SVG Sprite Module

Optimized and Easy way to use SVG files in Nuxt.js

Sprites help increase speed, maintain a consistent development workflow, and make the creation of icons much faster. SVG sprites are typically created using icons of a similar shape or form whereas larger scale graphics are one-off applications.

Demo: https://codesandbox.io/s/github/nuxt-community/svg-sprite-module/

Installation

yarn add @nuxtjs/svg-sprite
# or
npm i @nuxtjs/svg-sprite

Usage

Add @nuxtjs/svg-sprite to modules section of nuxt.config.js:

{
  modules: [
    '@nuxtjs/svg-sprite',
 ]
}

Place your svg files in ~/assets/sprite/svg/, say sample.svg and use your image with globally registered svg-icon component:

<svg-icon name="sample" />

To create different sprites, create custom directory inside ~/assets/sprite/svg/ and put your svg files inside it and place directory tile before icon name (example: ~/assets/sprite/svg/my-sprite/my-image.svg):

<svg-icon name="my-sprite/my-image" />

Options

Module default options:

{
  input: '~/assets/sprite/svg',
  output: '~/assets/sprite/gen',
  defaultSprite: 'icons'
}

You can update them with the svgSprite option in nuxt.config.js:

export default {
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/svg-sprite'],
  svgSprite: {
    input: '~/assets/svg/'
  }
}
