svg-maker

Did you use Sketch to generate SVGs? Cool! Want to use them as font icons in a React app? :(

This will help you get started. It reads a directory of SVGs and converts them to stateless React components. Attributes are converted to the supported SVG attributes or removed. Nodes that make React unhappy are removed.

Disclaimer: This is basically an experiment. If it is of any use, I will build on this and make it better. If you are not completely satisfied, please contact me for a full refund. Better yet, submit a PR.

install

npm i -g svg-maker

usage

1. cd into a directory of .svg files
2. run svg-maker
3. look for a directory named svg-components

example

(input) ./Article Section Incomplete.svg
