🔧 Publishing Assets (Optional)

If you need the raw SVG files as static assets:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=blade-feather-icons --force

This will publish the icons to public/vendor/feather-icons/.

Then use them in your views:

<img src="{{ asset('vendor/feather-icons/heart.svg') }}" width="24" height="24" alt="Heart" />

Note: This is rarely needed. Using Blade components (default) is recommended for better performance and control.

🔄 Syncing Icons from NPM

Want to keep your icons up-to-date with the latest Feather Icons releases? You can sync SVG files directly from the npm package.

Prerequisites

First, install the official Feather Icons npm package in your project:

npm install feather-icons --save-dev

Sync Command

Run the sync command to update your package's SVG files:

php artisan feathericons:sync

This will:

✅ Copy all icons from node_modules/feather-icons/dist/icons to the package
✅ Detect new, updated, and unchanged icons
✅ Display a detailed progress report

Dry Run

Preview changes without actually copying files:

php artisan feathericons:sync --dry-run

Example output:

Syncing Feather Icons...
████████████████████████████ 100%

Total icons .......... 287
Would be added ....... 5
Would be updated ..... 12
Unchanged ............ 270

Run without --dry-run to apply these changes.

Custom NPM Path

If your node_modules is in a non-standard location:

php artisan feathericons:sync --npm-path=/custom/path/to/project

When to Sync

📦 After updating the feather-icons npm package
🆕 When new icons are released by Feather Icons
🔧 If you manually modified icons and want to revert to originals

Note: This is a unique feature not available in other Blade icon packages! It gives you full control over your icon versions.

🧪 Testing

The package includes comprehensive Pest tests:

composer test

Run tests with coverage:

composer test-coverage

📚 Advanced Usage

Using the Helper Function

You can also use the svg() helper function:

{!! svg('feathericon-heart', 'w-6 h-6 text-red-500') !!}

With multiple attributes:

{!! svg('feathericon-star', ['class' => 'w-6 h-6', 'style' => 'color: gold']) !!}

Custom Prefix

If you want to change the default feathericon- prefix, you can extend the service provider in your own application.

Blade Icons Features

This package is built on top of Blade Icons. You can use all Blade Icons features:

🐛 Troubleshooting

Icons not showing?

Make sure you've installed the package: composer require brunocfalcao/blade-feather-icons
Clear Laravel's cache: php artisan view:clear && php artisan cache:clear
Check your icon name matches the filename in resources/svg/

Wrong icon name?

Icon names use kebab-case. For example:

alert-triangle.svg → <x-feathericon-alert-triangle />
arrow-up-right.svg → <x-feathericon-arrow-up-right />

Using with Livewire?

Blade Feather Icons works perfectly with Livewire. Just use the components as normal:

<div>
    @if($isActive)
        <x-feathericon-check-circle class="w-5 h-5 text-green-500" />
    @else
        <x-feathericon-x-circle class="w-5 h-5 text-red-500" />
    @endif
</div>
