Lucide Vue Next

Implementation of the lucide icon library for Vue 3 applications.

Vue 3 or Vue 2

::: tip This version of lucide is for Vue 3, For Vue 2 got to lucide-vue -> :::

Installation

::: code-group

pnpm install lucide-vue-next
yarn add lucide-vue-next
npm install lucide-vue-next

:::

How to use

Lucide is built with ES Modules, so it's completely tree-shakable.

Each icon can be imported as a Vue component, which renders an inline SVG Element. This way only the icons that are imported into your project are included in the final bundle. The rest of the icons are tree-shaken away.

Example

You can pass additional props to adjust the icon.

<script setup>
import { Camera } from 'lucide-vue-next';
</script>

<template>
  <Camera
    color="red"
    :size="32"
  />
</template>

Props

name type default
size number 24
color string currentColor
stroke-width number 2
absolute-stroke-width boolean false
default-class string lucide-icon

Applying props

To customize the appearance of an icon, you can pass custom properties as props directly to the component. The component accepts all SVG attributes as props, which allows flexible styling of the SVG elements. See the list of SVG Presentation Attributes on MDN.

<template>
  <Camera fill="red" />
</template>

With Lucide lab or custom icons

Lucide lab is a collection of icons that are not part of the Lucide main library.

They can be used by using the Icon component. All props like regular lucide icons can be passed to adjust the icon appearance.

Using the Icon component

This creates a single icon based on the iconNode passed and renders a Lucide icon component.

<script setup>
import { Icon } from 'lucide-vue-next';
import { burger } from '@lucide/lab';
</script>

<template>
  <Icon :iconNode="burger" />
</template>

One generic icon component

It is possible to create one generic icon component to load icons, but it is not recommended.

::: danger The example below imports all ES Modules, so exercise caution when using it. Importing all icons will significantly increase the build size of the application, negatively affecting its performance. This is especially important when using bundlers like Webpack, Rollup, or Vite. :::

Icon Component Example

<script setup>
import { computed } from 'vue';
import * as icons from "lucide-vue-next";

const props = defineProps({
  name: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
  size: Number,
  color: String,
  strokeWidth: Number,
  defaultClass: String
})

const icon = computed(() => icons[props.name]);
</script>

<template>
  <component
    :is="icon"
    :size="size"
    :color="color"
    :stroke-width="strokeWidth" :default-class="defaultClass"
  />
</template>

Using the Icon Component

All other props listed above also work on the Icon Component.

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <Icon name="Airplay" />
  </div>
</template>
