Diagrams.Backend.SVG

A full-featured rendering backend for diagrams producing SVG files, implemented natively in Haskell (making it easy to use on any platform).

To invoke the SVG backend, you have three options.

• You can use the Diagrams.Backend.SVG.CmdLine module to create standalone executables which output SVG images when invoked.
• You can use the renderSVG or renderPretty functions provided by this module, which give you more flexible programmatic control over when and how images are output (making it easy to, for example, write a single program that outputs multiple images, or one that outputs images dynamically based on user input, and so on). The only difference between the two functions is that renderPretty, pretty prints the SVG output.
• For the most flexibility (e.g. if you want access to the resulting SVG value directly in memory without writing it to disk), you can manually invoke the renderDia method from the Backend instance for SVG. In particular, renderDia has the generic type

renderDia :: b -> Options b v n -> QDiagram b v n m -> Result b v n

(omitting a few type class constraints). b represents the backend type, v the vector space, n the numerical field, and m the type of monoidal query annotations on the diagram. Options and Result are associated data and type families, respectively, which yield the type of option records and rendering results specific to any particular backend. For b ~ SVG, v ~ V2, we have

data    Options SVG V2 n = SVGOptions
    { _size            :: SizeSpec V2 n   -- ^ The requested size.
    , _svgDefinitions  :: Maybe Element
                          -- ^ Custom definitions that will be added to the @defs@
                          --   section of the output.
    , _idPrefix        :: T.Text
    , _svgAttributes   :: [Attribute]
                          -- ^ Attributes to apply to the entire svg element.
    , _generateDoctype :: Bool
    }

data family Render SVG V2 n = R 'SvgRenderM n'

type family Result SVG V2 n = Element

So the type of renderDia resolves to

renderDia :: SVG -> Options SVG V2 n -> QDiagram SVG V2 n m -> Element

which you could call like renderDia SVG (SVGOptions (mkWidth 250) Nothing "" [] True) myDiagram (if you have the OverloadedStrings extension enabled; otherwise you can use 'Text.pack ""'). (In some situations GHC may not be able to infer the type m, in which case you can use a type annotation to specify it; it may be useful to simply use the type synonym Diagram SVG = QDiagram SVG V2 Double Any.) This returns an Element value, which you can, e.g. render to a ByteString using renderBS from the 'svg-builder' package.
