cordova-icon-sharp v0.9.2
cordova-icon-sharp
Automatic icon resizing for Cordova. Create an icon in the root folder of your Cordova project and use cordova-icon-sharp to automatically resize and copy it for all the platforms your project supports (currenty works with iOS, Android, Windows 10 and OSX).
This is a fork of cordova-icon that uses sharp instead of ImageMagick.
Installation
$ sudo npm install cordova-icon-sharp -g
Requirements
- At least one platform was added to your project (cordova platforms docs)
- Cordova's config.xml file must exist in the root folder (cordova config.xml docs)
Usage
Create an icon.png
file in the root folder of your cordova project.
You can provide a platform-specific icon by naming it icon-[platform].png
(e.g icon-android.png
, icon-ios.png
).
Then run:
$ cordova-icon-sharp
You also can specify manually a location for your config.xml
or icon.png
:
$ cordova-icon-sharp --config=config.xml --icon=icon.png
If you run a old version of Cordova for iOS / Mac and you need your files in /Resources/icons/
, use this option:
$ cordova-icon-sharp --xcode-old
For good results, your file should be:
- square
- for Android and iOS, at least 192*192px (512*512px recommended to be future-proof)
- for Windows, at least 1240*1240px
Notes:
- Your
config.ml
file will not be updated by the tool (because images are automatically created in the good folders) - Therefore, in your
config.xml
, be sure to remove all lines looking like<splash src="res/screen/android/splash-land-mdpi.png" density="land-mdpi"/>
Creating a cordova-cli hook
Since the execution of cordova-icon-sharp is pretty fast, you can add it as a cordova-cli hook to execute before every build. To create a new hook, go to your cordova project and run:
$ mkdir hooks/after_prepare
$ vi hooks/after_prepare/cordova-icon-sharp.sh
Paste the following into the hook script:
#!/bin/bash
cordova-icon-sharp
Then give the script +x permission:
$ chmod +x hooks/after_prepare/cordova-icon-sharp.sh
That's it. Now every time you cordova build
, the icons will be auto generated.
