react-native-svg-from-uri

This is a fork of the unmaintained react-native-svg-uri library, originally written by Matias Cortes.

Render SVG images in React Native from an URL or a static file

This was tested with RN 0.52.0 and react-native-svg 6.3.1, which this library depends on.

Installation

Install library from npm

npm install react-native-svg-from-uri --save

Link the react-native-svg library

react-native link react-native-svg # not react-native-svg-from-uri !

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Note
source	ImageSource		Same kind of source prop that <Image /> component has
svgXmlData	String		You can pass the SVG as String directly
fill	Color		Overrides all fill attributes of the svg file

Known Bugs

• [ANDROID] There is a problem with static SVG file on Android, Works OK in debug mode but fails to load the file in release mode. At the moment the only workaround is to pass the svg content in the svgXmlData prop.
• Not all the svgs can be rendered, if you find problems fill an issue or a PR in order to contemplate all the cases

Usage

Here's a simple example:

import SvgUri from "react-native-svg-from-uri";

const TestSvgUri = () => (
  <View style={styles.container}>
    <SvgUri
      width="200"
      height="200"
      source={{
        uri: "http://thenewcode.com/assets/images/thumbnails/homer-simpson.svg"
      }}
    />
  </View>
);

or a static file

<SvgUri width="200" height="200" source={require("./img/homer.svg")} />

This will render:
