This is a simple tool to convert Dan Klammer's Bytesize Icons to a Jinja2 macro.

Bytesize Icons are tiny SVG-based icons intended to be embedded directly in HTML pages, and styled with CSS.

Jinja2 is a popular templating engine for Python.

For convenience, the resulting macro is included in this repository. (It might be outdated, though – check the Bytesize site for updates.)

In your Jinja template, grab the file with the macro, then import and use it:

{% from "bytesize_icons.jinja" import bytesize_icon %}
{{ bytesize_icon('heart') }}

If you want to regenerate the macro, you will need Python 3.6+. If you have GNU make, just run that:

$ make

Or, do the steps manually:

• Download bytesize-symbols.svg from https://github.com/danklammer/bytesize-icons
• Run ./bytesize-to-jinja.py < bytesize-symbols.svg

If you did this because the included macro is outdated, consider sending a pull request for bytesize-to-jinja. Thanks!
