I have ~400 svgs in my project that i'm trying to incorporate into my
documentation that I've started writing with sphinx. The problem is
that I can't get either the 0.5.1 or the latest code from hg to work,
as it appears to generate an <img> tag, and at least in firefox I need
to generate an <object> tag with the appropriate parameters.
I looked in the htmlwriter.py source, and it seems that code
generation for an image node is passed off to the BaseTranslator,
which in this case appears to be HTMLTranslator from
docutils.writers.html4css1.
There was a discussion on this topic in the sphinx-dev list around the
middle of November, but it doesn't appear a conclusion was reached.
So I'm trying to figure out if I should hack on the overall
HTMLTranslator, and add in a special case of explicitly generating
HTML when the image type is SVG (and passing it to the docutils
HTMLTranslator otherwise), or perhaps create a pre-processing step
that will convert SVGs into PNGs for inclusion.
Other than that, Sphinx is amazing, thanks for all the effort put into
such a great tool,
...Eric
