tsdexter/svg2

Documentation, Installation, and Usage Instructions

See the full installation and usage documentation HERE.

The Objective

I wanted to convert SVGs into diffrent image formats.

The Problem / Why

Converting a SVG into an image turns out to not be a simple and straight forward as it may seem. Multiple packages already exist on NPM but they all come with a few caveats (that i don't like).

• Some use puppeteer which requires you to download a browser like chromium (130mb download)
• Some do not support Node (work in browsers only)
• Some support CLI only.
• Some only convert to png

Usage Examples

Convert a SVG2 png and save to path (promise)

const Svg2 = require("oslllo-svg2");

Svg2("path/to/svg/example.svg")
  .png()
  .toFile("path/to/save/example.png")
  .then(() => {
    console.log("done");
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    throw error;
  });

Convert a SVG2 png and save to path (callback)

const Svg2 = require("oslllo-svg2");

Svg2("path/to/svg/example.svg")
  .png()
  .toFile("path/to/save/example.png", (err) => {
    if (err) {
      throw err;
    } else {
      console.log("done");
    }
  });
