vue-svg  

_Super simple svg loading module for Vue.js_

(actual npm package is vue-cli-plugin-svg)

Introduction

vue-svg allows you to import .svg files in multiple ways depending on the resource query you provide. Currently, this allows you to do the following:

- file.svg - normal import using file-loader
- file.svg?data - base64 data url import using url-loader
- file.svg?inline - inline import using vue-svg-loader
- file.svg?sprite - import using svg-sprite-loader (alpha implementation)

Installation

Using the new Vue CLI 3, it's as simple as navigating to your project and running:

``console
$ vue add svg
`

That's it! You're ready to go!

Configuration

You can provide options to all of the loaders used in using the vue.config.js pluginOptions field:

`javascript
// vue.config.js

module.exports = {
pluginOptions: {
svg: {
inline: {}, // Pass options to vue-svg-loader
data: {}, // Pass options to url-loader
sprite: {}, // Pass options to svg-sprite-loader
external: {} // Pass options to file-loader
}
}
};
`

You can provide as many options as you like, or nothing at all. You don't have to configure options, it will use some standard defaults.

You can also customise the resource queries for each type that doesn't get passed as a loader options (other than external, which doesn't use a resourceQuery):

`javascript
// vue.config.js

module.exports = {
pluginOptions: {
svg: {
// You can change this
inline: { resourceQuery: /inline/ }
}
}
};
`

$3

By default, file-loader will inherit the standard configuration from vue-cli so that behaves exactly the same.

vue-svg-loader by default will _not_ use svgo. This is because it can cause more problems than it solves generally, though this can be easily re-enabled. Check the vue-svg-loader` documentation for more info.

Contributing

As this loader attempts to abstract webpack configuration from the process and make it easier to use multiple svg loaders, any contributions that add more svg loader methods to the configuration will be accepted wholeheartedly!

Also I'll be actively maintaining this project so if you'd rather just make a request for a loader or a feature; I'd be happy to take a look and see what I can do myself :)
