SVG
On a computer, every image is made out of pixels in various colors. The color of each pixel can bre representad by 3 basic color factors: Red, Green, and Blue.
If on the screen there are a lot of small pixel (if the screen has a good resolution) then the image is very smooth. People won't notice that the image is made of pixels. Still they are just pixels.
If we would like to change the size of the image we have to figure how to handle the pixels.
There are various formats to store such images that you are familiar with: PNG, JPG etc.
Together all these are called raster images.
There is an alternative that can be good for some images. We can store instructions on how to draw various shapes. When the computer needs to display such an image it follows the instructions and draws the shapes.
These images are called vector images.
There are several such system. We are going to discuss SVG - the Scalable Vector Graphics.
See the grid example.

A collection of SVG icons.
Introduction
In order to display an SVG image on an HTML page SVG we can embed the SVG in the HTML file, we can load an external SVG file via the img tag, or we can have JavaScript code generate the SVG on-the-fly.
We can also use any of the "back-end" languages to generate the SVG code and save it on the disk later to be served by the web-server or it can send it back to the client immediately.
- First we'll see how we can display SVG images on an HTML page.
- Then we'll examples of some basic shapes followed by some more complex drawings.
- After that we'll have examples generating SVG in a number of programming languages.

<h1>SVG Embedded in HTML</h1>
<svg width="400" height="200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="red" />
<circle cx="200" cy="120" r="40" fill="rgb(0, 255, 0)" />
<text x="200" y="50" font-size="30"
text-anchor="middle" fill="blue">SVG Embedded in HTML</text>
</svg>
</body>
</html>
The above HTML file will render to this:
SVG loaded in an img
In many cases it is probbably better to separate the SVG content from the HTML itself with all the usual pro and contra reasons.
Pro:
- separating the SVG file allows the developer to vide and edit it separately
- browsers can cache the svg image and this if the same image is reused on multiple page the browser does not need to load the data several times.
Contra:
- Browsers need to make a separate request to load each SVG file.
Move the SVG part to a separate file with .svg extension:
<svg width="400" height="200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="rgb(230, 230, 230)" />
<circle cx="200" cy="120" r="40" fill="rgb(0, 255, 0)" />
<text x="200" y="50" font-size="30"
text-anchor="middle" fill="blue">SVG loaded via img tag</text>
</svg>
In the HTML document refer to the file via an img tag:
<html>
<head>
<title>SVG loaded via img</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>SVG loaded via img</h1>
<img src="load-svg-via-img.svg">
</body>
</html>
The page is rendered like this:
SVG loaded in an object
Certain features do not work when using the HTML img tag to display an SVG file. Specifically the embedding of other images in the SVG file using the image tag of SVG does not work.
Nor can one link using the a SVG tag.
Using object solves these problems.
In this example we have embedded the SVG file from the previous example.
<html>
<head>
<title>SVG loaded via object</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>SVG loaded via object</h1>
<object data="load-svg-via-object.svg" type="image/svg+xml"></object>

SVG validation
xmllint (part of libxml2)
sudo apt install libxml2-utils
xmllint --noout yourfile.svg
prints nothing and sets exit code to 0 on success
print error message and sets exit code to non-0 on failure
Check XML validity, but not specific to SVG.
One could use the SVG DTD.
svglint (Node.js-based)
SVG-specific linting beyond just XML structure. Requires node.js
npm install -g svglint
svglint yourfile.svg
svgcheck (Python script)
Checking if an SVG file follows the SVG spec more closely.
Install:
pip install svgcheck
Usage:
svgcheck yourfile.svg
W3C Validator (Local via Docker)
The W3C Markup Validator can be run locally via Docker for comprehensive validation.
docker run -v $(pwd):/var/www:ro validator/validator /var/www/yourfile.svg
Convert SVG to PNG or JPEG
There are cases when you need to supply a raster image. Eg. a system that does not (yet ?) support SVG. How can we convert an SVG image to a raster image?
There are number of tools to do this.
Convert SVG to PNG or JPEG using ImageMagick
To install on Ubuntu:
sudo apt install imagemagick
On the command line run:
convert input.svg output.png
Convert SVG to PNG or JPEG using Inkscape
To install on Ubuntu:
sudo apt install inkscape
On the command line run:
inkscape --export-filename=output.png input.svg
Using The Gnome Image Viewer
It is also called the Eye of Gnome or eog.
We can open the image with the viewer by double-clicking on the SVG file in the file-explorer or by running:
eog input.svg
To convert click on the hamburger menu, select "Save As" and save as a .png file.
Style
There are two ways to set the style/color of the shapes. Using these 3 attributes or using the style attribute.
strokethe color of the "pen" (e.g. the line, the outline of a shape etc.)stroke-widththe width of the line in pixels.fillthe color of the internal part of certain shapes. (e.g. a circle and a rectangle will have this, a line will not).
stroke="blue"
stroke-width="4"
fill="yellow"
There is also a an attribute called style
style
In this case all the styling fields are part of the value of the style attribute.
- Colon
:separates between name and value. - Semi-colon
;separates between fields. - No quotes around the individual values.
style="stroke:blue;stroke-width:4;fill:yellow"
Colors
- Some colors have names: black, white, red, green, blue, purple, etc. (See the CSS colors).
- We can express colors as RGB in hexa:
#DE23F1. - We can use the single letters:
#AB3which is the same as#AABB33. - We can use decimal numbers
rgb(23, 42, 17)for the Red, Green, and Blue values.
fill="blue"
fill="#DE23F1"
fill="#AB3"
fill="rgb(23, 42, 17)"
g container element
- Element g to group elements and to apply various attributes to all of them via inheritance.
<svg viewBox="0 0 300 300" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<g fill="white" stroke="blue" stroke-width="5">
<circle cx="40" cy="40" r="25" />
<circle cx="80" cy="40" r="25" />
<circle cx="60" cy="60" r="25" />
</g>
<g fill="white" stroke="red" stroke-width="5" transform="translate(0, 80)">

