A scalable set of icons handcrafted with <3 by GitHub.
npm install @primer/octicons-react
``shell`
npm install @primer/octicons-react
The @primer/octicons-react module exports individual icons as named
exports. This
allows you to import only the icons that you need without blowing up your
bundle:
`jsx
import React from 'react'
import {BeakerIcon, ZapIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'
export default function Icon({boom}) {
return boom ?
}
`
If you were to compile this example with a tool that supports [tree-shaking][]
(such as Webpack, Rollup, or Parcel) the resulting bundle would only include
the "zap" and "beaker" icons.
By default the octicons have vertical-align: text-bottom; applied as inlineverticalAlign
styles. You can change the alignment via the prop, which can bemiddle
either , text-bottom, text-top, or top.
`js
import {RepoIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'
export default () => (
$3
You have the option of adding accessibility information to the icon with the
[
aria-label attribute][aria-label] via the aria-label prop.`js
// Example usage
import {PlusIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'export default () => (
)
`$3
You have the option of adding accessibility information to the icon with the
[
aria-labelledby attribute][aria-labelledby] via the aria-labelledby prop. Using aria-labelledby referencing the id values of the title element provides the accessible name.`js
// Example usage
import {PlusIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'export default () => (
)
`$3
You have the option of adding accessibility information to the icon with the
[
title attribute][title] via the title prop.$3
You have the option of adding information to the icon with the
[
id attribute][id] via the id prop.`js
// Example usage
import {PlusIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'export default () => (

`$3
You can add the
tabindex attribute to an SVG element via the tabIndex prop if the SVG element is intended to be interactive.
tabIndex prop also controls the focusable attribute of the SVG element which is defined by SVG Tiny 1.2 and only implemented in
Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge.If there is no
tabIndex prop is present (default behavior), it will set the focusable attribute to false. This is helpful
for preventing the decorative SVG from being announced by some specialized assistive technology browsing modes which can get delayed
while trying to parse the SVG markup.`js
// Example usage
import {PlusIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'
export default () => (
New Item
)
`$3
The
size prop takes small, medium, and large values that can be used to
render octicons at standard sizes:| Prop | Rendered Size |
| :-------------- | :------------------------------ |
|
size='small' | 16px height by computed width |
| size='medium' | 32px height by computed width |
| size='large' | 64px height by computed width |`js
// Example usage
import {LogoGithubIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'export default () => (
)
`$3
The
fill prop takes a string value that can be used to set the color of the icon.
By default, fill is set to currentColor.`js
// Example usage
import {LogoGithub} from '@primer/octicons-react'
export default () => (
