blaze-svg uses blaze-markup to provide a SVG combinator library. blaze-markup is a fast combinator library which was derived from blaze-html.

Example Usage

Look at the examples in the Examples folder.

{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
module Example where
import Text.Blaze.Svg11 ((!))
import qualified Text.Blaze.Svg11 as S
import qualified Text.Blaze.Svg11.Attributes as A
import Text.Blaze.Svg.Renderer.String (renderSvg)

main :: IO ()
main = do
  let a = renderSvg svgDoc
  putStrLn a

svgDoc :: S.Svg
svgDoc = S.docTypeSvg ! A.version "1.1" ! A.width "150" ! A.height "100" ! A.viewbox "0 0 3 2" $ do
    S.rect ! A.width "1" ! A.height "2" ! A.fill "#008d46"
    S.rect ! A.width "1" ! A.height "2" ! A.fill "#ffffff"
    S.rect ! A.width "1" ! A.height "2" ! A.fill "#d2232c"

This produces the output below (formatted for readability)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" width="150" height="100" viewBox="0 0 3 2">
  <rect width="1" height="2" fill="#008d46" />
  <rect width="1" height=" 2" fill="#ffffff" />
  <rect width="1" height="2" fill="#d2232c" />
</svg>

Documentation

• API Reference
• blaze-html Tutorial by Jasper. Although this is more of a tutorial about blaze-html, a sister library to blaze-svg, it is still useful to get an overview of how to use the combinators.
