create-react-icons
Advanced tools
Create react icons is a CLI for easily generating react icon components from a set of svg formatted icons. It was originally built to generate the feather icons found in Sancho-UI.
Install using yarn or npm
yarn global add create-react-icons
create-react-icons --source './icons/**.svg' --destination path/to/destination
It converts something like this:
<!--?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?-->
<svg viewBox="0 0 17 17" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" class="si-glyph si-glyph-baseball">
