💖 SRevie...:Synfig — User Contributed Perl Documentation 💖

okay bestie, sit down, grab your boba, because we're talking about SReview::Template::Synfig, a lil Perl module from the user-contributed Perl docs, and she is so good at her job, no cap. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

SReview::Template::Synfig — a module that takes a Synfig template and processes it into a PNG file. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use SReview::Template::Synfig qw/process_template/;
use SReview::Talk;
use SReview::Config::Common;

my $talk = SReview::Talk->new(talkid => ...);
my $config = SReview::Config::Common::setup();

process_template($input_svg_template, $output_png_filename, $talk, $config);

# now a PNG file is written to $output_png_filename

like, you literally just call process_template and a whole PNG shows up. main character energy fr fr. 👑

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the tea, bestie: SReview::Template::Synfig uses SReview::Template to take your input file and turn it into a templated Synfig file. then it runs synfig over that templated file to convert it into a PNG file at the location you gave it. two steps, one flawless glow-up. 💅

now about that input file — she's flexible, she contains multitudes:

• it can be a file chilling on the local file system, OR
• it can be an HTTP or HTTPS URL — and in that case, the template at that location gets downloaded first, transparently. you don't have to do a thing. she handles it. 🧚

---

✨ CONFIGURATION ✨

this module does a little vibe check on the following configuration values:

workdir

the location for temporary files that the module needs. aka where she keeps her stuff while she's cooking. 🍓

so yeah, that's the whole page — short, sweet, and absolutely iconic. go make some PNGs, bestie. 🌸

this lil doc drop is from perl v5.40.1 and it's dated 2026-02-15 — so you know it's fresh. 💜
