Material Icons Laravel Bridge

Easily use Google Material Design SVG icons in Laravel Blade templates.

For a full list of available icons see the SVG directories.

Requirements

• PHP 7.2 or higher
• Laravel 7.14 or higher
• blade-ui-kit/blade-icons

Using version 1.x? Check the upgrade guide.

Installation

You can install this package via Composer by running this command in your terminal in the root of your project:

The service provider MaterialIcons\MaterialIconsBridgeServiceProvider::class is automatically registered as part of the Laravel service discovery

Configuration

By default the class icon is added to the svg tag when inserted into a page. You can change this behavior by overriding the configuration using the config/materialiconset.php file.

A ready to use configuration file can be inserted in your config directory using php artisan vendor:publish --provider="MaterialIcons\MaterialIconsBridgeServiceProvider"

You can specify any default CSS classes you'd like to be applied to your icons using the class option:

You can specify multiple classes by separating them with a space, just like you would in an HTML class attribute.

Usage

Blade directive

To insert an icon in your template use the @materialicon directive, passing the name of the material icon set, the name of the icon and optionally any additional classes:

To add additional attributes to the rendered SVG tag, pass an associative array as the third parameter:

If you'd like, you can use the materialicon helper directly. The helper exposes a fluent syntax for setting icon attributes:

Blade components

All icons are available as Blade components, thanks to Blade Icons

The component name format is: package name materialicon, the set within the package toggle and the file name ic_star_half_24px.

You can also pass classes to your icon components:

Or any other attributes for that matter:

Helper

If you'd like, you can use the materialicon helper to expose a fluent syntax for setting SVG attributes:

Use another icon set

Even if this package makes easy to use Google's Material Design icons, it is not limited to that iconset.

You can still use a different iconset as behind the scenes the blade-ui-kit/blade-icons package is used.

Please check Blade Icon's documentation for all the configuration options and how to insert icons within your Blade views.
