@carbon/icons-angular

Angular components for icons in digital and software products using the Carbon Design System

Getting started

To install @carbon/icons-angular in your project, you will need to run the following command using npm:

npm install -S @carbon/icons-angular

If you prefer Yarn, use the following command instead:

yarn add @carbon/icons-angular

Usage

Icons in this package support the following sizes: 16, 20, 24, and 32 pixels. These sizes refer to the width and height of the icon. To reduce bundle sizes each icon is exported as it's own module, you can use an icon component in your project by doing the following:

In your module:

import { AddModule } from '@carbon/icons-angular';

@NgModule({
  // ...
  imports: [
    // ...
    AddModule,
    // ...
  ],
  // ...
})
export class MyModule {}

In your component template:

<!-- ... -->
<!-- the directive should be preferd whenever possible -->
<svg ibmIconAdd size="32"></svg>
<!-- but a component is also available -->
<ibm-icon-add size="32"></ibm-icon-add>
<!-- ... -->

Legacy usage notes

In your module:

import { Add32Module } from '@carbon/icons-angular/lib/add/32.js';

@NgModule({
  // ...
  imports: [
    // ...
    Add32Module,
    // ...
  ],
  // ...
})
export class MyModule {}

Note: if you would like to find the import path for an icon, you can reference our icon preview

In your component template:

<!-- ... -->
<svg ibmIconAdd32></svg>
<!-- or -->
<ibm-icon-add32></ibm-icon-add32>
<!-- ... -->

API

Options available to the icon directive or component:

# @Input() size: string;

Choses the size of the component. Note: not available for icons specified by direct path

Example:

<ibm-icon-add size="16"></ibm-icon-add>

# @Input() innerClass: string;

Applies a classList to the inner SVG. Use the normal class attribute to apply classes to the host element.

Example:

<ibm-icon-add size="16" innerClass="inner-class" class="host-class"></ibm-icon-add>

would result in

<ibm-icon-add size="16" class="host-class">
  <svg class="inner-class"><!-- ... --></svg>
</ibm-icon-add>

# @Input() ariaLabel: string;

If supplied, should provide an accessible description of the icon.

Example:

<ibm-icon-add size="16" ariaLabel="Add a new item"></ibm-icon-add>

# @Input() ariaLabelledby: string;

If supplied, should link to an element providing an accessible description of the icon.

Example:

<label id="itemAddLabel">Add a new item</label>
<ibm-icon-add size="16" ariaLabelledby="itemAddLabel"></ibm-icon-add>

# @Input() ariaHidden: boolean;

Controls the visibility of the underlying SVG to screen readers.

Example:

<ibm-icon-add size="16" ariaHidden="true"></ibm-icon-add>

# @Input() title: string;

Adds a <title> element to the inner SVG. Most browsers will display this text as a tooltip when the icon is hovered.

Example:

<ibm-icon-add size="16" title="Add a new item"></ibm-icon-add>

# @Input() focusable: boolean;

Enables or disables the focusable attribute. Set this to explicitly control whether the underlying element should receive focus. Defaults to false in most cases.

Example:

<ibm-icon-add size="16" focusable="false"></ibm-icon-add>
