Obj-C SVG Parser

QuickSVG

Overview

QuickSVG is a simple SVG parser that has been designed to handle various SVG file formats.

QuickSVG relies heavily upon CAShapeLayers to properly render it's paths, thus making it easy to work with native layers after parsing.

Supported Elements

• Shapes
  • rect
  • circle
  • ellipse
  • path
  • polygon
  • line
  • polyline
• DOM
  • Symbols
  • Groups
  • Refs

Basic Usage

NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"/path/to/file.svg"];
QuickSVG *svg = [QuickSVG svgFromURL:url)];

[self.view addSubview:svg.view];

Asyncronous Usage

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
	[super viewDidLoad];
	
	NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"/path/to/file.svg"];
	QuickSVG *svg = [[QuickSVG alloc] initWithDelegate:self];
}

- (void)quickSVG:(QuickSVG *)quickSVG didParseElement:(QuickSVGElement *)element
{
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        [self.view addSubview:element];
    });
}

Testing

A sample application is included to test SVG rendering. Place any sample files in the folder Sample SVGs folder to have them automatically loaded in the RenderingTests app. Any included subfolders will automatically be nested within the navigation stack.
