SVG Sprites
An SVG sprite is used for icons, this is generated by the svg-sprite node module. This means icons can be easily pre-loaded when the navigator is collapsed.
Using the icons
After compilation, a _iconsprite.scss
file is created. This should be included in the main scss.
To include an icon as background image in an element, extend the icon and the dimensions
.bn-icon-close {
@extend .svg-images--bn-icon--close;
@extend .svg-images--bn-icon--close-dims;
}
Adding or removing icons
If you need to add or remove an icon, then add or remove it from the ./images/bn-icon/
directory and re-compile.
Only SVG is supported, and it is recommended to compress the SVG first using a tool such as svgo or svgomg first.
Compiling the icon sprite
This can be done by running npm run build:svg
from the root of the module.
All icons in the ./images/bn-icon/
directory are compiled into a single SVG and output to ./css/svg/
.
The ./scss/_iconsprite.scss
file is generated with the correct background positions based on the size of each icon.
