@odx/pictograms

A lightweight library for displaying pictograms as custom elements. This package provides flexible imports, allowing you to include only what you need to optimize your project.

Installation

Install using NPM:

npm i @odx/pictograms

Install using PNPM:

pnpm add @odx/pictograms

Usage

The library provides a custom custom element <odx-pictogram> to display pictograms. You can choose between different sets or import individual pictograms to reduce your bundle size.

We rely on the esm module behavior in order to keep a global state. If you load an asset from a CDN ensure that the same module of @odx/assets-utils is used throughout your application. One common technique is the usage of an import map (<script type="importmap">).

Import custom element:

import '@odx/pictograms';

Import specific pictogram sets

To optimize your bundle, you can import only the specific pictogram set you need:

// All pictogram sets
import '@odx/pictograms/all';

// Default pictograms (default set)
import '@odx/pictograms/symbols';

Import individual pictograms

To optimize your bundle, you can import only the specific pictograms you need:

import '@odx/pictograms/symbols/added-value';

Element API

Set the CSS font-size property on the element to define a custom size.

Properties

• name: string - Name in the format set::name

Deprecated

• set: string - Use name property with format set::name instead

Example Usage

HTML Example

<script type="module">
  import '@odx/pictograms';
