PathBool.js

A low-level library for performing boolean operations on SVG paths. The project is still in early stages of development; please, help me test it and provide reduced examples of failure cases.

Demos

TODO

Installation

npm install path-bool

Building

npm run build
# or with asserts:
npm run build-dev

Usage

See the docs directory or visit https://r-flash.github.io/PathBool.js/.

A snippet of possible usage:

import * as PathBool from "path-bool";

// initialize path from SVG path data...
const pathA = PathBool.pathFromPathData("M0,0 C...");
// ...or from an array of SVG path commands...
const pathA = PathBool.pathFromCommands([["M", [0, 0]], ["C", [/*...*/], /*...*/]/*...*/]);
// ...or directly from path segments (L, C, Q, or A with the start point prepended)
const pathA = [["C", [0, 0], [/*...*/], /*...*/], /*...*/];

const fillRuleA = PathBool.FillRule.EvenOdd;
const pathB = PathBool.pathFromPathData("M0,0 C...");
const fillRuleB = PathBool.FillRule.NonZero;

const op = PathBool.PathBooleanOperation.Union;

const result = PathBool.pathBoolean(pathA, fillRuleA, pathB, fillRuleB, op);

console.log(result.map(PathBool.pathToPathData));
console.log(result.map(PathBool.pathToCommands));
