A quick-and-dirty plugin to optimize your svg files in nvim using svgo
I use something simpler in my config that runs on
BufWritePost
:silent !svgo %
I wrote that right after reading this koan:
Master Wq and the Markdown acolyte
A Markdown acolyte came to Master Wq to demonstrate his Vim plugin.
“See, master,” he said, “I have nearly finished the Vim macros that translate Markdown into HTML. My functions interweave, my parser is a paragon of efficiency, and the results nearly flawless. I daresay I have mastered Vimscript, and my work will validate Vim as a modern editor for the enlightened developer! Have I done rightly?”
Master Wq read the acolyte’s code for several minutes without saying anything. Then he opened a Markdown document, and typed:
:%!markdown
HTML filled the buffer instantly. The acolyte began to cry.
Awesome, thanks for sharing
What do you mean by “optimizing”?
Quote from svgo:
SVG Optimizer is a Node.js-based tool for optimizing SVG vector graphics files.
Why?
SVG files, especially those exported from various editors, usually contain a lot of redundant and useless information. This can include editor metadata, comments, hidden elements, default or non-optimal values and other stuff that can be safely removed or converted without affecting the SVG rendering result.
