wx.svg._nanosvg

NanoSVG is a “simple stupid single-header-file SVG parser” from https://github.com/memononen/nanosvg. The output of the parser is a collection of data structures representing cubic bezier shapes.

NanoSVG supports a wide range of SVG features. The library is well suited for anything from rendering scalable icons in your editor application to prototyping a game. There is not a full coverage of the SVG specification, however the features needed for typical icons or even more advanced vector images are present.

The shapes in the SVG images are transformed by the viewBox and converted to specified units. That is, you should get the same looking data as you designed in your favorite app.

NanoSVG can return the paths in few different units. For example if you want to render an image, you may choose to get the paths in pixels, or if you are feeding the data into a CNC-cutter, you may want to use millimeters.

The units passed to NanoSVG should be one of: ‘px’, ‘pt’, ‘pc’ ‘mm’, ‘cm’, or ‘in’. DPI (dots-per-inch) controls how the unit conversion is done.

If you don’t know or care about the units stuff, “px” and 96 should get you going.

This module implements a Cython-based wrapper for the NanoSVG code, providing access to the parsed SVG data as a nested collection of objects and properties. Note that these classes are essentially read-only. There is no support (yet?) for manipulating the SVG shape info in memory.
