Config

// svgpipe.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "svgpipe";

export default defineConfig({
  baseDir: ".svgpipe", // that's the default
  modules: [
    {
      input: "./assets/svgs/logos",
      output: "output/svgs/logos", // relative to the base dir
      strategy: "vue-inline", // use builtin strategy with no options
    },
    {
      input: "./assets/svgs/icons",
      output: "output/svg/icons",
      svgo: {
        multipass: true, // optionally change svgo options
      },
      strategy: [
        "vue-inline", // Array syntax to pass options to the strategy
        {
          componentName: "BaseIcon",
          componentPath: "./components",
        },
      ],
    },
    {
      input: "./assets/svgs/",
      output: "output/svg/graphics",

Strategies

Build in

vue-inline

Creates a vue component that imports all SVGs. This components depends on vite-svg-loader.

Example output

Options

Property	Default	Note
componentName	"BaseIcon"
componentPath	"/components"
typePath	"/types"	Pass an empty string to define the type in the component file.
tokenPath	""	Generates a array with all the token names. Pass an empty sring to skip this file.

default

Just outputs the processed SVGs.

Create custom

• A strategy provides options to svgo via the options property. The user options are passed into the constructor.
• A strategy receives all processed SVG files as an argument in the process method
• A strategy provides all files that will be written to disk via the files property

import type { IFile, IStrategy, CombinedModuleConfig } from "svgpipe";
import { File } from "svgpipe";

export interface MyOptions {
  foo: string;
}

export class MyStrategy implements IStrategy {
  options: CombinedModuleConfig<MyOptions>;
  files: IFile[] = [];

  constructor(options: CombinedModuleConfig<MyOptions>) {
    // Optional: apply default to options
    this.options = options;
  }

  process(files: IFile[]) {
    // Optional: Do something with the files or just add them to the files array
    this.files = files;

    // Optional: Add a new file
    const myFile = new File({
      content: "My component content",
      extension: "tsx",
      name: "MyComponent",
      path: this.options.module.output!,
    });

    this.files.push(myFile);
  }
}
