Importing Iconify icon set
This tutorial is part of import functions documentation in Iconify Tools.
There is no special function for importing icon set because it is redundant. All you have to do is read content from file, parse JSON data and create new IconSet instance.
Example
example.ts
import { promises as fs } from 'fs';
import { IconSet, validateIconSet, cleanupSVG } from '@iconify/tools';
(async () => {
// Read data, parse JSON
const rawData = JSON.parse(
await fs.readFile('files/arty-animated.svg', 'utf8')
);
// Validate icon set
const validatedData = validateIconSet(rawData);
// Create new IconSet instance
const iconSet = new IconSet(validatedData);
// Clean up icons
await iconSet.forEach(
async (name) => {
const svg = iconSet.toSVG(name);
if (!svg) {
// Bad icon
iconSet.remove(name);
return;
}
// Wrap in try...catch to catch errors
try {
// Clean up and validate
await cleanupSVG(svg);
// Update icon data in icon set
iconSet.fromSVG(name, svg);
} catch (err) {
console.error(`Error parsing ${name}:`, err);
iconSet.remove(name);
}
},
['icon']
);
// Done. Do other stuff...
})();
