node/io.js or Electron app

npm install --save curve

And it works similarly

var SVGDocument = require('curve').SVGDocument
 
var canvas = document.createElement('div')
var doc = new Curve.SVGDocument(canvas)
var svgString = "<svg .....>...</svg>"
doc.deserialize(svgString)
doc.initializeTools()
