gulp.spritesmith
Convert a set of images into a spritesheet and CSS variables via gulp
This is the official port of grunt-spritesmith, the grunt equivalent of a wrapper around spritesmith.
Alternative output formats include SASS, Stylus, LESS, and JSON.
Retina support
As of gulp.spritesmith@3.5.0
, retina spritesheets/templates are supported. See the Retina parameters section for more information.

Breaking changes in 4.0.0
We are normalizing sprite variables even further to convert any non-alphanumeric/non-dash/non-underscore character to a delimiter character (e.g. -
). This allows us to support naming retina sprites with @2x
suffixes, to prevent regressions like grunt-spritesmith#137.
Breaking changes in 5.0.0
We have moved from spritesmith-engine-spec@1.1.0 to spritesmith-engine-spec@2.0.0. This means if you use an custom engine (e.g. gmsmith
, canvassmith
), then you will need to upgrade it.
npm install my-engine-smith@latest --save-dev
This is enables us to use streaming outputs from engines in a future release.
Additionally, we have added support for buffer
and stream
content for in-memory engines (e.g. pixelsmith
, canvassmith
) which resolves #53.
Breaking changes in 6.0.0
We have completed our integration with streaming outputs from engines. As a result, Vinyl img
files will have stream
contents which were previously buffers.
If your img
pipeline requires Buffer
contents, then this can be remedied via vinyl-buffer:
spriteData.img.pipe(imagemin());
var buffer = require('vinyl-buffer');
spriteData.img.pipe(buffer()).pipe(imagemin());
Getting Started
Install the module with: npm install gulp.spritesmith
var gulp = require('gulp');
var spritesmith = require('gulp.spritesmith');
gulp.task('sprite', function () {
var spriteData = gulp.src('images/*.png').pipe(spritesmith({
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.css'
}));
return spriteData.pipe(gulp.dest('path/to/output/'));
});
Continuing the pipeline
In addition to the spriteData
stream, we offer individual streams for images and CSS. This allows for image optimization and CSS minification.
var gulp = require('gulp');
var buffer = require('vinyl-buffer');
var csso = require('gulp-csso');
var imagemin = require('gulp-imagemin');
var merge = require('merge-stream');
var spritesmith = require('gulp.spritesmith');
gulp.task('sprite', function () {
var spriteData = gulp.src('images/*.png').pipe(spritesmith({
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.css'
}));
var imgStream = spriteData.img
.pipe(buffer())
.pipe(imagemin())
.pipe(gulp.dest('path/to/image/folder/'));
var cssStream = spriteData.css
.pipe(csso())
.pipe(gulp.dest('path/to/css/folder/'));
return merge(imgStream, cssStream);
});

Retina parameters
gulp.spritesmith
supports retina spritesheet generation via retinaSrcFilter
and retinaImgName
. If at least one of these is provided, then we will expect the other and enable retina spritesheet generation.
Repeated parameters have the same properties as above but are repeated for clarity with respect to retina spritesheets.
An example retina spritesheet setup can be found in the Examples section.
We receive both normal and retina sprites from the same gulp.src
so please include them in your original glob. (e.g. *.png
should include icon-home.png
and icon-home@2x.png
).
We strongly encourage using the @2x
suffix for retina sprites over -retina
or -2x
. There are known ordering issues caused when sharing a -
delimiter between sprite names and the retina suffix (see grunt-spritesmith#137).
- params
Object
- Container for gulp.spritesmith
parameters
- retinaSrcFilter
String|String[]
- Filepaths to filter out from incoming stream for our retina spritesheet
- This can be a glob as with
src
(e.g. sprite/*@2x.png
) - The path/glob used should line up with
gulp.src
(e.g. gulp.src('sprite/*.png')
, retinaSrcFilter: 'sprite/*@2x.png'
) - For example
sprites/*@2x.png
will filter out sprite1@2x.png
for a separate retina spritesheet
- Under the hood, we will group
sprite1.png
and sprite1@2x.png
as a group of normal/retina sprites
- retinaImgName
String

- By default this is the format inferred by
cssName's
extension
- For example
.styl -> stylus_retina
- For more format options, see our formatting library
- cssVarMap
Function
- Mapping function for each filename to CSS variable
- This will run through normal and retina spritesheets
- The name used for normal sprites dictates the group name for retina group variables (e.g.

