NPM version Build status Dependency Status devDependency Status Coverage Status Code Climate

'rect', 'line', 'circle', 'ellipsis', 'polyline' and 'polygon' shapes will be converted to pathes. Multiple pathes will be merged.

Transform attributes support is currenly experimental, report issues if any.

You can test this library with the frontend generator.

You may want to convert fonts to icons, if so use svgfont2svgicons.

## Usage NodeJS module:

var svgicons2svgfont = require('svgicons2svgfont')
  , fs = require('fs');
  , fontStream = svgicons2svgfont([
    'icons/directory/icon1.svg',
    'icons/directory/icon2.svg'
  ], options);

// Saving in a file
fontStream.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('font/destination/file.svg'))
  .on('finish',function() {
    console.log('Font written !')
  });

CLI (install the module globally):

svgicons2svgfont icons/directory font/destination/file.svg

API

svgicons2svgfont(options)

Creates a monospace font of the width of the largest input icon.

options.centerHorizontally

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Calculate the bounds of a glyph and center it horizontally.

Warning: The bounds calculation is currently a naive implementation that may not work for some icons. We need to create a svg-pathdata-draw module on top of svg-pathdata to get the real bounds of the icon. It's in on the bottom of my to do, but feel free to work on it. Discuss it in the related issue.

options.normalize

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Normalize icons by scaling them to the height of the highest icon.

options.fontHeight

options.descent

Type: Number Default value: 0

The font descent. It is usefull to fix the font baseline yourself.

Warning: The descent is a positive value!

The ascent formula is: ascent = fontHeight - descent.

options.log
