react-image-element-loader

🖼️ The webpack loader to import React element and file path from images. 📦

import { element as LogoSVG } from "./logo.svg";
import photoImagePath from "./photo.jpg";

export default () => (
  <div>
    <LogoSVG width="230" height="140" fill="black" />
    <img src={photoImagePath} alt="flower" />
  </div>
);

Features

FEATURES WHAT YOU CAN DO
⚛️ Designed for JSX Import images as React element like <MySVG fill={color} />
Exported as plain image Import image paths or as inline image (Base64)
🎩 Type Safe You can use with TypeScript

Quick Start

Requirements

  • npm or Yarn
  • webpack 4.0.0 or higher

Installation

$ npm install -D react-image-element-loader

If you are using Yarn, use the following command.

$ yarn add -D react-image-element-loader

Setup

Firstly setup your webpack settings.

// webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
  entry: path.join(__dirname, "src", "index.jsx"),
  ...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.(png|jpe?g|gif|svg)$/,
        loader: "react-image-element-loader",
        exclude: /node_modules/,
      },
      ...
    ],
  },
  ...
};

Also you can pass a module to "loader" property instead.

// webpack.config.js
const reactImageElementLoader = require("react-image-element-loader");
...

{
  test: /\.(png|jpe?g|gif|svg)$/,
  loader: reactImageElementLoader,
  exclude: /node_modules/,
},

Usage

Gets image path

You can import image paths (URI).

import logoImagePath from "./logo.svg";
// or: const logoImagePath = require("./logo.svg").default;
import photoImagePath from "./photo.jpg";

export default () => (
  <div>
    <img src={logoImagePath} alt="logo" />
    <img src={photoImagePath} alt="photo" />
  </div>
);

Generally, the path is an actual image URL (through file-loader). When you use sizeLimit option and the image is smaller than sizeLimit , the path will be converted to inline image (Base64 encoded URL). For more detail, see sizeLimit option.

Gets React element

You can import images as React elements like <img /> . It's possible to pass props such as HTMLAttributes, but src will be ignored.

import { element as LogoSVG } from "./logo.svg";
// or: const LogoSVG = require("./logo.svg").element;
import { element as PhotoImage } from "./photo.jpg";

export default () => (
  <div>
    <LogoSVG fill="black" />

    <PhotoImage />
    <PhotoImage width="100" alt="flower" />

    {/* overwriting `src` will be ignored. */}
    <PhotoImage src="other-image.jpg" />
  </div>
);

react-image-element-loader supports PNG (.png), JPEG (.jpg), GIF (.gif), and SVG (.svg).

Options

sizeLimit

Type: Number Default: undefined

A number specifying the maximum size of an image file in bytes.

If the image is greater than the limit or sizeLimit option specified undefined, path will be an actual URL. In that case, file-loader is used by default and all query parameters are passed to it. Using an alternative to file-loader is enabled via the fallback option.

If the image is smaller than the limit, path will be a Base64 encoded URL.

// webpack.config.js
{
  loader: "react-image-element-loader",
  options: {
    sizeLimit: 10240,
  },
}

The limit can be specified via loader options and defaults to no limit.

jsx

Type: Boolean Default: false

Specifies to enable to output JSX codes instead of React.createElement function.

// webpack.config.js
{
  loader: "react-image-element-loader",
  options: {
    jsx: true,
  },
}

fallback

Type: String Default: file-loader

Specifies an alternative loader to use when a target image file's size exceeds sizeLimit option.

// webpack.config.js
{
  loader: "react-image-element-loader",
  options: {
    fallback: "responsive-loader",
  },
}

The fallback loader will receive the same configuration options as url-loader.

For example, to set the quality option of a responsive-loader above use:

{
  loader: "react-image-element-loader",
  options: {
    fallback: {
      loader: "responsive-loader",
      options: {
        quality: 85,
      },
    },
  },
}

Recipes

Styling SVG

If you import SVG images as React element, you can specify width , height , and fill attributes. So you can give styles for SVG using variables.

import { element as LogoSVG } from "./logo.svg";

export default (props) => (
  <div>
    <LogoSVG fill={props.color} />
  </div>
);

In this case, the SVG should not include child elements have fill .

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="62" height="58">
  <path fill="#000" d="M31 3.708L4.093 23.258l10.277 31.63h33.26l10.277-31.63L31 3.707z"/>
</svg>

Enables type definitions for TypeScript

If you want to enable type definitions for TypeScript, you should add "react-image-element-loader" to your tsconfig.json file.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "types": [
      "react-image-element-loader"
    ]
  }
}
