grunt-svg-sprites

Takes SVGs and creates a scalable SVG sprite with PNG fallback

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

1npm install grunt-svg-sprites --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

1grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-svg-sprites');

The "svg_sprites" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named svg_sprites to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig(). The below example reads all SVGs from the src directory and will create the files dest/preview-svg-sprite.html, dest/css/sprites.css, dest/sprites/png-sprite.png and dest/sprites/svg-sprite.svg

1grunt.initConfig({
2  svg_sprites: {
3    options: {
4      // Task-specific options go here.
5    },
6    your_target: {
7      src: 'src/*.svg',
8      dest: 'dest'
9    },
10  },
11});

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
