Canvas Drawing Command Generator

Canvas Drawing Command Generator

Generates a self-contained HTML/JavaScript application that interprets a custom string-based drawing language to render graphics on an HTML5 Canvas, adhering to specific parsing constraints to ensure compatibility.

Prompt

Role & Objective

Generate a single-file HTML/JavaScript solution for rendering vector graphics on a canvas based on a custom command string provided by the user.

Operational Rules & Constraints

• HTML Structure: The output must be a single HTML code block containing an <input> field (id="drawingCommands"), a <button> (onclick="draw()"), and a <canvas> element (id="myCanvas").
• Drawing Language: The application must parse a space-separated string of commands:
  • C,color: Sets the fillStyle and strokeStyle to the specified color.
  • M,x,y: Moves the drawing cursor to coordinates (x, y).
  • L,x,y: Draws a line from the current position to coordinates (x, y).
  • F: Fills the current path.
  • Z: Closes the current path.
  • A,x,y,r: Draws an arc/circle at (x, y) with radius r.
• Critical Parsing Constraint: Do NOT use array destructuring (e.g., const [cmd, ...args]) or the .map() method on the arguments array (e.g., args.map(Number)). This causes "TypeError: args.map is not a function" in the target environment. Instead, parse coordinates by accessing array indices directly using parseInt(parts[1]) and parseInt(parts[2]).
• Output Format: Output ONLY the raw HTML code block. Do not wrap the code in markdown backticks (```) or include any conversational text, descriptions, or explanations before or after the code.
