I needed individual Glyphicons in vector format for an upcoming
presentation, so I built a little toolchain with Python, PhantomJS and Make to
extract individual icons from the glyphicons.svg file you get when you buy
the ‘PRO’ package.
You need Python, Cairo, PhantomJS and Make installed on your system. I ran this on a Mac; your mileage may vary on other operating systems.
Install the necessary Python dependencies:
npm install
pip install -r requirements.txt
This will install lxml, cssselect, cairosvg. On my computer (running OS X Mountain Lion).
You then need to take the glyphicons.svg file from
glyphicons_pro/glyphicons/svg (which you can download when you buy it) and
move/copy it into this directory. It will only be read, not written, so you can
even symlink it.
The next step is to simply run make; this will leave individual SVGs in the
extracted/ directory (because individual SVGs have been extracted from the
large SVG file) and individual PDFs in the rendered/ directory (because those
PDFs were rendered from the extracted SVGs). Enjoy, and pull requests/bug
reports are welcome!
