I am using vaadin flow v21. I like to create a custom component which is using an own svg icon set. I tried to create the set based on the vaadin-icon but the svg definition will not be copied over into the shadow root.
I did the following
CustomIcon Component class which is derived from com.vaadin.flow.component.icon.IconJSModule which will contain the new icon set as a polymer template.Custom Component Class
@JsModule("./icons/custom-iconset-svg.js")
public class CustomIcon extends Icon {
public CustomIcon(String collection, String icon) {
super(collection,icon);
}
}
File "custom-iconset-svg.js"
import '@vaadin/vaadin-icon/vaadin-iconset.js';
import '@vaadin/vaadin-icon/vaadin-icon.js';
const $_documentContainer = document.createElement('template');
$_documentContainer.innerHTML = `<vaadin-iconset-svg name="custom" size="16">
<svg>
<defs>
<vaadin-iconset name="vaadin" size="16">
<svg><defs>
<g id="custom:abacus"><path d="..."></path></g>
</defs>
</svg>
</vaadin-iconset-svg>`;
document.head.appendChild($_documentContainer.content);
Usage of the new "CustomIcon" Class
Icon icon = new CustomIcon("custom","abacus")
add(icon);
This creates later on the following html elements
<head> section the custom set of icons <vaadin-iconset-svg name="custom" ... ><vaadin-icon icon="custom:abacus">The issue is that the <svg> section of the shadowroot for that new element is empty. So not sure what I missed here?
<vaadin-icon style="width: var(--lumo-icon-size-s); height: var(--lumo-icon-size-s); margin-right: var(--lumo-space-s);" icon="custom:abacus">
#shadow-root
<style>...</<style>
<svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet" viewBox="0 0 24 24">
<!---->
</svg>
</vaadin-icon>
Here's an example that works, tested in Vaadin 21.0.3
File frontend/icons/custom-iconset.js
import '@vaadin/vaadin-icon/vaadin-iconset.js';
import '@vaadin/vaadin-icon/vaadin-icon.js';
const $_documentContainer = document.createElement('template');
$_documentContainer.innerHTML = `<vaadin-iconset name="custom" size="24">
<svg><defs>
<g id="custom:sample1"><path d="M19 3H5C3.9 3 3 3.9 3 5V19C3 20.1 3.9 21 5 21H19C20.1 21 21 20.1 21 19V5C21 3.9 20.1 3 19 3ZM9 17H7V10H9V17ZM13 17H11V7H13V17ZM17 17H15V13H17V17Z"/></g>
<g id="custom:sample2"><path d="M7 17L8.4 15.6L5.8 13L16 13L16 11L5.8 11L8.4 8.4L7 7L2 12L7 17Z" /><path d="M19 19H11V21H19C20.1 21 21 20.1 21 19V5C21 3.9 20.1 3 19 3H11V5H19V19Z" /></g>
</defs></svg>
</vaadin-iconset>`;
document.head.appendChild($_documentContainer.content);
Convenience enum:
public enum CustomIcon implements IconFactory {
SAMPLE1, SAMPLE2;
@Override
public Icon create() {
return new Icon("custom", name().toLowerCase(Locale.ENGLISH));
}
}
Sample Usage:
@Route("")
@JsModule("icons/custom-iconset.js")
public class ShowIconsView extends Div {
public ShowIconsView() {
for (CustomIcon customIcon : CustomIcon.values()) {
add(customIcon.create());
}
}
}
You could probably add the @JsModule to a common parent layout. Full example on Github.
