### SVG icons

We introduced SVG icons in `1.2.0` version replacing font icons which brings benefits below:

- Complete offline usage of icon, no dependency of CDN font icon file and no more empty square during downloading than no need to deploy icon font files locally either.
- Much more display accuracy in lower-level screens.
- Support multiple colors for icon.
- No need to change built-in icons with overriding styles by providing more props in component.

More discussion of SVG icon reference to [#10353](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/10353).

> ⚠️ About the extra bundle size brought by all SVG icons we imported in 1.2.0, we will provide new API to allow developers importing icons as your need, you can trace [#12011](https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/12011) for further progress.

The properties `theme`, `component` and `twoToneColor` are added in `1.2.0`. The best practice is to pass the property `theme` to every `<Icon />` components.

```html
<a-icon type="star" theme="filled" />
```

All the icons will render to `<svg>`. You can still set `style` and `class` for size and color of icons.

```html
<a-icon type="message" :style="{ fontSize: '16px', color: '#08c' }" />
```

### Set TwoTone Color

When using the two-tone icons, you can use the static methods `Icon.getTwoToneColor()` and `Icon.setTwoToneColor(colorString)` to spicify the primary color.

```jsx
import { Icon } from 'ant-design-vue'

Icon.setTwoToneColor('#eb2f96');
Icon.getTwoToneColor(); // #eb2f96
```

### Custom Font Icon

We added a `createFromIconfontCN` function to help developer using their own icons deployed at [iconfont.cn](http://iconfont.cn/) in a convenient way.

> This method is specified for [iconfont.cn](http://iconfont.cn/).

```js
const MyIcon = Icon.createFromIconfontCN({
  scriptUrl: '//at.alicdn.com/t/font_8d5l8fzk5b87iudi.js', // generated by iconfont.cn
});

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  template: '<my-icon type="icon-example" />',
  components: {
    'my-icon': MyIcon,
  }
})
```

It create a component that uses SVG sprites in essence.

The following options are available:

| Property | Description | Type | Default |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| scriptUrl | The URL generated by [iconfont.cn](http://iconfont.cn/) project. | string | - |
| extraCommonProps | Define extra properties to the component | `{ class, attrs, props, on, style }` | {} |

The property `scriptUrl` should be set to import the SVG sprite symbols.

See [iconfont.cn documents](http://iconfont.cn/help/detail?spm=a313x.7781069.1998910419.15&helptype=code) to learn about how to generate `scriptUrl`.

### Custom SVG Icon

You can import SVG icon as an vue component by using `vue cli 3` and [`vue-svg-loader`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/vue-svg-loader). `vue-svg-loader`'s `options` [reference](https://github.com/visualfanatic/vue-svg-loader).

```js
// vue.config.js
module.exports = {
  chainWebpack: (config) => {
    const svgRule = config.module.rule('svg');

    svgRule.uses.clear();

    svgRule
      .use('vue-svg-loader')
      .loader('vue-svg-loader');
  },
};
```

```jsx
import { Icon } from 'antd';
import MessageSvg from 'path/to/message.svg'; // path to your '*.svg' file.

new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  template: '<a-icon :component="MessageSvg" />',
  components: {
    'my-icon': MyIcon,
  }
})
```

The following properties are available for the component:

| Property | Description | Type | Default |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| width | The width of the `svg` element | string \| number | '1em' |
| height | The height of the `svg` element | string \| number | '1em' |
| fill | Define the color used to paint the `svg` element | string | 'currentColor' |
| class | The computed class name of the `svg` element | string | - |
| style | The computed style of the `svg` element | CSSProperties | - |
