These are some bash scripts to automate the generating of PNG and Vector Drawable icons for mobile apps from an SVG source file.
- macOS or Linux (untested on Windows Subsystem for Linux)
- Inkscape
- ImageMagick
- pngquant
- zopflipng
- libxml2
- npm
- Java
Most of these packages can be installed using the system package manager on Linux, or package managers such as Homebrew or MacPorts on macOS.
Usage: iconize [-d] [-b COLOR] [--force-bg] INPUTFILE [OUTPUTDIR]
This tool generates app icons for iOS and Android apps from the SVG file given
in INPUTFILE. It is expected that the input file is an SVG with a canvas size
of 192×192 with a transparent background. A solid background colour can be
added to the output via the --background/-b option.
If OUTPUTDIR is not specified, it defaults to a folder named 'out' in the
current directory.
By default, it will generate a single 1024⨉1024 PNG icon for iOS, as supported
by recent versions of Xcode. The option --ios-old can be specified to
generate all the icon sizes needed for older versions.
Likewise, for Android it will attempt to convert the SVG into an Android Vector
Drawable. This behaviour can be disabled with --no-vector, and PNG images for
older versions can be generated using --android-old.
Generation of iOS or Android icons can be disabled with --no-ios and
--no-android respectively.
Partial support for web favicons can be enabled with the --web option.
Usage: notify-iconize [INPUTFILE]
This tool generates Android notification icons from the SVG file given in
INPUTFILE. It is expected that the input file is an SVG with a square canvas
size and a transparent background.
In theory, this script works on both macOS and Linux. It is much less tested
than the iconize script.
