Allow custom icons
Sometimes you may need an icon that's not included in Heroicons. It would be great if you could still use this gem for consistency throughout your codebase. Especially if you plan on closely following Heroicons' approach of having the three variants, etc.
I created the following monkey patch that first checks for a custom icon and falls back to the default icons. This way you can add new icons, and replace existing ones (although personally I'm unlikely to do that).
If there's interest I can create a PR for this that makes custom_path
configurable.
module Heroicon
class Icon
def file_path
custom_path = File.join(Rails.root, "app/assets/images/icons/heroicons/#{variant}/#{name}.svg")
if File.exist?(custom_path)
custom_path
else
File.join(Heroicon.root, "app/assets/images/heroicon/#{variant}/#{name}.svg")
end
end
end
end
