Can I load a svg from my server to make it a png?

[ashickur-rahman]

I have already created a SVG, but now I want to make it a png. Is it possible to do so?

Yes, you can use the toRasterImage method to achieve that. See the README.md (Rasterizing section) for an example.

My bad, I forget add I already have the SVG. So how I can call the file? In example you initialize a SVG using this
$image = new SVG(100, 100);

But I want to load the SVG I already have. Is it possible?

[stelgenhof]

If I understand what you are trying to do, have a look at the README.md file the last section. It explains how you can load an existing SVG from either a string or file.

The example outputs the resulting SVG to the browser, but you can easily save the resulting SVG to a file with for example the PHP 'file_put_contents' function.

Is that what you are looking for?

Now I got it. But png is not rendering well.
This is the SVG

svg.zip

The code

require "vendor/autoload.php";

use SVG\SVG;

$image = SVG::fromFile("circle.svg");

$rasterImage = $image->toRasterImage(500, 500);

header('Content-Type: image/png');
imagepng($rasterImage);

I am not sure, what I am doing wrong?

This might not be the best way to generate a PNG from an existing SVG file. The internal rasterization component of this library might not be able to properly render the elements in your SVG. I belief there are some limitations with rasterization in this library.

If you only are looking for a simple conversion from SVG to PNG, then I would recommend use a library such as Imagick.
