What is svgo?

The svgo npm package is a Node.js-based tool for optimizing SVG vector graphics files. SVGO stands for Scalable Vector Graphics Optimizer. It works by applying a series of transformations and optimizations to SVG files to reduce their size without affecting their visual quality. This is particularly useful for web development, where smaller file sizes can lead to faster load times and better performance.

What are svgo's main functionalities?

Minify SVG files

This feature allows you to minify SVG files by removing unnecessary data without affecting the rendering of the SVG. The code sample demonstrates how to use the optimize function to minify an SVG string.

const { optimize } = require('svgo');
const svgString = '<svg ...> ... </svg>';
const result = optimize(svgString, { path: 'path/to/svg/file.svg' });
console.log(result.data);

Remove specified attributes

This feature allows you to remove specified attributes from SVG elements. The code sample shows how to use the removeAttributesBySelector plugin to remove the 'fill' attribute from all elements that have it.

const { optimize } = require('svgo');
const svgString = '<svg ...> ... </svg>';
const result = optimize(svgString, {
  plugins: [
    {
      name: 'removeAttributesBySelector',
      params: {
        selector: '[fill]',
        attributes: 'fill'
      }
    }
  ]
});
console.log(result.data);

Prettify SVG files

This feature allows you to prettify SVG files by reformatting them with consistent indentation and spacing. The code sample demonstrates how to use the js2svg option with the pretty parameter set to true.

const { optimize } = require('svgo');
const svgString = '<svg ...> ... </svg>';
const result = optimize(svgString, {
  plugins: [
    'preset-default',
    'sortAttrs',
    {
      name: 'removeAttrs',
      params: { attrs: '(stroke|fill)' }
    }
  ],
  js2svg: { pretty: true }
});
console.log(result.data);
