colby-svg

A library of SVGs used across projects, with a PHP class for loading and echoing them, plus a shortcode for use in WordPress themes.

Install

Install the package into your PHP project or WordPress theme:

composer require colbycomms/colby-svg

Usage

Ensure vendor/autoload.php is included in your project. This makes the ColbyComms\SVG\SVG class available via autoloading.

ColbyComms\SVG\SVG::get( string $name = '' ) : string

Retrieves an SVG as a string (or an empty string if the file is not found).

<?php

use ColbyComms\SVG\SVG;

$colby_logo = SVG::get( 'colby-logo' ); // Gets the contents of colby-logo.svg as a string.

ColbyComms\SVG\SVG::show( string $name = '' )

Echoes an SVG to the output buffer (or echoes an empty string if the file is not found.).

<?php

use ColbyComms\SVG\SVG;

SVG::show( 'colby-logo' ); // Echoes colby-logo.svg.

The current list of available SVGs can be viewed in this repository's /svg directory.

Shortcode

A shortcode, [colby-svg], is available in WordPress projects that include this package. It accepts a single attribute, name, corresponding to the SVG filename.

[colby-svg name="colby-logo"] <!-- Outputs colby-logo.svg -->
