list()

This function is part of IconSet class in Iconify Tools.

Function list() lists all icons in an icon set.

Usage

The function has the following parameter:

  • type, string[]. Optional. Icon types to list, default is ['icon', 'variation'].

Function returns an array of icon names string[].

Icon types

There are 3 types of icon items in IconSet: "icon", "variation", "alias".

"icon" represents a full unique icon.

"variation" represents variation of another icon. It has the following properties:

  • parent, string. Name of parent icon.

and at least one of the transformations:

  • rotate rotation by 90, 180 or 270 degrees.
  • hFlip horizontal flip.
  • vFlip vertical flip.

Variations make it easy to create clones of icons, such as arrow-left after creating arrow-right.

"alias" is an alternative name for icon. It has the following property:

  • parent, string. Name of parent icon.

Aliases can be created to have different name for icon. If you have renamed some icon, alias can be used to allow users to use old name.

Example

example.ts
tsimport { IconSet, cleanupSVG, parseColors, isEmptyColor } from '@iconify/tools';

const iconSet = new IconSet({
   prefix: 'codicon',
   icons: {
       'add': {
           body: '<g fill="currentColor"><path d="M14 7v1H8v6H7V8H1V7h6V1h1v6h6z"/></g>',
       },
       'debug-pause': {
           body: '<g fill="currentColor"><path d="M4.5 3H6v10H4.5V3zm7 0v10H10V3h1.5z"/></g>',
           hidden: true,
       },
       'triangle-left': {
           body: '<g fill="currentColor"><path d="M10.44 2l.56.413v11.194l-.54.393L5 8.373v-.827L10.44 2z"/></g>',
       },
   },
   aliases: {
       'plus': {
           parent: 'add',
       },
       'triangle-right': {
           parent: 'triangle-left',
           hFlip: true,
       },
   },
});

// List icons and variations
// [ 'add', 'debug-pause', 'triangle-left', 'triangle-right' ]
console.log(iconSet.list());

// List everything
// [ 'add', 'debug-pause', 'triangle-left', 'plus', 'triangle-right' ]
console.log(iconSet.list(['icon', 'variation', 'alias']));

// Icons only
// [ 'add', 'debug-pause', 'triangle-left' ]
console.log(iconSet.list(['icon']));

// Function can also be used to parse all icons in icon set,  though `forEach()` is a better choice for this code
const icons = iconSet.list();
for (let i = 0; i < icons.length; i++) {
   const name = icons[i];
   const svg = iconSet.toSVG(name);
   if (svg) {
       // Clean up icon
       try {
           cleanupSVG(svg);
       } catch (err) {
           // Something went wrong: remove icon
           iconSet.remove(name);
           continue;
       }

       // Change colors to red
       parseColors(svg, {
           defaultColor: 'red',
           callback: (attr, colorStr, color) => {
               return !color || isEmptyColor(color) ? colorStr : 'red';
           },
       });

       // Update code
       iconSet.fromSVG(name, svg);
   }
}

// Export updated icon set
console.log(iconSet.export());
Result of export():
