Is there already a canvas drawing directive for AngularJS out there?

Question

Is there already a directive to draw/paint things on a canvas? So you can implement something like Paint or even something bigger like Photoshop etc., but a very basic example would suffice.

I haven't found one in my search and if there's already one that is considered best practice I would like to use it. Else I have to implement one myself.

Ok I did one and it is actually pretty easy:

app.directive("drawing", function(){
  return {
    restrict: "A",
    link: function(scope, element){
      var ctx = element[0].getContext('2d');

      // variable that decides if something should be drawn on mousemove
      var drawing = false;

      // the last coordinates before the current move
      var lastX;
      var lastY;

      element.bind('mousedown', function(event){
        if(event.offsetX!==undefined){
          lastX = event.offsetX;
          lastY = event.offsetY;
        } else { // Firefox compatibility
          lastX = event.layerX - event.currentTarget.offsetLeft;
          lastY = event.layerY - event.currentTarget.offsetTop;
        }

        // begins new line
        ctx.beginPath();

        drawing = true;
      });
      element.bind('mousemove', function(event){
        if(drawing){
          // get current mouse position
          if(event.offsetX!==undefined){
            currentX = event.offsetX;
            currentY = event.offsetY;
          } else {
            currentX = event.layerX - event.currentTarget.offsetLeft;
            currentY = event.layerY - event.currentTarget.offsetTop;
          }

          draw(lastX, lastY, currentX, currentY);

          // set current coordinates to last one
          lastX = currentX;
          lastY = currentY;
        }

      });
      element.bind('mouseup', function(event){
        // stop drawing
        drawing = false;
      });

      // canvas reset
      function reset(){
       element[0].width = element[0].width; 
      }

      function draw(lX, lY, cX, cY){
        // line from
        ctx.moveTo(lX,lY);
        // to
        ctx.lineTo(cX,cY);
        // color
        ctx.strokeStyle = "#4bf";
        // draw it
        ctx.stroke();
      }
    }
  };
});

And then you can use it on canvas like this:

<canvas drawing></canvas>
