To get started quickly you can add liip-npm-icons
dependency to your project:
npm install @liip/npm-icons
Then create a config file .npm-iconsrc.json
and where you want to download your icons
{
"iconsPath": "./src/assets/icons",
}
Extended configuration
You would need to add the following variable to your .npm-iconsrc.json
{
"iconsPath": "./src/assets/icons",
"iconsSvgBaseUrl": "https://icons.liip.ch/icons",
"iconsJsonUrl": "https://icons.liip.ch/icons.json",
"iconsTypes": ["regular", "light"]
}
Basic command use
npx icons add <icon-name>
Vue 3 integration
Requirements:
- First we need to install vite-svg-loader to be able to use svg files as vue components:
npm install vite-svg-loader --save-dev
- Add svgLoader to
vite.config.js
import svgLoader from 'vite-svg-loader'
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [vue(), svgLoader()]
})
- Add the vue icon component
BaseIcon
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'
import BaseIcon from '@liip/npm-icons'
createApp(App)
.use(BaseIcon)
.mount('#app')
- Use the baseIcon component passing the icon name
<template>
<BaseIcon name="house" />
</template>
- (Optional) In case your icons are not located on-
/src/assets/icons
<template>
<BaseIcon name="house" iconsPath="/different/icons/path" />
</template>
Contribute

Update documentation
Our documentation is made with nuxt-content and the docs theme
If you want to make any changes you need execute the following commands:
cd docs

Deployment
The deployment is made with github pages using static files thanks to
nuxt generate.
If you want to deploy some changes just run npm run release

then answer yes to the question Do you want to build the docs?
then release-it will run nuxt generate
and commit the changes into the
