Simple raster image tracer and vectorizer written in JavaScript.

ImageTracer.imageToTracedata()
, no need to initializeoptions
with hasOwnProperty: 0 values are not replaced with defaults, fixed polygons with coordinates x=0 or y=0options.roundcoords
: rounding coordinates to a given decimal place. This can reduce SVG length significantly (>20%) with minor loss of precision.options.desc
: setting this to false will turn off path descriptions, reducing SVG length.options.viewbox
: setting this to true will use viewBox instead of exact width and heightoptions.colorsampling
: color quantization will sample the colors now by default, can be turned off.options.blurradius
: setting this to 1..5 will preprocess the image with a selective Gaussian blur with options.blurdelta treshold. This can filter noise and improve quality.imagedataToTracedata()
returns image width and height in tracedatagetsvgstring()
needs now only tracedata and options as parameterscolorquantization()
needs now only imgd and options as parametersInclude the script:
<script src="imagetracer_v1.1.2.js"></script>
Then
// Loading smiley.png, tracing and calling alert callback on the SVG string result
ImageTracer.imageToSVG( 'smiley.png', alert );
More examples:
// Almost the same with options, and the ImageTracer.appendSVGString callback will append the SVG
ImageTracer.imageToSVG( 'smiley.png', ImageTracer.appendSVGString, { ltres:0.1, qtres:1, scale:10 } );
// This appends the SVG to an element with id="svgcontainer"
ImageTracer.imageToSVG(
'panda.png',
function(svgstr){ ImageTracer.appendSVGString( svgstr, 'svgcontainer' ); },
{ numberofcolors:4 }
);
// The helper function loadImage() loads an image to a canvas, then executing callback:
// appending the canvas to a div here.
ImageTracer.loadImage(
'panda.png',
function(canvas){ (document.getElementById('canvascontainer')).appendChild(canvas); }
);
// ImageData can be traced to an SVG string synchronously.
ImageTracer.loadImage(
'smiley.png',
function(canvas){
// Getting ImageData from canvas with the helper function getImgdata().
var imgd = ImageTracer.getImgdata( canvas );
// Synchronous tracing to SVG string
var svgstr = ImageTracer.imagedataToSVG( imgd, { scale:5 } );
// Appending SVG
ImageTracer.appendSVGString( svgstr, 'svgcontainer' );
}
);
// This will load an image, trace it when loaded, and execute callback on the tracedata:
// stringifying and alerting it here.
ImageTracer.imageToTracedata(
'smiley.png',
function(tracedata){ alert( JSON.stringify( tracedata ) ); },
{ ltres:0.1, qtres:1, scale:10 }
);
// imagedataToTracedata() is very similar to the previous functions. This returns tracedata synchronously.
ImageTracer.loadImage(
'smiley.png',
function(canvas){
// Getting ImageData from canvas with the helper function getImgdata().
var imgd = ImageTracer.getImgdata(canvas);
// Synchronous tracing to tracedata
var tracedata = ImageTracer.imagedataToTracedata( imgd, { ltres:1, qtres:0.01, scale:10 } );
alert( JSON.stringify( tracedata ) );
}
);
See nodetest folder. Example:
"use strict";
var fs = require("fs");
var ImageTracer = require(__dirname +'/../imagetracer_v1.1.2');
// This example uses https://github.com/arian/pngjs
// , but other libraries can be used to load an image file to an ImageData object.
var PNGReader = require(__dirname +'/PNGReader');
var file = __dirname + "/../testimages/1.png";
fs.readFile(file, function(err, bytes){
if (err) throw err;
var reader = new PNGReader(bytes);
reader.parse(function(err, png){
if (err) throw err;
// creating an ImageData object
var myImageData = { 'width':png.width, 'height':png.height, 'data':png.pixels };
// tracing
var options = { 'ltres':0.1 }; // optional
var svgstring = ImageTracer.imagedataToSVG( myImageData, options );
// writing to file
fs.writeFile(__dirname+"/test.svg", svgstring, function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(__dirname+"/test.svg was saved!");
});
});// End of reader.parse()
});// End of fs.readFile()

Function name | Arguments | Returns | Run type |
---|---|---|---|
imageToSVG | image_url /*string*/ , callback /*function*/ , options /*optional object*/ | Nothing, callback(svgstring) will be executed | Asynchronous |
imagedataToSVG | imagedata /*object*/ , options /*optional object*/ | svgstring /*string*/ | Synchronous |
imageToTracedata | image_url /*string*/ , callback /*function*/ , options /*optional object*/ | Nothing, callback(tracedata) will be executed | Asynchronous |
imagedataToTracedata | imagedata /*object*/ , options /*optional object*/ | tracedata /*object*/ | Synchronous |
imagedata
is standard ImageData here, canvas
is canvas .
Function name | Arguments | Returns | Run type |
---|---|---|---|
appendSVGString | svgstring /*string*/, parentid /*string*/ | Nothing, an SVG will be appended to the container div with id=parentid. | Synchronous |
loadImage | url /*string*/, callback /*function*/ | Nothing, loading an image from a URL, then executing callback(canvas) | Asynchronous |
getImgdata | canvas /*object*/ | imagedata /*object*/ | Synchronous |
imagedata
is standard ImageData here, canvas
is canvas .
There are more functions for advanced users, read the source if you are interested. :)
Option name | Default value | Meaning |
---|---|---|
ltres | 1 | Error treshold for straight lines. |
qtres | 1 | Error treshold for quadratic splines. |
pathomit | 8 | Edge node paths shorter than this will be discarded for noise reduction. |
pal | No default value | Custom palette, an array of color objects: [ {r:0,g:0,b:0,a:255}, ... ] |
colorsampling | true | Enable or disable color sampling. |
numberofcolors | 16 | Number of colors to use on palette if pal object is not defined. |
mincolorratio | 0.02 | Color quantization will randomize a color if fewer pixels than (total pixels*mincolorratio) has it. |
colorquantcycles | 3 | Color quantization will be repeated this many times. |
blurradius | 0 | Set this to 1..5 for selective Gaussian blur preprocessing. |
blurdelta | 20 | RGBA delta treshold for selective Gaussian blur preprocessing. |
scale | 1 | Every coordinate will be multiplied with this, to scale the SVG. |
roundcoords | 1 | rounding coordinates to a given decimal place. 1 means rounded to 1 decimal place like 7.3 ; 3 means rounded to 3 places, like 7.356 |
viewbox | false | Enable or disable SVG viewBox. |
desc | true | Enable or disable SVG descriptions. |
lcpr | 0 | Straight line control point radius, if this is greater than zero, small circles will be drawn in the SVG. Do not use this for big/complex images. |
qcpr | 0 | Quadratic spline control point radius, if this is greater than zero, small circles and lines will be drawn in the SVG. Do not use this for big/complex images. |
layercontainerid | No default value | Edge node layers can be visualized if a container div's id is defined. |
The almost complete options object:
var options = {"ltres":1,"qtres":1,"pathomit":8,"colorsampling":true,"numberofcolors":16,"mincolorratio":0.02,"colorquantcycles":3,"scale":1,"simplifytolerance":0,"roundcoords":1,"lcpr":0,"qcpr":0,"desc":true,"viewbox":false,"blurradius":0,"blurdelta":20};
Adding custom palette. This will override numberofcolors.
options.pal = [{r:0,g:0,b:0,a:255}, {r:0,g:0,b:255,a:255}, {r:255,g:255,b:0,a:255}];
