Cairo graphics samples ported to Ruby/ RCairo

Hi Everyone,

Over the past couple of days, I ported the C samples from the Cairo website to Ruby using RCairo.

These are on my blog at: https://notepad.onghu.com/2021/cairo-samples-in-ruby/
All the code is available at: GitHub - mohits/rcairo_samples: RCairo port of sample code from the Cairographics website

Separately, I have a question about the last sample:
https://www.cairographics.org/samples/text_extents/

If you're using Cairo in Ruby, I'd love to hear from you.

If Kouhei is on the group, thanks for creating RCairo :slight_smile:

Thanks & Best Regards,
Mohit.

Over the past couple of days, I ported the C samples from the Cairo
website to Ruby using RCairo.

These are on my blog at:
Cairo with Ruby - Samples using RCairo
All the code is available at: GitHub - mohits/rcairo_samples: RCairo port of sample code from the Cairographics website

Thanks!

Separately, I have a question about the last sample:
https://www.cairographics.org/samples/text_extents/

I think that this is just for showing values in
Cairo::TextExtents. So the original sample isn't wrong.

If Kouhei is on the group, thanks for creating RCairo :slight_smile:

I'm on here (and cairo@cairographics.org too).
I'm the current maintainer not the original author but
thanks. :slight_smile:

Thanks,

Thanks Kouhei. I am now also creating a separate post for "porting" C code to Ruby/RCairo based on the experience of doing this one. I hope to publish that some time this week.

Best Regards,
Mohit.

I'm sorry I can't see the image you posted to the group. Based on Google translate, I think you asked:
> Can't open it? Is there a problem with the blog? Need to open cookies?

There is no problem from where I can check and it seems to be OK. I can still connect from here.

Best Regards,
Mohit.

While porting from the C API to the Ruby/ RCairo API, I wrote a number of notes and have documented these notes in a new post.

I'm hopeful someone will find it useful.
As always, comments welcome.

Best Regards,
Mohit.
