README

react-svg-path

react-svg-path makes composing svg elements dead simple. Everything is a path. Have fun.

There are more docs and interactive demos at https://joemaddalone.github.io/react-svg-path-docs/

Install

npm install --save react-svg-path

Path

import Path from 'react-svg-path'

react-svg-path is mostly helpful for building the commands needed for the "d" attribute of an svg path.

Most methods are direct translations from the SVG Path specification.

<path d="M0 0, L0 100"></path>

This path can be produced with:

const path = new Path().M(0,0).L(0,100);
console.log(path.toString()) // M0 0, L0 100

This library wraps https://github.com/joemaddalone/path and further documentation can be found there. All of the functionality of path is always available via import Path from 'react-svg-path' Please read the docs on path

toComponent

This library adds one additional rendering method to path called toComponent.

  • toComponent(props)
    • returns a jsx function including attributes and props.
import React from 'react';
import Path, {Svg}  from 'react-svg-path';

const CustomSquare = ({ x, y, size }) => {
  const path = new Path()
    .moveTo(x, y) // move pen to x, y
    .right(size) // draw line right to relative "size" px
    .down(size) // draw line down to relative "size" px
    .left(size) // draw line left to relative "size" px
    .close() // draw line back to first point
  return path.toComponent({ fill: 'green'});
};

const App = () => {
  const width = 800;
  const height = 800;
  return (
    <Svg
      width={width}
      height={height}
    >
      <CustomSquare x={50} y={50} size={50} />
    </svg>
  );
};

Components

Writing path commands via the library makes creating paths super simple and intuitive. However it can seem like overkill for really common patterns you may need. react-svg-path includes a number of components to allow for a declarative interface for generating the paths you need.

Note: The following shorthand version of some props are available where applicable:

  • sxy: sx & sy = sxy
  • exy: ex & ey = exy
  • cxy: cx & cy = cxy
  • rxy: rx & cy = rxy

The following components are available
