Canvas2Svg

This library turns your Canvas into SVG using javascript. In other words, this library lets you build an SVG document using the canvas api. Why use it?

You have a canvas drawing you want to persist as an SVG file.
You like exporting things.
Because you didn't want to transform your custom file format to SVG.

How it works

We create a mock 2d canvas context. Use the canvas context like you would on a normal canvas. As you call methods, we build up a scene graph in SVG. Yay!

Usage

//Create a new mock canvas context. Pass in your desired width and height for your svg document.
var ctx = new C2S(500,500);

//draw your canvas like you would normally
ctx.fillStyle="red";
ctx.fillRect(100,100,100,100);
//etc...

//serialize your SVG
var mySerializedSVG = ctx.getSerializedSvg(); //true here, if you need to convert named to numbered entities.

//If you really need to you can access the shadow inline SVG created by calling:
var svg = ctx.getSvg();
