Python Wrapper for the simpleicons (https://simpleicons.org) library

Project description

simplepycons

Python wrappers for simple-icons inspired by the wonderful work of sachinraja.

As latter project seems to be no longer maintained, this project starts as being compatible to simple-icons 13.x

Usage

The simplepycons namespace contains the following types:

  • Icon: The basic icon class, from which all Icons are inherited. It is abstract and hence cannot be inherited.
  • all_icons: A collection of all icons found.
  • IconFactory: A simple wrapper providing a callable interface and a prototype.

as well as a class for each icon provided.

So, you can run:

from simplepycons import all_icons, PythonIcon

icon1 = PythonIcon()
icon2 = all_icons.get_python_icon()

Both calls should provide a new icon instance of the python icon.

For all simple-icons, a get icon method is provided using the name of the icon.

An instance of Icon offers the following properties:

  • name (str): The name of the icon, i.e. the name of the simple-icon id.
  • original_file_name (str): The name of the file it was created from.
  • title (str): The name of the brand
  • primary_color (str): The primary color of the brand.
  • raw_svg (str): The RAW SVG graphics as string.
  • guidelines_url (str | None): The url to the usage guidelines (optional).
  • license (tuple[str | None, str | None]): The license as a tuple. The first element is the SPDX identifier, the second element is the URL to the license document (optional).
  • source (str): The source URL of the icon.
  • aliases (Iterable[str]): A list of aliases used as alternative titles

An instance of Icon offers the following methods:

  • svg_tree() (xml.ElementTree.Element): The SVG as XML Element
  • customize_svg(**svg_attr: str) (xml.ElementTree.Element): The SVG with custom attributes on the root node.
  • customize_svg_as_bytes(**svg_attr: str) (bytes): The SVG with custom attributes on the root node, converted to a bytes object.
  • customize_svg_as_str(**svg_attr: str) (str): The SVG with custom attributes on the root node, converted to string.
  • customize_svg_as_data_url_(**svg_attr: str) (str): The SVG with custom attributes on the root node, converted to a base64 encoded data url.

The svg_attr keyword arguments can be used to add any arbitrary svg attribute to the SVG root node. If fill is not used, the primary_color is used.
