Iconographer

Static Icon Provider

npm version Build Status

About

Iconographer is a small, static icon provider utility that returns an icon file for a specific domain. It will always return an icon, using a default image if the domain is not matched. No requests are made while using the library, so it's fine to use offline and in secure scenarios.

Usage

Install the libary by running npm install @buttercup/iconographer.

You can fetch the absolute URL for an icon like so:

const { getIconFilename } = require("@buttercup/iconographer");

const filename = getIconFilename("amazon.com");

The returned file will always be a PNG. You can get greyscale icons by using the option: getIconFilename("amazon.com", { greyscale: true }).

Check out the API documentation for more information on the other available methods.

Web

Bundled is also a web version, which can be imported like so:

import { getIconFilename } from "@buttercup/iconographer/web/iconographer.js";

// ...

Development

You can build the full set of icons by running npm run build. This will delete all icon files and request them again, one by one. They're committed to the repository.

You can build only the missing icons by running npm run build:missing.

Make sure that when contributing, don't commit any updated icons. You're welcome to add to the list in prepare/domains.json but don't commit the built files.
