@aurokk/dom-to-svg v1.0.4

DOM to SVG

Library to convert a given HTML DOM node into an accessible SVG "screenshot".

PLEASE NOTE: IT IS A FORK OF felixfbecker/dom-to-svg THAT I WANT TO ACTUALIZE AND IMPROVE. THERE IS NO TESTS AND IT IS UNSTABLE, SO DO NOT USE IT IN PRODUCTION. I WILL REMOVE THAT MESSAGE WHEN IT IS READY. THANKS.

Usage

import { documentToSVG, elementToSVG, inlineResources, formatXML } from 'dom-to-svg'

// Capture the whole document
const svgDocument = documentToSVG(document)

// Capture specific element
const svgDocument = elementToSVG(document.querySelector('#my-element'))

// Inline external resources (fonts, images, etc) as data: URIs
await inlineResources(svgDocument.documentElement)

// Get SVG string
const svgString = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(svgDocument)

The output can be used as-is as valid SVG or easily passed to other packages to pretty-print or compress.

Features

• Does NOT rely on <foreignObject> - SVGs will work in design tools like Illustrator, Figma etc.
• Maintains DOM accessibility tree by annotating SVG with correct ARIA attributes.
• Maintains interactive links.
• Maintains text to allow copying to clipboard.
• Can inline external resources like images, fonts, etc to make SVG self-contained.
• Maintains CSS stacking order of elements.
• Outputs debug attributes on SVG to trace elements back to their DOM nodes.
