grunt-convert-svg-to-png v1.1.0

grunt-convert-svg-to-png

Generate PNG from SVG using svg-to-png

Getting Started

If you haven't used grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a gruntfile as well as install and use grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, install this plugin with this command:

npm install --save-dev grunt-convert-svg-to-png

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-convert-svg-to-png');

Tip: the load-grunt-tasks module makes it easier to load multiple grunt tasks.

Motivation

We found that Grunticon provided the best way to convert a lot of SVGs to PNGs quickly, but we wanted to do this without all the extra cruft around grunticon. At the time of writing, none of the other grunt plugins offered the scaling capability svg2png was the closest and this plugin is modelled off that and the grunticon-lib Bear in mind this is just a grunt wrapper on top of svg-to-png. Can be combined with svgmin to reduce size of output svg files.

Documentation

See the Gruntfile in this repo for a full example.
