## 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
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```sh
 | 
						||
npm -g install svgo
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
or
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```sh
 | 
						||
yarn global add svgo
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
## CLI usage
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```sh
 | 
						||
svgo 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
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```sh
 | 
						||
svgo -f ./path/to/folder/with/svg/files -o ./path/to/folder/with/svg/output
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
See help for advanced usage
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```sh
 | 
						||
svgo --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.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
module.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:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
module.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.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
module.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:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
const 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.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
const { 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.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
const { loadConfig } = require('svgo');
 | 
						||
const config = await loadConfig();
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
// you can also specify a relative or absolute path and customize the current working directory
 | 
						||
const config = await loadConfig(configFile, cwd);
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
## Built-in plugins
