Extension repository

2009-10-31T07:35:46Z

Hannes: /* Extensions */ Added JessyInk to the list of extensions.

It would be very useful to have a central Internet repository for Inkscape extensions, similarly as Firefox has. This way, Inkscape could update installed extensions from the web site, with no need for the user to know if an extension is updated.

== Extensions ==

'''What extensions are there? We can start listing them here:'''
* [http://www.ekips.org/comp/inkscape/ Inkscape Effects] - Aaron Spikes set of extensions is now included in Inkscape.
* [[ExtrudeEffect]] - extrude polygons to "3d", also make "string art"
* [http://www.colibre.com.br/bin/view/Aurium/InkscapeCalendarShellScript InkscapeCalendarShellScript] - Create Calendars sucks or is impracticable if you do not have something that automatizes the process of to put the days organized in blocks of months to you. To format manually is easy, but this extension can help you on this too [Bash script, works for win32 with cygwin].
* [http://www.colibre.com.br/bin/view/Aurium/InkscapeAreaCuter InkscapeAreaCutter] - For Webdesigners, layout for sites, slice area into .png images. util! (pt_BR)
* [http://www.julienvitard.eu/ EQTeXSVG] - EQTeXSVG is an extension for Inkscape used to convert an inline LATEX equation into SVG path using Python.
* [http://www.kono.cis.iwate-u.ac.jp/~arakit/inkscape/inklatex.html InkLaTeX] Insert LaTeX text or equations into Inkscape.
* [http://www.iki.fi/pav/software/textext/ TexText] Embed re-editable LaTeX objects in SVG drawings.
* [http://math.univ-lille1.fr/~barraud/Inkscape/pathdeform/ PathDeform] - Here is an Inkscape extension whose purpose is to bend a path according to another one. Note: it was added to Inkscape 0.45 as "Pattern along Path".
* [http://www.inkbar.lineaire.net/ InkBar] - This is an Inkscape extension whose purpose is to draw EAN13 bar code.
* [http://technoargia.free.fr/swftools/ SWF output] - A little extension to save as Swf from Inkscape.
* [http://www.colivre.coop.br/Aurium/Puff Puff] - Fluffs elements! :-D
* [http://www.colivre.coop.br/Aurium/InkSudoku Sudoku Generator] - Generates Sudoku square with the solution ''(in a small square if you want)''.
* [[CalligraphedOutlineFill]] - helps to fill in the inside area of shapes drawn with the Calligraphy tool
* [http://edlab.die.unipd.it/Site4.html SlotStar] - helps to draw the star of slot of a winding of an electrical machine
* [http://richard.henwood.googlepages.com/inkscapelatexextension inkscapeLatexExtension] - Extract text in an inkscape drawing to a latex picture environment.
* [http://saws.googlecode.com s.a.w.s] - export the svg Inkscape file in valid xhtml / css files.
* [http://www.colivre.coop.br/Aurium/InkscapeGenerator Generator] - replace text and data to automatic generate files done for usage (like PDF, PS, JPG, etc...), based in a SVG template and a data file.
* [http://code.google.com/p/inkscape2tikz/ TikZ exporter] - Export SVG paths as TikZ/PGF code for use with LaTeX.
* [[FindMatch]] - Looks for paths that match the selected path and places all matches on the same layer.
* [http://xico.freeshell.org InkSyntax] A source code syntax highlighter plugin for Inkscape (wrapping [http://www.pygments.org pygments] and [http://www.andre-simon.de/doku/highlight/en/highlight.html highlight]).
* [http://sites.google.com/site/placeonpath/ Place Objects on Path] This extension places objects on a curve. Curve is object that has lowest z-order and must be a path. Distances between objects remain the same as they were before placing. If objects can't be placed on the curve because of their distances they'll be left in places. Objects will not be modified, clones are allowed. Arrange distances between your objects manually first as curve position and direction.
* [http://code.google.com/p/jessyink/ JessyInk] A collection of JavaScripts that can be embedded into an SVG file to produce slide shows on opening in a browser. Current releases of JessyInk include a number of inkscape extensions to assign effects, transitions and other aspects of the presentations.

