GraphIcon

A Vue.js plugin/component to help you manage your icons seamlessly

Installation

npm install graphicon or yarn add graphicon

Usage

• Install the plugin:

  // Declare your icons
  import GIcon from 'graphicon' // or use `window.GraphIcon` in browsers
  
  // Here I use the svg-inline-loader for webpack to load contents of svg files
  // but you could any method that suits you
  // This will call `Vue.component('GIcon', GIcon)` internally (or with provided component name)
  Vue.use(GIcon, {
    'arrow-left': require('!svg-inline-loader!@/assets/icons/arrow-left.svg'),
    'arrow-right': [require('!svg-inline-loader!@/assets/icons/arrow-right.svg'), {...defaultSvgAttributes...}],
    // You can pass a `keepAttrs` key to keep attributes from the original svg tag.
    // The value can be either `true` to keep all attributes, or an array of keys to be kept.
    ...
  }/*, 'ComponentName' // (defaults: 'GIcon')  */)
  
  // Or just call at some point
  GIcon.setIcons({ ...your icons... })

• Then use GIcon in your components:

  <!-- the GIcon component will render as `<i class="GIcon" v-html="[icon content]"></i>` -->
  
  <!-- call with icon name -->
  <GIcon name="icon-name" :options="{...}"/>
  
  <!-- or with raw svg string -->
  <GIcon rawSvg="svg contents here" :options="{...}"/>
  
  <!-- or if you use font-awesome for example you can just pass classes down to GIcon -->
  <GIcon :class="fa-icon-name fa-..." />
  
  <!-- Since v1.1.0 you can control sizes with more ease.
  box-size & font-size will set the width, the height and the font-size of the <i>.
  See also options section below. -->
  <GIcon name="icon-name" box-size="2em" font-size="2em" />

  If you didn't install the plugin with Vue.use you'll have to declare the GIcon component first:

  import GIcon from 'graphicon'
  
  {
    ...
    components: {
      GIcon
    },
    ...
  }

Options

The options props of GIcon is an object containing attributes that will be merged to default attributes and passed to the root svg element of icons. The defaults attributes are the following:

{
  "xmlns": "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg",
  "width": "1em",
  "height": "1em",
  "viewBox": "0 0 24 24",
  "fill": "none",
  "stroke": "currentColor",
  "stroke-width": 2,
  "stroke-linecap": "round",
  "stroke-linejoin": "round"
}

Example

1. git clone the repo
2. run cd graphicon/test && vue serve src/main.js and it will serve an example app at localhost:8080 (require @vue/cli to be installed)
3. Enjoy 🎉
