parseLinearGradient

Parse css linear-gradient return LinearGradient | null

parseRepeatingLinearGradient

Parse css repeating-linear-gradient return LinearGradient | null

If the gradient is without an angle, then returns 180deg according to the specification

If the color cannot be parsed, Unknown Color will be returned

isLinearGradientWithAngle

Checks if parsed gradient is gradient with angle e.g. linear-gradient(217deg, red, green)

isLinearGradientWithSideOrCorner

Checks if parsed gradient is gradient with side or corner e.g. linear-gradient(to left, red, green)

isLinearGradientWithInterpolation

Checks if parsed gradient is gradient with interpolation e.g. linear-gradient(in hsl, blue, red)

convertLinearGradient

Convert LinearGradient to SVGLinearGradient based on aspect ratio. If it is impossible to convert, writes a warning to the console and returns null

Does not support

• repeatable gradient
• interpolation gradient
• if there are less than two colors in the gradient
• color hint e.g. linear-gradient(red, 30%, blue);
• color length except percentage

getSvgColor Default css to svg color converter. The named color is returned as is. (Don't check if color is supported in svg). Supports HEX, RGB, HSL colors.

Uses the functions described above to convert a css linear gradient to an svg gradient
