How to use the resulting SVG on GitHub markdown

[ahmetb]

It looks like the SVG in the README of termtosvg uses github.io to host the SVG.

When the ![](./img/foo.svg) syntax used, the rendered GitHub HTML does not actually animate the SVG. :(

It seems like Github is restricting this ––but not when you do <p><img src='//example.com/foo.svg'></p>?

Yeah, it's weird that it does not work when the image is inside the repository... The easiest way around this is to either use https://rawgit.com/ or setup a GitHub pages website for you repository and host the animation there.

I ran into the same problem, see this stackoverflow post for a more detailed explanation (and multiple ways to get around it). Apparently it's disabled due to potential cross site scripting vulnerabilities.

github.io is the preferred workaround.

Thanks for the answers. Closing this since it's not actionable. Feel free to add a note to README as you see fit.

This issue is getting many more views than others so I'm temporarily reopening it to add that since #86 was resolved, SVG animations produced by termtosvg can be included in a markdown file simply like so:

![Example](./docs/examples/awesome_window_frame.svg)

You just have to have the mardown file and the SVG in the same repository. This is exactly how it's done in README.md : https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg/blame/0.9.0/README.md#L8

Please open an issue if you still can not use the animations the way you'd like.
