Missing icon packs

[sachinraja]

Hey, first of all, thanks for making this, this makes working with icons much easier for me.

Would it be possible to update @iconify/json? https://github.com/natemoo-re/astro-icon/blob/d2e7fafe79369df19f79fe120e00fc829c27ab62/packages/service/package.json#L21-L25

I want to use an icon added in a newer version of a pack but @iconify/json is not on the latest version here.

[natemoo-re]

Thanks for opening an issue! I'm thinking through how to version the service without breaking anyone... do you know which version of @iconify/json you need?

[sachinraja]

I need version 2.0.10, where the Simple Icons collection added the Astro icon. I'm not sure what the breaking change is.

[peterlobster]

I would like to see this updated too. There are actually quite a few icons missing from our current set vs upstream's current set. It looks like the version used here seems to be about 6 months old.

@natemoo-re I believe that they update the upstream repo quite a bit (3 times a week by (a) fully automated script). So it might be worth considering implementing Dependabot to assist?

[JulianCataldo]

Mhhh… I'm missing system-uicons:cubes and others too

[mgjules]

Is there any update on the issue or a roadmap? Thanks

[stramel]

@natemoo-re I just stumbled upon this issue as well. I'm not aware of the original decision behind the service but is the service necessary?

To bypass the versioning issue, would it make more sense to make @iconify/json a peer dependency in which the astro-icon loads from and grabs the icon data? Doing it this way would allow for each application to manage their version range of the @iconify/json and even lock it using a lock file. Switching to this would incur a breaking change still.

Alternatively, maybe we could lean on a CDN such as Skypack to handle the versioning request or unpkg for us and allow the service to accept a version range and pass it along to the CDN? (eg. 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/@iconify/json@~2.0', isn't currently working) (eg. https://unpkg.com/@iconify/json@~2.0.0/json/mdi.json)

I'm another one that just stumbled over this and have finally an explanation why some icons just wouldn't work.

I am in favor of @stramel's suggestion of making this a peer dependency, letting the individual applications manage the version of @iconify/json themself.

Same problem here is there any quick fix?

@DJOCKER-FACE My quick fix is to download the icons as SVG and use them as local icons.

[stramel]

@zaha @DJOCKER-FACE I forked and did a quick implementation using the updated tooling and @iconify/json as a peerDependency. Seems to be working 👍🏼

You can try it out using:

npm install -D 'https://gitpkg.now.sh/stramel/astro-icon/packages/core?main'
npm install @iconify/json

@natemoo-re @matthewp Let me know if you want me to clean it up and submit a PR (https://github.com/natemoo-re/astro-icon/compare/main...stramel:astro-icon:main)

Thank you very much for coming up with a solution! While newer icon packs now work with the dev server running locally, Vercel still seems to have problems as I now get the error Error: [astro-icon] Unable to load icon in the serverless function after deploying your solution when using an icon from the icon set fluent-emoji-high-contrast:

@SenseiMarv So I dug into this a bit today. The issue is that with the Vercel serverless functions, they don't deploy node_modules and the function is going to attempt to read from node_modules/@iconify/json folder upon request.

I'm looking into solutions currently as this would affect all serverless functions that don't have access to the node_modules folder. You can also swap to Vercel static adapter instead for the interim.

Good research! So, the issue in the deployment is actually not related to this issue. I tried to deploy using only icon sets that were existing in the old @iconify/json import and saw the same error. Concerning this, my issue is more related to issue https://github.com/natemoo-re/astro-icon/issues/35, so I will give that a thumbs up.

One note about switching to the static adapter: There are caveats connected to that switch. The following things have to be considered:

• import vercel from "@astrojs/vercel/serverless"; has to be changed to import vercel from "@astrojs/vercel/static"; in astro.config.mjs
• output: "server" has to be removed from astro.config.mjs
• It is now required to use getStaticPaths() in dynamic routes
• Server-side Rendering features like Astro.redirect are no longer available
• Some variables might become undefined, like: routes

[stramel]

@SenseiMarv I was able to get it up and working on Vercel. https://astro-icon-test-qjvhzptnd-stramel.vercel.app/

Huge thanks to @JuanM04 for the PR in the Vercel adapter to make this work. Once the changes in https://github.com/withastro/astro/pull/5085 have been merged, you should be able to do:

 adapter: vercel({
    includeFiles: [
        // replace the path below with path to the correct icon pack you want to include
        './node_modules/@iconify/json/json/heroicons.json', 
    ]
})

You can also test now with the next--include-files version on @astrojs/vercel

[manuelmeister]

What is actually the advantage of having a custom API, as opposed to using Iconify's API directly?

@natemoo-re why did you choose to create an API?

I've tried to create a small subset of this package without an own api: manuelmeister/astro-iconify and it works exactly the same, but without an intermediary api. Could this also be a way forward? (Of course we would need to support the old v1 api as well, now that we have introduced it)

Or would it be best if everyone had to use the iconify-json package as peer dependency if they want to use all packs without including the individual packs?

[mseele]

Any updates on this? Would be cool to use https://icones.js.org/collection/heroicons 👍

Why? because json-tools is depreciated in favor of @iconify/utils

[nimser]

I'm seeing the recent #105 and #111 that are supposed to close this but in my tests (using code from the v1 branch) it's still missing icons, e.g. (bi:balloon-heart-fill). Anything special to do on the user's end to make it work ?

[stramel]

@nimser Did you make sure to install @iconify-json/bi and update your config to include the package, icon({ include: { bi: ['*'] } })?

I was able to successfully reference bi:balloon-heart-fill using this fork. I haven't pushed the latest fixes and build to the v1 branch yet.

[csjui]

@stramel Can you please share the correct way to add this to the Astro config?

This should explain it https://github.com/natemoo-re/astro-icon/blob/950f8a56a6493891ec5539a885e438b74965e3dc/packages/core/README.md

[csjui]

Thanks. When I add import icon from "astro-icon"; to my config file and run dev, it gives an error about the Icon.astro file: ts file only able to be used if enabled as imports:

2:37:44 PM [vite] Error when evaluating SSR module /node_modules/astro-icon/index.ts: failed to import "/node_modules/astro-icon/lib/Icon.astro"
|- Error: Parse failure: Unexpected token (2:7)
At file: /node_modules/astro-icon/lib/Icon.astro
Contents of line 2: import load, { fallback, normalizeProps } from "/node_modules/astro-icon/lib/utils.ts";

Then I try adding "allowImportingTsExtensions": true, to tsconfig but get the following

2:54:54 PM [vite] Error when evaluating SSR module /Users/chris/Github/frontend_astro/astro.config.mjs: failed to import "/node_modules/astro-icon/index.ts"
|- Error: Parse failure: Unexpected token (2:7)
At file: /node_modules/astro-icon/lib/Icon.astro

Any help much appreciated

[stramel]

@csjui Sorry, I must have missed this comment in my notifications!

The error you are receiving is due to using the v0 astro-icon as the v1.

Please ensure that you have installed the latest code npm i astro-icon@next if you're trying to use the integration.

[nimser]

@stramel indeed I was missing porper conf. Works great now after a fresh install of astro-icon@next and proper conf. Thank you 🙏🏼
