# drawSvg A Python 3 library for programmatically generating SVG images (vector drawings) and rendering them or displaying them in an iPython notebook. Most common SVG tags are supported and others can easily be added by writing a small subclass of `DrawableBasicElement` or `DrawableParentElement`. An interactive Jupyter widget, `drawSvg.widgets.DrawingWidget`, is included that can update drawings based on mouse events. # Install drawSvg is available on PyPI: ``` $ pip3 install drawSvg ``` # Examples ### Basic drawing elements ```python import drawSvg as draw d = draw.Drawing(200, 100, origin='center') d.append(draw.Lines(-80, -45, 70, -49, 95, 49, -90, 40, close=False, fill='#eeee00', stroke='black')) d.append(draw.Rectangle(0,0,40,50, fill='#1248ff')) d.append(draw.Circle(-40, -10, 30, fill='red', stroke_width=2, stroke='black')) p = draw.Path(stroke_width=2, stroke='green', fill='black', fill_opacity=0.5) p.M(-30,5) # Start path at point (-30, 5) p.l(60,30) # Draw line to (60, 30) p.h(-70) # Draw horizontal line to x=-70 p.Z() # Draw line to start d.append(p) d.append(draw.ArcLine(60,-20,20,60,270, stroke='red', stroke_width=5, fill='red', fill_opacity=0.2)) d.append(draw.Arc(60,-20,20,60,270,cw=False, stroke='green', stroke_width=3, fill='none')) d.append(draw.Arc(60,-20,20,270,60,cw=True, stroke='blue', stroke_width=1, fill='black', fill_opacity=0.3)) d.setPixelScale(2) # Set number of pixels per geometry unit #d.setRenderSize(400,200) # Alternative to setPixelScale d.saveSvg('example.svg') d.savePng('example.png') # Display in iPython notebook d.rasterize() # Display as PNG d # Display as SVG ``` ![Example output image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cduck/drawSvg/master/examples/example1.png) ### Gradients ```python import drawSvg as draw d = draw.Drawing(1.5, 0.8, origin='center') d.draw(draw.Rectangle(-0.75,-0.5,1.5,1, fill='#ddd')) # Create gradient gradient = draw.RadialGradient(0,-0.35,0.7*10) gradient.addStop(0.5/0.7/10, 'green', 1) gradient.addStop(1/10, 'red', 0) # Draw a shape to fill with the gradient p = draw.Path(fill=gradient, stroke='black', stroke_width=0.002) p.arc(0,-0.35,0.7,30,120) p.arc(0,-0.35,0.5,120,30,cw=True, includeL=True) p.Z() d.append(p) # Draw another shape to fill with the same gradient p = draw.Path(fill=gradient, stroke='red', stroke_width=0.002) p.arc(0,-0.35,0.75,130,160) p.arc(0,-0.35,0,160,130,cw=True, includeL=True) p.Z() d.append(p) # Another gradient gradient2 = draw.LinearGradient(0.1,-0.35,0.1+0.6,-0.35+0.2) gradient2.addStop(0, 'green', 1) gradient2.addStop(1, 'red', 0) d.append(draw.Rectangle(0.1,-0.35,0.6,0.2, stroke='black', stroke_width=0.002, fill=gradient2)) # Display d.setRenderSize(w=600) d ``` ![Example output image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cduck/drawSvg/master/examples/example2.png) ### Duplicate geometry and clip paths ```python import drawSvg as draw d = draw.Drawing(1.4, 1.4, origin='center') # Define clip path clip = draw.ClipPath() clip.append(draw.Rectangle(-.25,.25-1,1,1)) # Draw a cropped circle c = draw.Circle(0,0,0.5, stroke_width='0.01', stroke='black', fill_opacity=0.3, clip_path=clip, id='circle') d.append(c) # Make a transparent copy, cropped again g = draw.Group(opacity=0.5, clip_path=clip) g.append(draw.Use('circle', 0.25,0.1)) d.append(g) # Display d.setRenderSize(400) d.rasterize() ``` ![Example output image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cduck/drawSvg/master/examples/example3.png) ### Implementing other SVG tags ```python import drawSvg as draw # Subclass DrawingBasicElement if it cannot have child nodes # Subclass DrawingParentElement otherwise # Subclass DrawingDef if it must go between tags in an SVG class Hyperlink(draw.DrawingParentElement): TAG_NAME = 'a' def __init__(self, href, target=None, **kwargs): # Other init logic... # Keyword arguments to super().__init__() correspond to SVG node # arguments: stroke_width=5 -> stroke-width="5" super().__init__(href=href, target=target, **kwargs) d = draw.Drawing(1, 1.2, origin='center') # Create hyperlink hlink = Hyperlink('https://www.python.org', target='_blank', transform='skewY(-30)') # Add child elements hlink.append(draw.Circle(0,0,0.5, fill='green')) hlink.append(draw.Text('Hyperlink',0.2, 0,0, center=0.6, fill='white')) # Draw and display d.append(hlink) d.setRenderSize(200) d ``` ![Example output image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cduck/drawSvg/master/examples/example4.png) ### Interactive Widget ```python import drawSvg as draw from drawSvg.widgets import DrawingWidget import hyperbolic.poincare.shapes as hyper # pip3 install hyperbolic # Create drawing d = draw.Drawing(2, 2, origin='center') d.setRenderSize(500) d.append(draw.Circle(0, 0, 1, fill='orange')) group = draw.Group() d.append(group) # Update the drawing based on user input click_list = [] def redraw(points): group.children.clear() for x1, y1 in points: for x2, y2 in points: if (x1, y1) == (x2, y2): continue p1 = hyper.Point.fromEuclid(x1, y1) p2 = hyper.Point.fromEuclid(x2, y2) if p1.distanceTo(p2) <= 2: line = hyper.Line.fromPoints(*p1, *p2, segment=True) group.draw(line, hwidth=0.2, fill='white') for x, y in points: p = hyper.Point.fromEuclid(x, y) group.draw(hyper.Circle.fromCenterRadius(p, 0.1), fill='green') redraw(click_list) # Create interactive widget and register mouse events widget = DrawingWidget(d) @widget.mousedown def mousedown(widget, x, y, info): if (x**2 + y**2) ** 0.5 + 1e-5 < 1: click_list.append((x, y)) redraw(click_list) widget.refresh() @widget.mousemove def mousemove(widget, x, y, info): if (x**2 + y**2) ** 0.5 + 1e-5 < 1: redraw(click_list + [(x, y)]) widget.refresh() widget ``` ![Example output image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cduck/drawSvg/master/examples/example5.gif) ### Animation ```python import drawSvg as draw # Draw a frame of the animation def draw_frame(t): d = draw.Drawing(2, 6.05, origin=(-1,-1.05)) d.setRenderSize(h=300) d.append(draw.Rectangle(-2, -2, 4, 8, fill='white')) d.append(draw.Rectangle(-1, -1.05, 2, 0.05, fill='brown')) t = (t + 1) % 2 - 1 y = 4 - t**2 * 4 d.append(draw.Circle(0, y, 1, fill='lime')) return d with draw.animate_jupyter(draw_frame, delay=0.05) as anim: # Or: #with draw.animate_video('example6.gif', draw_frame, duration=0.05 # ) as anim: # Add each frame to the animation for i in range(20): anim.draw_frame(i/10) for i in range(20): anim.draw_frame(i/10) for i in range(20): anim.draw_frame(i/10) ``` ![Example output image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cduck/drawSvg/master/examples/example6.gif)
