},
{
src: path.resolve('src/assets/large-icon.png'),

`API
$3
options
Type:
objectYou can follow the Web App Manifest specification.
The difference here is that, when defining icons, you can specify one icon with multiple sizes, using an array of integers, just as the example above.
You can also change the output's filename with the
filename property.Presets of
options:`javascript
{
filename: "manifest.json",
name: "App",
orientation: "portrait",
display: "standalone",
start_url: ".",
crossorigin: null,
inject: true,
fingerprints: true,
ios: false,
publicPath: null,
includeDirectory: true
}
`By default, HTML injection and fingerprint generation are on.
With
inject: false and fingerprints: false, respectively, you can turn them off.If
inject: true and 'theme-color' property is not defined, it wil try to use theme_color as default. Otherwise, no theme-color meta tag will be injected.With
includeDirectory: true, we will use filename's directory to export the manifest file.With
orientation: 'omit', the orientation key will be omitted from the generated manifest file.When
inject: true and ios: true, specific Apple meta tags will be injected to the HTML code when possible, as requested at issue #13. You can see Apple's Configuring Web Application for more information. Instead of using a boolean value, you can also use an object to specify certain link or meta tag, for instance:`javascript
...
ios: {
'apple-mobile-web-app-title': 'AppTitle',
'apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style': 'black'
}
`If
publicPath option is not given, this plugin fallbacks to Webpack's public path definition.When defining an icon object, you can also specify its output directory using a property called
destination. Using ios: true in an icon object makes it eligible to the apple-touch-icon meta tag injection. Using ios: 'startup' in an icon object makes it eligible to the apple-touch-startup-image meta tag injection.`javascript
...
icons: [
{
src: path.resolve('src/assets/icons/ios-icon.png'),
sizes: [120, 152, 167, 180, 1024],
destination: path.join('icons', 'ios'),
ios: true
},
{
src: path.resolve('src/assets/icons/ios-icon.png'),
size: 1024,
destination: path.join('icons', 'ios'),
ios: 'startup'
},
{
src: path.resolve('src/assets/icons/android-icon.png'),
sizes: [36, 48, 72, 96, 144, 192, 512],
destination: path.join('icons', 'android')
}
]
}
`If you specify a valid
crossorigin property it will be added to the ` in the HTML document.
