aasvg-rs

A Rust port of aasvg, which converts ASCII art diagrams into SVG.

CLI Usage

cargo install aasvg-cli

# Convert a file
aasvg input.txt -o output.svg

# Or use stdin/stdout
cat input.txt | aasvg > output.svg

Library Usage

use aasvg::render;

let diagram = r#"
    +-----+     +-----+
    |     |---->|     |
    +-----+     +-----+
"#;

let svg = render(diagram);

The output SVG automatically supports light and dark mode via CSS prefers-color-scheme.

Attribution
