nuxt-svg v0.1.6

nuxt-svg

Super simple svg loading module for Nuxt.js

Introduction

nuxt-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

Installation

npm install nuxt-svg

// nuxt.config.js
export default {
  modules: ["nuxt-svg"]
};

And that's it! You don't have to install anything else, you're ready to go.

Usage

The usage examples are documented as:

<!-- Nuxt.js code -->

<!-- Outputted html -->

Standard external import

Import normally as an external resource using file-loader

<template>
  <img src="~assets/nuxt.svg" />
</template>

<img src="/_nuxt/9405b9978eb50f73b53ac1326b93f211.svg" />

Inline base64 url

Inline as a URL (no external requests) using url-loader

<template>
  <img src="~assets/nuxt.svg?data" />
</template>

<img src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,P...2h913j1g18h98hr" />

Inline svg element

Inline as an actual svg element using vue-svg-loader

<template>
  <NuxtLogo />
</template>

<script>
  import NuxtLogo from "~/assets/nuxt.svg?inline";

  export default {
    components: {
      NuxtLogo
    }
  };
</script>

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path></path></svg>

Caveats

In order for this module to work correctly, the default .svg Nuxt.js webpack rule gets replaced with this handler.

The only difference between this and the handler is that there is no limit for when file-loader replaces url-loader.

So when using the ?data query, it will always use url-loader regardless of file size, and when not using either resource query, it will always use file-loader).

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 :)
