Partial solution to remove ImageMagick dependency (#46) #61

Closed heyzec closed 3 years ago

mateosss commented 3 years ago

I'm using a distro derived from Ubuntu 18.04 and a sudo apt install inkscape gets you Inkscape 0.92.3 (2405546, 2018-03-11) which seems to not have the --export-filename flag thus Matter is failing.

This is the output I get, I added extra prints prefixed with >>>. I also removed the 2>/dev/nullin the inkscape cmd. is it too verbose if you don't silence inkscape stderr? it could be useful for future issues.

Oops, I didn't realise all that created so many notifications. Anyways, the script should now be working, do take a look :D

Thank you! this is very useful.

I just noticed (a bit late :sweat_smile:) that the PNGs that were being produced were not correct (color and padding were not being applied) I tried it with both inkscape 1.0.2 and inkscape 0.92.3 with the same results.

I commented out the usage of inkscape_convert_svg2png for now.

Hmm, that's odd. I tried a clean install on Ubuntu using both inkscape versions and it works for me. What's the output when you run the command which inkscape?

mateosss commented 3 years ago 
~ $ which inkscape
/usr/bin/inkscape
~ $ inkscape --version
Inkscape 0.92.3 (2405546, 2018-03-11)

Maybe it is something with my setup, it seems that the temp.svg file is not getting the fill nor the transform properties written. I'll have a look at it later.

This is now working, solved in https://github.com/mateosss/matter/commit/3ab56e1540e4fe6112be4ff63d77f36d103b6b27 For some reason elements = root.findall(...) was returning an empty list.
