Svggloo

Svggloo is a tool to perform a data-merge operation in an SVG file.

Quickstart

The tool expects the following inputs:

• an SVG file to use as a template (see template details in the dedicated section below)
• a data file with the same name as the template, but with a .csv extension. Each record in the data file will produce a new output.

Usage:

svggloo --field country --field state --field city --export \
  examples/quantifier/bike_lane_categories.svg

Specifics

Template

The template use the jinja2 syntax to perform replacements, therefore all variables in the template must be surrounded by {{}}, for instance {{name}}.

Data file

The data file must be a CSV file.

SVG Export

The SVG export is done using inkscape. If the program is not found ssvggloo will abort the operation.
