⚙️ TypeScript Configuration

Svelicon automatically validates your tsconfig.json and suggests the optimal configuration:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "paths": {
      "$icons": ["src/icons"],
      "$icons/*": ["src/icons/*"]
    }
  }
}

This enables clean imports:

import HomeIcon from '$icons/MdiHome.svelte';

Component Props 🎛️

All generated components accept these props:

interface IconProps {
  size?: number;      // Icon size in em units
  class?: string;     // Add custom CSS classes to the SVG element
}

Examples 📝

🎯 With Path Mapping (Recommended)

<script>
  import HomeIcon from '$icons/MdiHome.svelte';
  import StarIcon from '$icons/LucideStar.svelte';
</script>

<HomeIcon size={1.2} />
<StarIcon class="text-yellow-500" />

TypeScript Usage

<script lang="ts">
  import HomeIcon, { type MdiHomeProps } from '$icons/MdiHome.svelte';
  
  let iconProps: MdiHomeProps = {
    size: 1.2,
    class: 'my-custom-icon'
  };
</script>

<HomeIcon {...iconProps} />

Without Path Mapping

<script>
  import HomeIcon from './icons/MdiHome.svelte';
</script>

<HomeIcon size={1.2} />

Component Output Structure

Generated components include:

<script lang="ts" module>
  export interface MdiHomeProps {
    size?: number;
    class?: string;
  }
</script>

<script lang="ts">
  const { size = 0.7, class: className = '' }: MdiHomeProps = $props();
</script>

<svg
   xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
   width="{size}em"
   height="{size}em"
   viewBox="0 0 24 24"
   class="{className}">
  <!-- optimized SVG path data -->
</svg>
