Shapes exports to SVG without their identifiers

[evgeny-sureev]

The "id" attribute is lost after exporting from Macaw to SVG.

Could you please provide an example?

Consider this SVG:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" width="1005"
     height="640">
        <rect height="55" x="894" y="259" width="100" fill="#1ABD9D"
              id="dc1b6550-5770-4f44-8173-8449267b8fdf"/>
        <rect height="55" x="894" y="143" width="100" fill="#1ABD9D"
              id="bd7ae432-e619-42d4-8b36-07541e5b2da1"/>
</svg>

Now if we import svg into Macaw, we can access identifiers via tag property:

let svg = try SVGParser.parse(text: String(contentsOf: svgData))!
let rect = svg.contents[0]
print(rect.tag.first)
// prints 'dc1b6550-5770-4f44-8173-8449267b8fdf'

But after exporting to SVG back, all identifiers are lost:

print(SVGSerializer.serialize(node: svg))

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" width="1005"
     height="640">
        <rect height="55" x="894" y="259" width="100" fill="#1ABD9D"/>
        <rect height="55" x="894" y="143" width="100" fill="#1ABD9D"/>
</svg>

Hi Evgeny,

This issue fixed in the master branch and quite soon will be available in the 0.9.2 release.
