swarmauri_xmp_svg 0.1.1

SVG handler for embedding and extracting XMP packets in Swarmauri runtimes.

---

swarmauri_xmp_svg

swarmauri_xmp_svg provides the SVGXMP handler so vector graphics can embed, retrieve, and remove RDF/XML metadata via <metadata> elements.

Features

• Registry ready – derives from EmbedXmpBase so Swarmauri runtimes discover it through the dynamic registry.
• XML aware – uses ElementTree to place metadata deterministically as the first child of <svg>.
• Text fallback – gracefully injects raw strings when the SVG cannot be parsed structurally.

Installation

# pip
pip install swarmauri_xmp_svg

# uv
uv add swarmauri_xmp_svg

Usage

from pathlib import Path

from swarmauri_xmp_svg import SVGXMP

handler = SVGXMP()
svg_path = Path("example.svg")
xmp_packet = """<x:xmpmeta xmlns:x='adobe:ns:meta/'><rdf:RDF>...</rdf:RDF></x:xmpmeta>"""

# Insert metadata into the SVG root element
updated_bytes = handler.write_xmp(svg_path.read_bytes(), xmp_packet)
svg_path.write_bytes(updated_bytes)

# Read the packet back
restored_xml = handler.read_xmp(updated_bytes)
print(restored_xml)

# Remove it if necessary
clean_bytes = handler.remove_xmp(updated_bytes)

Why it works

• XML aware – parsing via ElementTree ensures metadata lands as the first child under <svg>.
• Resilient fallback – gracefully degrades to text insertion when the document cannot be parsed as XML.
• Registry ready – inherits from EmbedXmpBase, making runtime discovery effortless.
