Svg Tag

Overview

Working with inline SVGs gives you the ability to cache them along with your markup and style them with CSS. It's one of the best reasons to work with SVG images.

To make dev life easier, this tag collapses whitespace automatically and can set attributes like class or height/width for you. It looks in resources and public automatically to keep your src parameter nice and short, like a summer haircut.

Example

// Using resources/svg/circle.svg
{{ svg src="circle" class="fill-current text-teal" }}

// Using public/img/icons/square
{{ svg src="img/icons/square" class="fill-current text-mint" }}

// Using a variable `promo_graphic` (defined in your blueprint)
{{ svg :src="promo_graphic" class="fill-current text-orange" }}

// Using resources/svg/circle.svg
<s:svg src="circle" class="fill-current text-teal" />

// Using public/img/icons/square
<s:svg src="img/icons/square" class="fill-current text-mint" />

// Using a variable `promo_graphic` (defined in your blueprint)
<s:svg :src="$promo_graphic" class="fill-current text-orange" />

<svg class="fill-current text-teal" viewBox="0 0 100 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">>
  <circle cx="50" cy="50" r="50"/>
</svg>

<svg class="fill-current text-mint" viewBox="0 0 220 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">>
  <rect width="100" height="100" />
</svg>

Sanitization

All SVGs are sanitized on upload into the control panel and on output for to pretect your site from malicious code or other forms of potential compromise. You can learn more about what's possible for hackers to attempt with SVGs.

However, this sanitization may prove to be more aggressive than is beneficial for you. If you are complete control of your uploads and trust your control panel users, you can disable sanitzation on upload in your assets config file like this:

// config/statamic/assets.php
'svg_sanitization_on_upload' => false,

Combine that setting with the sanitize="false" or allow_attrs parameters documented below to allow those additional SVG attributes and elements to render on your frontend.
