export-svg-loader

A webpack loader to convert SVGs to images built with svg-to-img.

Getting Started

Installation

To use export-svg-loader in your project, run:

npm install export-svg-loader -D

Note This project uses await/async then node v7.6.0 or greater it's required to work.

Usage

The loader may be configured to export a single or multiple extensions with varying dimensions.

• type - (Optional). Extension that svg file is going to be exported. Default to png.
• fileName - (Optional). A template string for the output file name. Defaults to [svg-file-name].[extension]. Also you can send as array to export multiple images.
• sizes - (Optional). Used to export multiple images for a single input SVG. Holds an array of sizes. Size entries may be formatted like [height]xwidth. Also can send as string for one unique export or just number for square dimensions.
• publicPath: (Optional). Places where the image is going to be exported. It's necessary to set as relative path to output.

Example - converting a svg to png:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      { test: /\.svg$/, use: ['export-svg-loader'] }
    ];
  }
}

Example - converting a svg to ico and saving the image as example.jpeg:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            type: 'ico'
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}

Example - converting a svg to jpeg and saving the image as example.jpeg:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            type: 'jpeg',
            fileName: 'example'
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}

Example - resizing a svg proportionally and converting it to webp in dist/images folder :

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            type: 'webp',
            publicPath: 'dist/images'
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}

Example - converting a svg to png with width 40 and height 30:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            sizes: ['40x30']
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}

Example - converting a svg to png with width 40 and height 40 as number:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            sizes: 40
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}

Example - converting a svg to png with the follow sizes: 30x30, 40x40, 70x90:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            sizes: ['30x30', '40x40', '70x90']
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}
 

Note - If we don't specify an array of custom name it will generate images with the width dimension. Example: icon30.png, icon40.png and icon70.png

Example - converting a svg to png with the follow sizes: 30x30, 40x40, 70x90 and an array of custom names:

module.exports = {
  //...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.svg$/,
        use: {
          loader: 'export-svg-loader',
          options: {
            sizes: ['30x30', '40x40', '70x90'],
            fileName: ['image30x30', 'image40x40', 'image70x90']
          }
        }
      }
    ];
  }
}
