GitHub - ComposeGears/Valkyrie: SVG/XML to Compose ImageVector: IntelliJ IDEA / Android Studio plugin + build-in previewer without compilation, CLI tool

Valkyrie — SVG/XML to Compose ImageVector converter

Motivation

On one of the projects, during the migration to Jetpack Compose, we needed to convert a large number of icons from XML ( Android drawable) and SVG (Figma design system) to ImageVector. The existing solutions didn't quite fit our needs due to their inconvenient workflow, numerous bugs, poor output code, and in some cases, even being paid (after 5 icons 😄).

Additionally, with the release of Compose 1.7.0, Google discontinued support for material icons.

Key features

Core functionality:

Support conversion from SVG and XML
Custom kotlinpoet generator with streamlined code formatting:
- code alignment and formatting
- remove redundant code by default (e.g. public keyword)
- remove unused imports (e.g. kotlin.* package)
- skip default ImageVector parameters
- support generation as backing property or lazy property
- optional trailing comma and explicit mode
- customize code indent
Ability to create your unique project icon pack (+nested packs if necessary)
High performance (6k icons processing ~5sec)

Currently supported:

IntelliJ IDEA / Android Studio plugin
CLI tool
Gradle plugin and Web app (🚧 coming soon 🚧)

IDEA Plugin

Plugin features

Two conversion modes: Simple and IconPack
Support for Drag&Drop files/directories and pasting content from clipboard
Easy option to add more icons into existing project icon pack
Export generated ImageVector to clipboard or file (depends on the mode)
Fully customizable setting for generated icons
Build-in ImageVector previewer for any icons without compilation ✨
The plugin is completely built using Compose Multiplatform and Tiamat navigation library

More exclusive features under development, stay tuned 🌚

Simple mode

Note

One-click solution to convert SVG/XML to ImageVector (requires only specifying the package).

Available quick actions:

Rename icon
Preview current ImageVector
Copy generated ImageVector to clipboard

Demo:

simple_mode_demo.mp4

IconPack mode

New icon pack

Note

Facilitates creating an organized icon pack with extension properties for your pack object, previewing the list of icons, and batch exporting them to your specified directory.

Demo:

iconpack_mode_new_demo.mp4

Existing icon pack

Note

Instead of importing icon pack settings, the plugin provides a direct way to import an already created icon pack from a Kotlin file.

Important

Editing features are limited for now; you can only load an existing pack and add more nested packs.

Demo:

iconpack_mode_existing_demo.mp4

ImageVector Previewer

We personally find it very useful to have a previewer for ImageVector (such we have for SVG or XML). Previewer available for any ImageVector formats (backing or lazy property, legacy google material icons) without compose @Preview annotation and project compilation.

Previewer actions:

Change icon background (pixel grid, white, black)
Zoom in, zoom out icon without loosing quality
Draw as actual size
Fit icon to window

Demo:

imagevector_previewer.mp4

Requirements

IntelliJ IDEA 2024.1 and later
Android Studio Koala and later

Important

K2 mode is available starting from IntelliJ IDEA

2024.2.1 (more details)

Installation

Find plugin inside IDE:

Settings > Plugins > Marketplace > Search for "Valkyrie" > Install Plugin
Manually: Download the latest release or build your self and install it manually using Settings -> Plugins -> ⚙️ -> Install plugin from disk...

Build plugin

Precondition: IntelliJ IDEA with installed Plugin DevKit

Run ./gradlew buildPlugin to build plugin locally. Artifact will be available in idea-plugin/build/distributions/ folder

or run plugin in IDE using: ./gradlew runIde

CLI tool

CLI tools can be easily integrated into scripts and automated workflows, allowing you to convert icons from specific source with predefined settings.

Install CLI

via brew

  brew install ComposeGears/repo/valkyrie

manually via binary release

Download latest CLI tool from releases.

Unzip the downloaded archive and run the CLI tool from bin folder in the terminal

  ./valkyrie

You should see this message

automatically using bash script

A simple example of how to get the latest version of the CLI tool. It can be executed on CI/CD with predefined parameters.

#!/bin/bash

TARGET_DIR="valkyrie-cli"
ASSET_NAME="tmp.zip"

LATEST_CLI_RELEASE_URL=$(curl --silent "https://api.github.com/repos/ComposeGears/Valkyrie/releases/latest" \
  | jq -r '.assets[] | select(.name | startswith("valkyrie-cli")) | .browser_download_url')

curl -L -o "$ASSET_NAME" "$LATEST_CLI_RELEASE_URL"
mkdir -p "$TARGET_DIR"
unzip -o "$ASSET_NAME" -d "$TARGET_DIR"

rm "$ASSET_NAME"

cd "$TARGET_DIR/bin" || exit
./valkyrie svgxml2imagevector -h

Available commands

`iconpack` command

A part of the CLI tool that allows you to create an icon pack with nested packs.

Usage:

  ./valkyrie iconpack [<options>]

Demo:

cli_iconpack.mp4

`svgxml2imagevector` command

A part of the CLI tool that allows you to convert SVG/XML files to ImageVector.

Usage:

  ./valkyrie svgxml2imagevector [<options>]

Demo:

cli_svgxml2imagevector.mp4

Build CLI

Run ./gradlew buildCLI to build minified version of CLI tool. Artifact will be available in cli/build/distributions/valkyrie-cli-0.11.0-SNAPSHOT.zip.
