A command line tool to convert SVG files to symbols.

npx generate-svg-symbols -d ./path/to/svg/dir -o ./symbols.svg

This command will convert every SVG file found in the source directory to SVG symbol and put all the generated symbols into a single SVG file. This command generates SVG file by default, but you can wrap it to different files. The available wrappers are:

• svg Output a SVG file.
• ts Output a TypeScript file that export the SVG content as its default export.
• js Output a JavaScript file that export the SVG content as its default export.
• js-bundle Output a JavaScript file that will inject the SVG content to document.body automatically.

If you want to optimize the SVG content (remove redundant and useless information in the SVG content), you can install svgo to your project. If svgo is detected, the SVG content will be optimized with svgo before it get converted to SVG symbol automatically (to avoid this, you can use the --skipSvgo option).

Usage:
  generate-svg-symbols -d ./path/to/svg/dir

Options:
  -d --dir        Specify the directory
  -o --output     Specify output filename
  -w --wrapper    Specify output wrapper (svg, ts, js, js-bundle)
  -p --prefix     Specify the prefix of the id
  -c --class      Specify the class name
  -t --types      Generate TypesScript types (can be boolean or string)
  -a --attrs      Specify extra attributes to the svg tag
  -h --help       Print this help message
  --skipSvgo      Skip optimizing svg with svgo
  --skipComments  Skip generating comments for ts or js
  --keepXmlns     Keep xmlns attribute
  --keepVersion   Keep version attribute

You can also use the API to generate SVG symbols. For example:

import { generate } from 'generate-svg-symbols'

const { ids, names, symbols, svg } = generate({ dir: './svg' })

console.log(ids)
console.log(names)
console.log(symbols)
console.log(svg)
