Svg-To-gCode Converter

svg-to-gcode is an npm package that helps in SVG file inputs into G-Code text for a plotter. It's a friendly modification of the opensource respository "exportSVGtoGCODE" by o0morgan0o, originally a Node CLI tool. You can easily incorporate this package into your frontend application.

Installation

Install the package using npm:

npm install svg-to-gcode

Or, use a script tag :

<script src="https://unpkg.com/svg-to-gcode@^1.0.0/dist/svg-to-gcode.js"></script>

<script>
    // Configuration for the plotter gcode
    let settings = {
        zOffset : 3,
        feedRate : 1500,
        seekRate : 1200
    }
    // For using the default configuration , skip the settings
    const converter = SvgToGcode(settings)
    converter.convert(svgString).then((gcode) => {
        // Manipulate the recieved gcode
        console.log(gcode)
    })
</script>

Usage

import { Converter } from 'svg-to-gcode'

// Set the configuration for the Plotter
const settings = {
    zOffset : 3,
    feedRate : 1600,
    seekRate : 1300,
}
// For using the default configuration , skip the settings
const converter = new Converter(settings)

// You can download the generated gCode using this code
converter.convert(data).then((gcode) => {
    const file = new Blob([gcode], { type: 'text/plain' });
    const link = document.createElement('a');
    link.href = URL.createObjectURL(file);
    link.download = 'out.gcode';
    link.click();
    URL.revokeObjectURL(link.href);
})
