How to add additional svg icons using the Heroicon plugin in phoenix 1.7.2

Questions & Help Questions

TLDR; Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations of how to add custom svg icons to the new hero_icon setup in phoenix 1.7

This is probably a silly question, but I have been struggling with this and cannot find any resources on it.

I’ve been making use of the heroicon built in <.icon /> solution phoenix comes with, but I now have a need for social media icons (linkedin, facebook, etc.) and heroicons seems to have no interest in adding them to their list, so it seems I need to add them myself.

I’ve tried multiple approaches to add additional svg icons to the the vendor/heroicons folder, the asset seems to get built and I can see the compiled svg in the compiled .css file, but it is always blank. Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations of how to add custom svgs?

Not directly what you’re asking, but you may find this library useful: iconify_ex | Hex

Nice lib.

Wondering if you ever found a suitable solution to this. I’m running into the same thing, in that I need to add an empty circle (e.g., just like the heroicons circle-check but… just circle). For now I’ve dropped a new svg into my generated hero_icons dir… yeek.
