fabricjs: v2.2.1 Where are SVG paths stored on fabric object if only a single path exists on SVG - svg

Question

I am upgrading fabricjs in my app from version 1.7.22 to 2.2.1.
I am mainly working with SVG objects that I am creating in Illustrator. Then in the app I am manipulating paths within the SVG objects.
In v1.7.22, the svg paths would be under a 'paths' property for each object...
Now with 2.2.1, I see that 'paths' is gone, and there is an '_objects' property.
This is all good.
My problem is that the '_objects' property exists only if there is more than 1 path on the SVG object, otherwise, I can't see where the SVG path is stored.
So if it's like this...
...then '_objects' property exists.
But if it's like this...
..then no '_objects' property.
So if there is an SVG object made with only a single path, where is the path stored in the fabric object?

Answer 1

As it is mentioned in doc groupSVGElements, it returns a fabric.Object (if svg contains one path)/ fabric.Group(if svg contains more than one path).
And stated in change log fabric.PathGroup has been removed.
If it contains more than one path, creates a fabric.Group object containing all the Path objects, else returns only the path object.
To get the path use object.path.

var canvas = new fabric.Canvas('c');

fabric.loadSVGFromString(svg, function(objects, options) {
var shape = fabric.util.groupSVGElements(objects, options);
console.log(shape.type)
if(shape.type == 'group'){
shape.forEachObject(function(obj){
console.log(obj.path)
})
}
else if(shape.type == 'path'){
console.log(shape.path)
}
canvas.add(shape);
document.getElementById('label').innerHTML = "Object is " + shape.type ;
});
