snowpack-svgr-plugin

this plugin will let you import SVG files and use them as a react component and transform them to browser as normal SVG

This plugin use svgr to transform/convert SVG Files into ready to use React components, then use @babel/preset-react to transform it to browser code

Installing

$ npm i -D snowpack-svgr-plugin

Getting start

Add the plugin to snowpack.config.js

  plugins: [
   ...
      'snowpack-svgr-plugin',
  ]

Supported files

We use an odd technique to prevent transforming all SVG files

only files that endsup with *.svgr.svg will be transformed

this was the quicker solution that come to my mind to overpass the lake of filtering option in the snowpack API

the reason of filtering is because this plugin will replace the targeted files with the generated code so you will not be able to use these JS files as normal SVG like inside HTML <img> tag or whatever,but with filtering you can control this habbet.

example

home.svg->not transformed

messages.svgr.svg->transformed

Using with ReactJS

Import your SVG files as you normally do

import mySvg from '../mySvg.svgr.svg';

then use it as a normal react component

 const App=() {
  return (
    <div className="app">
   <mySvg/>
      </div>)

Using with ReactTs

using TypeScript you just need to add the type definition to *.svgr.svg file add those Line to your d.ts file:

declare module '*.svgr.svg' {
  const ref: React.ForwardRefRenderFunction<
    SVGSVGElement,
    React.SVGAttributes<SVGSVGElement>
  >;
  export default ref;
}

now you will be able to import your svgr.svg files without type problems and use them the same as normal JS with some types spices.

What's next

hopfully its will be a better solution for filtering like to be able to include/exclude folders. Im not planing on investigate more in the Snowpack API But I will accept the Good Solutions and ideas via PR so if someone want to help or fork i will appreciate it.

  • Also if you have any problems or issues using this plugin please make sure to Create a Issue

Finally, Big thank to myself as this was a personal problem that i need to solve
