Ink2SmartCanvas is an Inkscape extension written in Python that exports SVG to HTML5 Canvas in a flavor that Smart Mobile Studio can handle the data. The extension is based on based on Ink2canvas. It aims on providing a way to ease the creation of Canvas graphics by avoiding writing code by hand through Inkscape drawing interface.
- Ink2SmartCanvas - This folder holds the project main files:
- main.py - Reads and parse the SVG file, creating objects and calling the respective methods to handle it.
- canvas.py - A class responsible for producing Canvas code.
- svg.py - Abstracts SVG elements parsed by the main.py file.
- lib/ - This folder contains some Python modules provided by Inkscape and useful for building extensions. These are being used just for development and testing, so it is recomended in a production enviroment to use the already provided by the system.
- Ink2SmartCanvas.inx - A XML file that describes the interface between Inkscape and the extension. It must be put in the /extensions folder to Inkscape be aware of this extension.
If you want a system wide install, put just the file Ink2SmartCanvas.inx and the folder Ink2SmartCanvas at /usr/share/inkscape/extensions folder (or similar), if you have permission to do this. Alternatively, you can put the files in the local Inkscape extensions folder: $HOME/.config/inkscape/extensions (or similar).
