mds-icon

How to use

This component is intented to be used only with svg files. In order to properly work, you need to tell the component the path to the svg file directory.

Via sessionStorage (recommended)

The simplest way to instruct the component is using window.sessionStorage('mdsIconPath', <path-to-svg-directory>). For example, if your svg directory is located in assets/img/svg, you should put the following code in your application

window.sessionStorage('mdsIconPath', 'assets/img/svg/');

The path to the directory is based on how the assets are handled by the framework you are using.

Via setSvgPath stencil method

Another way would be, after you have called defineCustomElements() of this component, to instantiate a temporary MdsIcon DOM node element to call the setSvgPath class method

const mdsIconGet = async () => {
  // Wait for the web component to be defined
  await customElements.whenDefined('mds-icon')
  // Create an instance of mds-icon
  const mdsIcon = document.createElement('mds-icon')
  // Append element to body
  document.body.appendChild(mdsIcon)
  // Check for method existance and set svg directory path
  if ('setSvgPath' in mdsIcon) {
    mdsIcon.setSvgPath('/assets/img/svg/')
  }
  // Remove element from body
  document.body.removeChild(mdsIcon)
}

mdsIconGet()