'''For Programmers:'''

* [http://www.colivre.coop.br/bin/view/Aurium/InkBash Ink-Bash] - <nowiki>ShellScript</nowiki> Forever!
* [http://www.colivre.coop.br/bin/view/Aurium/InkMoz InkMoz] - the Bridge from Inkscape to Mozilla (Inkscape extension with Javascript and more)

== The Repository Specification ==

A website where programmers can publish their extensions, users can search by that, and an update program can access this updates.

=== The Website ===

Must Have:
* '''User Registration''': to allow upload, votes and comments
* '''Extension Validation''': when published, it is public, but the user must be notified that was not validated (the code must be viewed by an validator user). The software updater do not update non-validated versions.
** '''Validation Feedback''': the validator user must write why the extension was not validated.
** '''Extension Deletion''': the validator user can delete an extension or version when he found a malicious code. The upload user must be marked as a malicious user and the account must be blocked.
* '''Extension Search''': with filter, by any available data.
* '''User Votes and Comments for Extensions''': The user can vote and/or comment an extension version.
* '''Extension Bug-Traker''': today, third part extensions are in simple web-pages. The site may have a Bug-Traker to help all little scripts.
* '''User Extensions Requests''': a lot of users have ideas. Here is a good place for programers see and make that alive.
* '''Host a cool page for the extension''': allow introduction text, documenbtation, screenshots, examples, and '''i18n'''!
* '''Help the l10n of this extensions''': with a web interface, like pootle and provide the l10n file for the updater program.
* '''Provide Version Control''': A SVN account will be cool, but web uploads (by web-forms) can be transparently SVN commits.

=== The Extension Meta-Data ===

''The data in INX file and more some, like the O.S. and Inkscape version compatibility...''

The INX file will define the meta-data settable by that. If some extension uses multiples INX files to have more than one option in the menu, all INX files must be read to set the meta-data. The meta-data will be cached in a database to help the search. The DB only need the meta-data of the last validated version and the last non-validated (if that is newer).

=== The Update Program ===

* '''Search for New Extensions''': when the user request
* '''Update Extensions''': search for updates and install that
* '''Help the Code Validation''': for advanced users. Show the extension code and the diff if is that an update.
* '''Help the User Bug-Reporting''': that is not working! The user must say now! ''(When the Update Program be part of the Inkscape, the error window can have a button to submit a bug-report)''
* '''Must test the extension dependencies''': the user must know what is needed to install before try to use.

== Name Proposal ==

Propose a name for the Inkscape Extension Repository:

* '''The Factory'''
* '''Extension Factory'''
* '''INX Factory'''

''Why Factory? Because it is not only a repository. ;-)''

* '''The Furnace'''
''Because Fire & Coal (Passion & Knowledge) are your tools for creating the extensions''

Tools

2008-03-20T20:05:25Z

Hannes: /* JessyInk */

=== SVG Validator ===
A [http://jiggles.w3.org/svgvalidator/ validator service] (and downloadable tool) is provided by the [[W3C]]. It will complain about sodipodi or inkscape namespaced items in the document, unless you've exported to plain SVG.

=== SVG::Metadata ===
[http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/B/BR/BRYCE/SVG-Metadata-0.10.tar.gz Perl module and set of scripts] to help in adding and processing metadata in SVG files.

== Vectorize/trace ==
=== Potrace ===
[[Potrace]] is now embedded into Inkscape. You don't need to run it separately.
*[[Potrace|Using Potrace through Inkscape]]
*[http://potrace.sourceforge.net/ Potrace page at Sourceforge]

=== Autotrace and Frontline (alternatives to Potrace) ===
'''Autotrace''' an open source vectorization program by Martin Weber. That means you can convert bitmap images (like scans) to vector graphics. While not optimal for photos, it does good job on line art and poster-like images. Doesn't do too well with color.

