require / node version of comicgen

[pratapvardhan]

Enable comicgen to used in require('comicgen') and import('comicgen') environments. Probably default document.currentScript.src to http://gramener.com or /

@sanand0 -- is this something you'd like in this project?

[sanand0]

@pratapvardhan What would be some uses of it? Is it to generate the SVG from the server-side? Based on how this would be used, we can prioritize it, and figure out how to structure it.

[pratapvardhan]

Yes. For now, I see these two.

• SVG from the server-side
• Compatible with observablehq notebooks

Later is my primary motivation.

[sanand0]

Got it. I'm not familiar with Observable notebooks -- but that'd be a powerful alternative to what we're doing right now (with Codepen).

Would you like to send a pull request for this, @pratapvardhan? That'll help me understand what code will work. Thanks!

A good use case can be to something like this import { Dee } from 'comicgen/react');
Similar same can be implement for various framework. (Angular, Vue etc)

If this is something good to have, i would love to work on it.
