A library for creating SVG drawings using Python.
Its usage and most of the public API (and obviously its name, too) is strongly inspired by Raphaël JavaScript Library. Some examples and some of the implementation details are borrowed from the original project, too.
See examples to examine how to it works and how to use it.
The package works with both Python 2 and 3 (tested on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Python 2.7.15 and Python 3.6.6).
as simple as:
from raphaelpy import Raphael
# Creates canvas 320 x 200 at 10, 50
paper = Raphael("drawing.svg", 320, 200)
# Creates circle at x = 50, y = 40, with radius 10
circle = paper.circle(50, 40, 10)
# Sets the fill attribute of the circle to red (#f00)
circle.attr("fill", "#f00")
# Sets the stroke attribute of the circle to blue
circle.attr("stroke", "#00f")
# Saves the resulting drawing to the file
paper.save()See examples directory for more examples.