Autotrace has some features not available in the embedded [[Potrace]] dialog in Inkscape. For example, there is a ''centerline'' switch that is especially usefull for tracing roads (in maps) or font characters.

'''Frontline''' is GUI frontend to Autotrace by Masatake Yamato. Frontline can be run as standalone aplication, but it can also be directly accessed from Inkscape and GIMP.

If you want to have tracing option, you have to install both Autotrace and Frontline before compiling Inkscape. Inkscape automatically detects these programs, and adds inline raster to vector conversion option to image menu.

Both Autotrace and Frontline can be downloaded from [http://autotrace.sourceforge.net/ Sourceforge]. Binaries are available for windows and linux.

=== Delineate ===
Front end written in java that does interesting things with color images.
*[http://delineate.sourceforge.net/ Delineate at Sourceforge]

== Convert to SVG ==
=== svg2pdf ===

This simple but useful application is kindly provided by Carl Worth ([http://cairographics.org/ cairo]).
==== How to obtain it: ====
git clone git://people.freedesktop.org/~cworth/svg2pdf
And to update it dive into newly created directory called '''''svg2pdf''''' and type this in console:
git pull
(You must of course have '''git''' package installed)

==== Building ====
If build-time dependencies are satisfied
librsvg and cairo
you only need to type
make

==== Usage ====
./svg2pdf input_file.svg output_file.pdf

Note: from version 0.46 Inkscape can both read and write PDFs directly from the open/save dialogs. These tools however allow this conversion where 0.46 is not available, and also provide a means of validating if bugs encountered are Inkscape related.

=== [[uniconvertor]] ===
UniConvertor is an universal vector graphics translator. The project uses sK1 engine to convert one format to another. Project has following import filters: CDR, CMX, AI, CGM, WMF, XFIG, SVG, SK, SK1, AFF and export filters: AI, SVG, SK, SK1, CGM, WMF.
*[http://sourceforge.net/projects/uniconvertor/ Uniconvertor]

=== ill2svg ===
ill2svg (Illustrator to SVG) is a small script that helps turn Adobe
Illustrator .ai files into SVG. While it doesn't always do a perfect job,
it can sometimes be of great help.

To use the program, just type:

<pre>ill2svg.pl [-l "string" -h] infile > outfile.svg

options:
-l specify the file's line-ending convention: dos, mac,
or unix; the default is unix

-h print this message and exit
</pre>

=== ai2svg.py ===
ai2svg (Illustrator to SVG, recoded in python) is as well a small script that helps turn Adobe Illustrator .ai files into SVG. The Python recode aims to help developers more familiar to python than perl, as well fixing some lacks from ill2svg.pl - supports dashes, layers, textboxes (ascii-latin), and joined pathes.

To use the program, just type:

<pre>python ai2svg.py drawing.ai

the result will appear as neighbour, named drawing.ai.svg

options:
--help print this message and exit
</pre>

available at http://www15.brinkster.com/nitrofurano/python/ (that .zip file, in the tools folder) (404 Page not found on 2007-10-15)

=== fig2vect ===

GIMP can be used to create nice textures to use in Inkscape or shapes that can be vectorized in Inkscape. Importing SVG drawings from Inkscape to GIMP allows you to do several effects by filling and stroking shapes.

There is a limited support for drag'n'drop between GIMP and Inkscape:
* path, can be drag'n'droped from Gimp path dialog to Inkscape
* pictures can be drag'n'droped from Gimp document history to Inkscape if it's in a file format that Inkscape understands.

*[http://www.gimp.org gimp.org]

=== ConversionSVG ===

ConversionSVG is a GUI that send command line to Inkscape to export in batch SVG to PNG, PS, PDF or EPS. It features a Wizard to help novice to use it. You can choose a size in pixels for your export and give some others parameters.
