✨ Features

• Run SVGO on current open SVG file, or within text selection, through the extension command SVGOCD: Optimize current SVG
• Looks for and reads svgo.config.{js, mjs, cjs} file in the workspace
• Configure SVGO plugins directly through the SVGOCDs plugin settings
• Reports file size change upon optimization

⚙️ Settings

Settings can either be configured from the extension settings or having a svgo.config.{js,cjs} file in the workspace directory. A svgo config file will override the extension settings. See the svgo npm package repository for more information about configuration.

⚠️ Note that since the extension runs as a CommonJS module in VS Code, only this format is supported by the plugin.

Config file

/** @type {import('svgo').Config} */
module.exports = {
  multipass:
  js2svg: {
    indent: 2,
    pretty: true,
  },
  plugins: [
    {
      name: 'sortAttrs',
      params: {
        xmlnsOrder: 'alphabetical',
      },
    },
  ],
};

Extension settings

Supports all default SVGO plugin settings through extension settings (svgocd.plugins.*). Boolean values to enable/disable or object values for plugin settings can be used. Full list of plugins from https://github.com/svg/svgo :
