createIconComponent

Usage (Registering custom icon sets)

This package exposes a method used to generate a custom version of the Icon component with any specified set of icons.

// Import the createIconComponent method from the Icon package
import { createGlyphComponent, createIconComponent } from '@leafygreen-ui/icon';

// Create your 'glyphs' object. For each key / value pair, the key will be the name of the icon,
// and the value can be any valid React component.
const myGlyphs = {
  MyCustomGlyph: createGlyphComponent('MyCustomGlyph', props => (
    <svg {...props} />
  )),
};

// The createIconComponent function returns your custom Icon component.
const MyIconComponent = createIconComponent(myGlyphs);

// Your icon is now ready to use!
const SomeComponent = () => (
  <div>
    <MyIconComponent glyph="MyCustomGlyph" />
  </div>
);

We also export the default icon set for you! If you want to include our glyphs with your custom glyphs, you can do something like this:

import { createGlyphComponent, createIconComponent } from '@leafygreen-ui/icon';

const myGlyphs = {
  ...glyphs,
  MyCustomGlyph: createGlyphComponent('MyCustomGlyph', props => (
    <svg {...props} />
  )),
};

const MyIconComponent = createIconComponent(myGlyphs);

Note: Glyph has a static property, isGlyph, that enables checking whether or not a component is a LeafyGreen glyph.

Returns

A custom Icon component, that includes any custom glyphs

Properties

createGlyphComponent

Ensures a custom glyph accepts the same props and treat them the same as a built-in Leafygreen icon. To ensure a custom glyph behaves similarly to built-in icons, be sure to:

• Spread props onto the svg element
• Ensure all fills in the svg are set to currentColor
• Strokes are converted to outlines (this should be done in Figma)

Usage

import { createGlyphComponent, Size } from '@leafygreen-ui/icon';

const MyIconGlyph = createGlyphComponent('myIconName', props => (
  <svg {...props} />
));

return <MyIconGlyph size={Size.Large} role="presentation" />;

Returns

A LGGlyph.Component

Reference

Creating a new icon component

(For DS engineers)

• After uploading a new SVG file to src/glyphs, replace all fill property values for strokes with #000.
• Update src/glyphs/index.ts to import/export the SVG file.
• Build the package with yarn build:packages icon to create the component in src/generated.
• Update README
