Lucide Icons Web Components

The @dile/iconlib package provides an easy way to use icons from the Lucide Icons library through native Custom Elements based on the Web Components standard.

These elements let you integrate icons using simple HTML tags like this:

<dile-lucide-icon-bird></dile-lucide-icon-bird>

Using the tag above will display the following icon with default styles:

<dile-lucide-icon-bird></dile-lucide-icon-bird>

This integration also provides various utilities that let you style icons conveniently, among other features described in this page.

Installation

npm install @dile/iconlib 

Usage

First, import the icon you want to use in your app or website:

import '@dile/iconlib/lucide-icons/bird.js';

In this case, the icon is "bird". To find the specific name of each icon, visit the Lucide Icons documentation page and search for the icon you want to integrate.

Once you have imported the icon into your project, use the corresponding Custom Element tag, which looks like this:

<dile-lucide-icon-bird></dile-lucide-icon-bird>

rounded Attribute

The rounded boolean attribute adds a rounded background area around the SVG, turning the icon into a button-like appearance.

Use it like this:

<dile-icon-lucide name="bird" rounded></dile-icon-lucide>

This applies padding and a circular border radius through CSS custom properties like --dile-icon-rounded-background-color and --dile-icon-rounded-padding.

CSS Custom Properties

To style icons easily, use the CSS Custom Properties shown in the table below.

Custom property Description Default
--dile-icon-size Icon size 24px
--dile-icon-color Icon color #888
--dile-icon-stroke-width SVG stroke width 2px
--dile-icon-transition-duration Transition duration 0.3s
--dile-icon-rounded-background-color Background color for rounded icons #eee
--dile-icon-rounded-padding Padding for rounded icons 0.5rem

Generic dile-lucide-icon Component

A generic component also exists that lets you import any icon from the Lucide library using a single tag. Specify the icon name via the icon attribute:

<dile-lucide-icon icon="notebook"></dile-lucide-icon>

See the full documentation page for the generic dile-lucide-icon for complete usage instructions.

Included Icons

This package provides all icons available in the Lucide Icons library. You can browse thousands of icons directly in the Lucide documentation. Each icon has its corresponding Custom Element tag:

<dile-icon-lucide name="accessibility"></dile-icon-lucide>
<dile-icon-lucide name="warehouse"></dile-icon-lucide>
<!-- ... -->

All icons accept the same attributes and CSS custom properties. Examples in action are shown below.
