## SVGO [](https://npmjs.org/package/svgo) [](https://discord.gg/z8jX8NYxrE)
**SVG O**ptimizer is a Node.js-based tool for optimizing SVG vector graphics files.
## Why?
SVG files, especially those exported from various editors, usually contain a lot of redundant and useless information. This can include editor metadata, comments, hidden elements, default or non-optimal values and other stuff that can be safely removed or converted without affecting the SVG rendering result.
## Installation
```shnpm -g install svgo```
or
```shyarn global add svgo```
## CLI usage
```shsvgo one.svg two.svg -o one.min.svg two.min.svg```
Or use the `--folder`/`-f` flag to optimize a whole folder of SVG icons
```shsvgo -f ./path/to/folder/with/svg/files -o ./path/to/folder/with/svg/output```
See help for advanced usage
```shsvgo --help```
## Configuration
Some options can be configured with CLI though it may be easier to have the configuration in a separate file.SVGO automatically loads configuration from `svgo.config.js` or module specified with `--config` flag.
```jsmodule.exports = { multipass: true, // boolean. false by default datauri: 'enc', // 'base64', 'enc' or 'unenc'. 'base64' by default js2svg: { indent: 2, // string with spaces or number of spaces. 4 by default pretty: true, // boolean, false by default },};```
SVGO has a plugin-based architecture, so almost every optimization is a separate plugin.There is a set of [built-in plugins](#built-in-plugins). See how to configure them:
```jsmodule.exports = { plugins: [ // enable a built-in plugin by name 'prefixIds',
// or by expanded version { name: 'prefixIds', },
// some plugins allow/require to pass options { name: 'prefixIds', params: { prefix: 'my-prefix', }, }, ],};```
The default preset of plugins is fully overridden if the `plugins` field is specified.Use `preset-default` plugin to customize plugins options.
```jsmodule.exports = { plugins: [ { name: 'preset-default', params: { overrides: { // customize options for plugins included in preset inlineStyles: { onlyMatchedOnce: false, },
// or disable plugins removeDoctype: false, }, }, },
// enable builtin plugin not included in default preset 'prefixIds',
// enable and configure builtin plugin not included in preset { name: 'sortAttrs', params: { xmlnsOrder: 'alphabetical', }, }, ],};```
Default preset includes the following list of plugins:
- removeDoctype- removeXMLProcInst- removeComments- removeMetadata- removeEditorsNSData- cleanupAttrs- mergeStyles- inlineStyles- minifyStyles- cleanupIDs- removeUselessDefs- cleanupNumericValues- convertColors- removeUnknownsAndDefaults- removeNonInheritableGroupAttrs- removeUselessStrokeAndFill- removeViewBox- cleanupEnableBackground- removeHiddenElems- removeEmptyText- convertShapeToPath- convertEllipseToCircle- moveElemsAttrsToGroup- moveGroupAttrsToElems- collapseGroups- convertPathData- convertTransform- removeEmptyAttrs- removeEmptyContainers- mergePaths- removeUnusedNS- sortDefsChildren- removeTitle- removeDesc
It's also possible to specify a custom plugin:
```jsconst anotherCustomPlugin = require('./another-custom-plugin.js');module.exports = { plugins: [ { name: 'customPluginName', type: 'perItem', // 'perItem', 'perItemReverse' or 'full' params: { optionName: 'optionValue', }, fn: (ast, params, info) => {}, }, anotherCustomPlugin, ],};```
## API usage
SVGO provides a few low level utilities.
### optimize
The core of SVGO is `optimize` function.
```jsconst { optimize } = require('svgo');const result = optimize(svgString, { // optional but recommended field path: 'path-to.svg', // all config fields are also available here multipass: true,});const optimizedSvgString = result.data;```
### loadConfig
If you write a tool on top of SVGO you might need a way to load SVGO config.
```jsconst { loadConfig } = require('svgo');const config = await loadConfig();
// you can also specify a relative or absolute path and customize the current working directoryconst config = await loadConfig(configFile, cwd);```
