parsePath() - Remotion

Part of the @remotion/paths package. Available from v3.3.40

Parses an SVG string path into an array of Instruction's.

tsx

import { parsePath } from "@remotion/paths";

const newPath = parsePath("M 10 10 L 20 20");

/*
  [
    { type: "M", x: 10, y: 10 },
    { type: "L", x: 20, y: 20 },
  ]
*/

This function will throw if the SVG path is invalid.

Return type type

An array of Instruction's. The Instruction type can also be imported from @remotion/paths:

import type { Instruction } from "@remotion/paths";

The type has the following shape:

export type Instruction =
  | {
      type: "M";
      x: number;
      y: number;
    }
  | {
      type: "L";
