psd2svg 0.1.0a7.post1

Convert PSD file to SVG file

PSD to SVG converter based on psd-tools2 and svgwrite.

Install

Use pip to install:

pip install psd2svg

To use AWS S3 storage backend:

pip install boto3

Usage

The package comes with a command-line tool:

psd2svg input.psd output.svg

When the output path is a directory, or omitted, the tool infers the output name from the input:

psd2svg input.psd output/  # => output/input.svg
psd2svg input.psd          # => input.svg

When --export-resource flag is specified, all png resources are exported to the path specified by --resource-prefix:

psd2svg input.psd output.svg --export-resource
# => output.svg, xxx1.png, ...

psd2svg input.psd output/ --export-resource
# => output/input.svg, output/xxx1.png, ...

psd2svg input.psd output/ --export-resource --resource-prefix=resources/
# => output/input.svg, output/resources/xxx1.png, ...

psd2svg input.psd svg/ --export-resource --resource-prefix=../png/
# => svg/input.svg, png/xxx1.png, ...

To render text in vector stroke:

psd2svg input.psd output/ --text-mode text

The tool can specify URL instead of file path (S3 requires boto3):

psd2svg http://example.com/input.psd
psd2svg s3://bucketname/path/to/input.psd s3://bucketname/path/to/output/

API

The package contains high-level conversion function psd2svg:

from psd2svg import psd2svg

psd2svg('path/to/input.psd', 'path/to/output/')

Test
