# SVGO [![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/svgo)](https://npmjs.org/package/svgo) [![chat](https://img.shields.io/discord/815166721315831868)](https://discord.gg/z8jX8NYxrE) [![docs](https://img.shields.io/badge/docs-svgo.dev-blue)](https://svgo.dev/) SVGO, short for **SVG O**ptimizer, is a Node.js library and command-line application for optimizing SVG files. ## Why? SVG files, especially those exported from vector editors, usually contain a lot of redundant information. This includes editor metadata, comments, hidden elements, default or suboptimal values, and other stuff that can be safely removed or converted without impacting rendering. ## Installation You can install SVGO globally through npm, yarn, or pnpm. Alternatively, drop the global flag (`global`/`-g`) to use it in your Node.js project. ```sh # npm npm install -g svgo # yarn yarn global add svgo # pnpm pnpm add -g svgo ``` ## Command-line usage Process single files: ```sh svgo one.svg two.svg -o one.min.svg two.min.svg ``` Process a directory of files recursively with `-f`/`--folder`: ```sh svgo -f path/to/directory_with_svgs -o path/to/output_directory ``` Help for advanced usage: ```sh svgo --help ``` ## Configuration SVGO has a plugin architecture. You can read more about all plugins in [Plugins | SVGO Documentation](https://svgo.dev/docs/plugins/), and the default plugins in [Preset Default | SVGO Documentation](https://svgo.dev/docs/preset-default/). SVGO reads the configuration from `svgo.config.js` or the `--config path/to/config.js` command-line option. Some other parameters can be configured though command-line options too. **`svgo.config.js`** ```js module.exports = { multipass: false, // boolean datauri: 'base64', // 'base64'|'enc'|'unenc' js2svg: { indent: 4, // number pretty: false, // boolean }, plugins: [ 'preset-default', // built-in plugins enabled by default 'prefixIds', // enable built-in plugins by name // enable built-in plugins with an object to configure plugins { name: 'prefixIds', params: { prefix: 'uwu', }, }, ], }; ``` ### Default preset Instead of configuring SVGO from scratch, you can tweak the default preset to suit your needs by configuring or disabling the respective plugin. **`svgo.config.js`** ```js module.exports = { plugins: [ { name: 'preset-default', params: { overrides: { // disable a default plugin removeViewBox: false, // customize the params of a default plugin inlineStyles: { onlyMatchedOnce: false, }, }, }, }, ], }; ``` You can find a list of the default plugins in the order they run in [Preset Default | SVGO Documentation](https://svgo.dev/docs/preset-default/#plugins-list). ### Custom plugins You can also specify custom plugins: **`svgo.config.js`** ```js const importedPlugin = require('./imported-plugin'); module.exports = { plugins: [ // plugin imported from another JavaScript file importedPlugin, // plugin defined inline { name: 'customPlugin', params: { paramName: 'paramValue', }, fn: (ast, params, info) => {}, }, ], }; ``` ## API usage SVGO provides a few low level utilities. ### optimize The core of SVGO is `optimize` function. ```js const { optimize } = require('svgo'); const result = optimize(svgString, { path: 'path-to.svg', // recommended multipass: true, // all other config fields are available here }); const optimizedSvgString = result.data; ``` ### loadConfig If you write a tool on top of SVGO you may want to resolve the `svgo.config.js` file. ```js const { loadConfig } = require('svgo'); const config = await loadConfig(); ``` You can also specify a path and customize the current working directory. ```js const config = await loadConfig(configFile, cwd); ``` ## Other ways to use SVGO | Method | Reference | | ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Web app | [SVGOMG](https://jakearchibald.github.io/svgomg/) | | Grunt task | [grunt-svgmin](https://github.com/sindresorhus/grunt-svgmin) | | Gulp task | [gulp-svgmin](https://github.com/ben-eb/gulp-svgmin) | | Webpack loader | [image-minimizer-webpack-plugin](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/image-minimizer-webpack-plugin/#optimize-with-svgo) | | PostCSS plugin | [postcss-svgo](https://github.com/cssnano/cssnano/tree/master/packages/postcss-svgo) | | Inkscape plugin | [inkscape-svgo](https://github.com/konsumer/inkscape-svgo) | | Sketch plugin | [svgo-compressor](https://github.com/BohemianCoding/svgo-compressor) | | Rollup plugin | [rollup-plugin-svgo](https://github.com/porsager/rollup-plugin-svgo) | | Visual Studio Code plugin | [vscode-svgo](https://github.com/1000ch/vscode-svgo) | | Atom plugin | [atom-svgo](https://github.com/1000ch/atom-svgo) | | Sublime plugin | [Sublime-svgo](https://github.com/1000ch/Sublime-svgo) | | Figma plugin | [Advanced SVG Export](https://www.figma.com/c/plugin/782713260363070260/Advanced-SVG-Export) | | Linux app | [Oh My SVG](https://github.com/sonnyp/OhMySVG) | | Browser extension | [SVG Gobbler](https://github.com/rossmoody/svg-gobbler) | | API | [Vector Express](https://github.com/smidyo/vectorexpress-api#convertor-svgo) | ## Donors | [
