Scalar Icons

This package provide a set of icons for use Scalar applications based on Phosphor Icons. It uses a custom Vue implementation based on the @phosphor-icons/vue package which allows for tree shaking.

For a full list of available icons see Phosphor Icons. The icon will be available from this package as ScalarIcon<Icon Name in PascalCase>.

Installation

pnpm i @scalar/icons

Usage

<script setup lang="ts">
import { ScalarIconMagnifyingGlass } from '@scalar/icons'
</script>

<template>
  <!-- You can size and color the icons easily using Tailwind -->
  <ScalarIconMagnifyingGlass class="size-4 text-c-3" weight="bold" />
</template>

Differences from @phosphor-icons/vue

There are a few differences between this implementation and @phosphor-icons/vue to better it align with our Scalar stack.

• Size & Color Props: Rather than using props you can use Tailwind classes (e.g. size-<Number> or text-<color>) to adjust the size and color of the icons. By default the icons are sized to 1em (the size of the text around it) and set to the currentColor.
• Mirrored Prop: If you need to mirror an icon (e.g. for a RTL layout) you can use the -scale-x-100 Tailwind class.
• A11y Attributes: In order to make the icons accessible by default icons have the aria-hidden and role="presentation" attributes set. If you set the label prop then the aria-label will be set instead.

Development

To build the icons we use a icon generation script modified from the @phosphor-icons/vue assemble.ts script. The icon SVGs are pulled from @phosphor-icons/core and compiled into individual Vue components for tree shaking.

To generate the icons run:

pnpm generate:icons

This will also update / override the exports in the index file at src/index.ts. See also the development docs for @phosphor-icons/vue.