</svg>
transform
- rotate

Size vs ViewBox
The svg element can have attributes width and height in pixels to define the size of the image and it can have an attrbute called ViewBox.
width and height are the actual size of the image on the screen, the rendered size. (Well, assuming there are not external forces to change that.)
ViewBox is an internal coordinate system viewBox="X Y width height" where X, Y are the coordinates of the top-left corner and width and height are well, the dimensions of the coordinate system.
I think one should almost always use ViewBox.
Size
<img width="100px" src="../examples/size.svg">
<img width="300px" src="../examples/size.svg">
<svg width="200" height="200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="white" stroke="black" stroke-width="1" />
<rect width="100" height="50" fill="blue" />
</svg>
ViewBox
A regular img tag in the HTML will allow the SVG to take up all the width in the current HTML tag.
We can set the width or height element of the img tag (but preferably not both) to set the actual size of the image.
<img width="100px" src="../examples/viewbox.svg">
<svg viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="white" stroke="black" stroke-width="1" />
<rect width="100" height="50" fill="blue" />
</svg>

- Links don't work if we are embedding the svg using
imgtags, but usingobjectthey work.

fillsets the background color of a shape, e.g. a rectangle. -
fillsets the background color. -
strokesets the color of the border. -
stroke-widthsets the width (in pixels) of th border. -
We can also use
styleto set all 3 attributes.

Star of David
In Hebrew it is called the Shield of David.
This one is built of 2 triangles of equal sides that can be drawn using 2 polygon. There is some basic math behind the triangles to calculate the height of the triangle. Some more math to place the two triangles on top of each other.
I've added a rectangle around it to make it stand out.

transformrotate(angle [, cx, cy])
Rotates the element by angle degrees clockwise. If you provide cx and cy, it rotates around that point; otherwise, it rotates around the origin (0,0).

translate(tx [, ty])
Moves (shifts) the element by tx units horizontally and ty units vertically. If ty is omitted, it's assumed to be 0.
Embed external image
The image tag can be used to embed images. It supports the emebedding of other SVG files and PNG and JPEG images.
Certain features do not work when using the img tag to display an SVG file, specifically the embedding of other images in the SVG file using the image tag that we'll see later. Using object solves this problem.

Pie chart
I created the SVG file with the rectangle in VS Code and then asked co-pilot to: "add a piechart to the svg file". It created this example and gave me an explanation of it.
Then I asked it to "Write a python function that will get the segments as parameters and will generate a similar SVG file" and it created a nice one though it did not use any 3rd party library.
So I asked "is there a 3rd party library that could be used instead of implementing the creation of the chart?"
It suggested Pygal, Matplotlib, and Plotly.

<path d="M0 400 H1200 V600 H0" fill="#477050"/>
</svg>
A path can be used to define complex shapes, but in this case the shapes are rather simple. 3 rectangles.
In the path element we can provide commands.
Mmeans move to (x,y) coordinates. So the first line say Move to coordinates (0, 0).Hmeans move horizontally to the x coordinate. So H1200 means move to (1200, 0).Vmeans move vertically to the y coordinate So V200 means to move (1200, 200).H0means move to the x=0 coordinate.
Each path element also has a color associated with it in the fill attribute.
- Using
rectIn this solution we draw 3 rectangles of the appropriatewidth,heightplacing them at variousycoordinates (xdefaults to 0) and filling them with the appropriate color.

SVG generated programmatically

SVG generated by JavaScript
TODO
See SVG with JavaScript examples.
SVG using Perl
You can also generate SVG using a Perl module called, SVG and a plethora of other SVG related modules.
I assume that if you would like to use Perl then you know how to install the SVG module from CPAN, so I'll just show a number of examples.
TODO: See more SVG in Perl examples.
Default SVG
Probably the most basic use of the module is to generate an SVG image without any content.
After loading the module we create an instance using the new method and then render the SVG using the xmlify method.
You can print the resulting string to the screen as we do in this example or you could have saved it in a file directly. It all depends on your use-case.
use strict;
use warnings;
use SVG;
my $svg= SVG->new();
print $svg->xmlify();
The generated SVG looks like this: (I added some newlines to make the lines shorter to fit on the page).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd">

</svg>
It has a lot of text besides what is strictly necessary.
There are the xml and DOCTYPE tags
The svg tag has xmlns, xmlns:svg, xmlns:xlink fields besides height and width.
After that there is a comment with the giving credit to the Perl module and the original author of the module.
You can keep these or you can make the SVG file a bit smaller by removing some of the unnecessary parts.
Plain SVG: inline and without credits
Inline SVG and no credits
Passing the -inline flag to the new method will remove the xml, DOCTYPE tags.
Passing the -nocredits flag will remove the comment with the credit.
I could not find a way to totally eliminate the xmlns:svg and xmlns:xlink attributes.
use strict;
use warnings;
use SVG;
my $svg= SVG->new(-nocredits => 1, -inline => 1);
print $svg->xmlify();
The resulting SVG (after adding some newlines to make all the rows fit on the screen):
<svg height="100%" width="100%"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />
Inline SVG and no credit at load time
Alternatively we could set the -inline and -nocredits parameters when we first load the module into memory.
That will change the default behaviour of the library and thus in we don't need to pass the flags to the constructor.
use strict;
use warnings;
use SVG (-nocredits => 1, -inline => 1);
my $svg= SVG->new();
print $svg->xmlify();
The resulting SVG is the same as in the prevous case.
<svg height="100%" width="100%"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