}
}
If you are defining a Handlebars template, then you can inherit from an existing template via handlebars-layouts
(e.g. {{#extend "scss"}}
). An example usage can be found in the Examples section.
Example usages can be found as:
Variable mapping
The cssVarMap
option allows customization of the CSS variable names
If you would like to customize CSS selectors in the css
template, please see https://github.com/twolfson/spritesheet-templates#css
Your cssVarMap
should be a function with the signature function (sprite)
. It will receive the same parameters as sprites
from Templating except for escaped_image
, offset_x
, offset_y
, and px
.
cssVarMap: function (sprite) {
sprite.name = 'sprite_' + sprite.name;
}
Engines
An engine can greatly improve the speed of your build (e.g. canvassmith
) or support obscure image formats (e.g. gmsmith
).
All spritesmith
engines adhere to a common specification:
https://github.com/twolfson/spritesmith-engine-spec
This repository adheres to specification version: 2.0.0
Below is a list of known engines with their tradeoffs:
pixelsmith
pixelsmith
is a node
based engine that runs on top of get-pixels
and save-pixels
.
Key differences: Doesn't support uncommon image formats (e.g. tiff
) and not as fast as a compiled library (e.g. canvassmith
).
phantomjssmith
phantomjssmith
is a phantomjs based engine. It was originally built to provide cross-platform compatibility but has since been succeeded by pixelsmith
.
Requirements: phantomjs must be installed on your machine and on your PATH
environment variable. Visit the phantomjs website for installation instructions.
Key differences: phantomjs
is cross-platform and supports all image formats.
canvassmith
canvassmith
is a node-canvas based engine that runs on top of Cairo.
Requirements: Cairo and [node-gyp][] must be installed on your machine.
Instructions on how to install Cairo are provided in the [node-canvas wiki][].
[node-gyp][] should be installed via npm
:
npm install -g node-gyp
Key differences: canvas
has the best performance (useful for over 100 sprites). However, it is UNIX
only.
[node-canvas wiki]: (https://github.com/LearnBoost/node-canvas/wiki/_pages
[node-gyp]: https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-gyp/
gmsmith
gmsmith
is a gm
based engine that runs on top of either Graphics Magick or Image Magick.
Requirements: Either Graphics Magick or Image Magick must be installed on your machine.
For the best results, install from the site rather than through a package manager (e.g. apt-get
). This avoids potential transparency issues which have been reported.
Image Magick is implicitly discovered. However, you can explicitly use it via engineOpts
{
engineOpts: {
imagemagick: true
}
}
Key differences: gmsmith
allows for configuring image quality whereas others do not.
Examples
Algorithm
In this example, we are using the alt-diagonal
algorithm to guarantee no overlap if images overflow.
Configuration:
{
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.styl',
algorithm: 'alt-diagonal'
}
Output:
Engine
In this example, we are using the phantomjssmith
engine as an alternative to the pixelsmith
default.
Requirements:
Install phantomjssmith
to our node_modules
via npm install
.
npm install phantomjssmith
Alternatively, we can use --save
or --save-dev
to save to our package.json's dependencies
or devDependenices
.
npm install phantomjssmith --save
npm install phantomjssmith --save-dev
Configuration:
{
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.styl',
engine: phantomjssmith
}
Output:
Padding
The padding
option allows for inserting spacing between images.
Configuration:
{
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.styl',
padding: 20
