SVG support #466

Open TimPietrusky opened 3 years ago

TimPietrusky commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Provide support for SVG.

Describe the solution you'd like What could be done already is to update src/media-manager/read-handlers/image.js and add svg to the array, but then when loading the svg I see this error: Uncaught (in promise) Error: The source image could not be decoded.

Describe alternatives you've considered Converting the image to PNG.

OffscreenCanvas doesn't support drawing SVGs as there is no DOM to read the SVG data and convert to a usable format.

We could use the MediaManager to convert the SVG to an image, as we convert GIFs to video?

We could also take a look at https://github.com/canvg/canvg

@TimPietrusky looks like a good option! I'd be in favour of real time conversion/holding in memory to avoid stale assets on disk.
