Package Exports

svg-path-reverse
svg-path-reverse/reverse.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (svg-path-reverse) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

An SVG path reversal library

This is a simple SVG path reversal library, with a terribly simple API.

installation

Install with npm:

$> npm install svg-path-reverse

Using the library

This is a universal library, you can load it through require.js, UMD, commonjs, browser, whatever, it doesn't care. You probably know how to use the technology you've chosen to use. Once you've loaded it in, however that might be, the API is as follows:

var utils = ... // load however you know to load libraries
var reverse = utils.reverse,
    normalize = utils.normalize;

var path ="m0 0l10 0 0 10 -10 0z";

var normalized = normalize(path);
var reversed = reverse(path);
var reversed2 = reverse(reversed);

console.log("reversing is idempotent:", normalized === reversed2);

The reverse function can take an optional second argument to reverse a specific subpath in a compound SVG path:

var utils = ... // load however you know to load libraries
var reverse = utils.reverse,
    normalize = utils.normalize;

var path ="m0 0l10 0 0 10 -10 0z m10 10l10 0 0 10 -10 0z";

var normalized = normalize(path);
var reversed = reverse(path, 1);
var reversed2 = reverse(reversed, 1);

console.log("subpath reversing is also idempotent:", normalized === reversed2);

Working on the code

There's no fancy build system here: update the code, update test.js, then run your tests using node test.js.
