Usage

Usage in strapi

• Select your prefered icon libraries on the settings page.
• Add react-icon as custom field to your content type.
• Press the search icon to select a icon from any of the selected icon libraries.

Usage in React / Next.js

Create the following IconComponent to dynamically show the icon:

import * as ReactIcons from "react-icons/all";

interface IIconComponent {
  icon: string;
  size?: number;
}
type IReactIcon = keyof typeof ReactIcons;

const IconComponent: React.FC<IIconComponent> = ({ icon, size }) => {
  const DynamicIconComponent = ReactIcons[icon as IReactIcon];

  if (undefined === DynamicIconComponent) return <></>;

  return <DynamicIconComponent size={size} />;
};

Planned features

• custom field for react-icons
• selection modal for the custom field
• settings page for enabling / disabling icon libraries