}
Output:
Retina spritesheet
In this example, we will use generate a normal and retina spritesheet via the retinaSrcFilter
and retinaImgName
parameters.
Configuration:
{
retinaSrcFilter: ['images/*@2x.png'],
imgName: 'sprite.png',
retinaImgName: 'sprite@2x.png',
cssName: 'sprite.styl'
}
Normal spritesheet:
Retina spritesheet:
Handlebars template
In this example, we will use cssTemplate
with a handlebars
template to generate CSS that uses :before
selectors.
Template:
{{#sprites}}
.icon-{{name}}:before {
display: block;
background-image: url({{{escaped_image}}});
background-position: {{px.offset_x}} {{px.offset_y}};
width: {{px.width}};
height: {{px.height}};
}
{{/sprites}}
Configuration:
{
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.css',
cssTemplate: 'handlebarsStr.css.handlebars'
}
Output:
.icon-fork:before {
display: block;
background-image: url(sprite.png);
background-position: 0px 0px;
width: 32px;
height: 32px;
}
.icon-github:before {
Handlebars inheritance
In this example, we will extend the SCSS template to provide minimal variables. The JSON at the front comes from the original template and is required to provide consistent casing and default options.
Different block sections for each template are documented in:
https://github.com/twolfson/spritesheet-templates
Template:
{
// Default options
'functions': true,
'variableNameTransforms': ['dasherize']
}
{{#extend "scss"}}
{{#content "sprites"}}
{{#each sprites}}
${{strings.name}}: ({{px.x}}, {{px.y}}, {{px.offset_x}}, {{px.offset_y}}, {{px.width}}, {{px.height}}, {{px.total_width}}, {{px.total_height}}, '{{{escaped_image}}}', '{{name}}', );
{{/each}}
{{/content}}
{{#content "spritesheet"}}
${{spritesheet_info.strings.name_sprites}}: ({{#each sprites}}${{strings.name}}, {{/each}});
${{spritesheet_info.strings.name}}: ({{spritesheet.px.width}}, {{spritesheet.px.height}}, '{{{spritesheet.escaped_image}}}', ${{spritesheet_info.strings.name_sprites}}, );
{{/content}}
{{/extend}}
Configuration:
{
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.scss',
cssTemplate: 'handlebarsInheritance.scss.handlebars'
}
Output:
$fork: (0px, 0px, 0px, 0px, 32px, 32px, 64px, 64px, 'sprite.png', 'fork', );
$github: (32px, 0px, -32px, 0px, 32px, 32px, 64px, 64px, 'sprite.png', 'github', );
$twitter: (0px, 32px, 0px, -32px, 32px, 32px, 64px, 64px, 'sprite.png', 'twitter', );
$spritesheet-sprites: ($fork, $github, $twitter, );
$spritesheet: (64px, 64px, 'sprite.png', $spritesheet-sprites, );
Template function
In this example, we will use cssTemplate
with a custom function that generates YAML.
Configuration:
{
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.yml',
cssTemplate: function (data) {
var spriteObj = {};
data.sprites.forEach(function (sprite) {
var name = sprite.name;
spriteObj[name] = sprite;
delete sprite.name;
});
return yaml.safeDump(spriteObj);
}
}
Output:
fork:
x: 0
'y': 0
width: 32
height: 32
source_image: /home/todd/github/gulp.spritesmith/docs/images/fork.png
image: sprite.png
total_width: 64
total_height: 64
escaped_image: sprite.png
offset_x: -0.0

Cache busting
gulp.spritesmith
doesn't directly support cache busting but gulp-spritesmash
is a plugin that takes gulp.spritesmith's
output and generates cache busted filenames and CSS URLs. Here's an example usage:
https://github.com/MasterOfMalt/gulp-spritesmash
var gulp = require('gulp');
var buffer = require('vinyl-buffer');
var spritesmash = require('gulp-spritesmash');
var spritesmith = require('gulp.spritesmith');
gulp.task('sprite', function () {
return gulp.src('images/*.png')
.pipe(spritesmith({
imgName: 'sprite.png',
cssName: 'sprite.css'
}))
.pipe(buffer())
.pipe(spritesmash());
.pipe(gulp.dest('path/to/output/'));
});
