node-raphael-args v0.2.9
node-raphael-args (includes raphael.JSON)
using the beatiful SVG library Raphaël in node.js to generate svg-data.
Features
- static svg generation with raphael
- ability to provide arguments to draw function for slightly more customizable rendering
- export images to and import from JSON
Installation
npm install node-raphael-args
Motivation
NIH - not invented here ... srsly .. i want to generate some good looking charts without using javascript on client side (because this is lame for none-interactive images)
for the args and json part - i wanted to let functions be slightly more dynamic when rendering, and also wanted the ability to load json info from the client and regenerate it server side
Usage
var raphael = require('node-raphael-args');
var svg = raphael.generate(width, height, function draw(paper) { … });
WARNING
jsdom just implements a DOM 1.0, which only covers SVG 1.0, but raphael uses SVG 1.1, so features like text may not work.
