Setup ⛓️

Run the following command to add the module to your project:

npx nuxi module add icon

That's it, you can now use the `` in your components!

✨ If you are using VS Code, you can use the Iconify IntelliSense extension by @antfu

Usage 👌

Props:

• name (required): icon name or global component name
• size: icon size (default: 1em)
• mode: icon rendering mode (svg or css, default: css)

Attributes:

When using an icon from Iconify, an <span> or <svg> will be created based on the rendering mode, you can give all the attributes of the native element.

Iconify dataset

You can use any name from the https://icones.js.org collection:

It supports the i- prefix (for example, i-uil-github).

It's highly recommended to install the icon data locally with

npm i -D @iconify-json/collection-name

For example, to use the uil:github icon, install it's collection with @iconify-json/uil. This way the icons can be served locally or from your serverless functions, which is faster and more reliable on both SSR and client-side.

Vue component

When the name matches a global registered component, it will be rendered as that component (in this case mode will be ignored):

Note that MyComponent needs to be inside components/global/ folder (see example).

Custom Local Collections

You can use local SVG files to create a custom Iconify collection.

For example, place your icons' SVG files under a folder on your choice, for example ./assets/my-icons:

assets/my-icons
├── foo.svg
├── bar-outline.svg

In your nuxt.config.ts, add an item in icon.customCollections:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: [
    'nuxt-icon'
  ],
  icon: {
    customCollections: [
      {
        prefix: 'my-icon',
        dir: './assets/my-icons'
      },
    ],
  },
})

Then you can use the icons like this:

Configuration ⚙️

To update the default size (1em) of the ``, create an app.config.ts with the icon.size property.

Update the default class (.icon) of the `` with the icon.class property, for a headless Icon, set icon.class: ''`.

You can also define aliases to make swapping out icons easier by leveraging the icon.aliases property.

// app.config.ts
export default defineAppConfig({
  icon: {
    size: '24px', // default  size applied
    class: 'icon', // default  class applied
    mode: 'css', // default  mode applied
    aliases: {
      'nuxt': 'logos:nuxt-icon',
    }
  }
})

The icons will have the default size of 24px and the nuxt icon will be available:

By default, this module will create a server endpoint /api/_nuxt_icon/:collection to serve the icons from your local server bundle. When requesting an icon that does not exist in the local bundle, it will fallback to requesting the official Iconify API. You can disable the fallback by setting icon.fallbackToApi to false, or set up your own Iconify API and update icon.iconifyApiEndpoint to your own API endpoint.

Render Function

You can use the Icon component in a render function (useful if you create a functional component), for this you can import it from #components:

import { Icon } from '#components'

See an example of a `` component:

</svg><p></p>
