What is this

A commandline tool to copy Android Material Design and FontAwesome icons to your project folders: drawable-ldpi, drawable-mdpi, and etc.

How it works

It downloads from these repos:

• Material design: https://github.com/google/material-design-icons
• FontAwesome and "Classic" Android: https://github.com/svenkapudija/Android-Action-Bar-Icons

Resolution supported

 | l | m | h | xh | xxh | xxxh | 

--------|---|---|---|----|-----|------| FA | Y | Y | Y | Y | Y | - | Classic | - | Y | Y | Y | Y | - | Material| - | Y | Y | Y | Y | Y |

Sizes supported

Material: 18, 24, 36, 48 dp. FA and Classic: 32 dp only.

Usage

Usage: Material

: ./copy {
proj path
}
 {
category
}
 {
color
}
 {
icon name
}
 [size] Classic and FA: ./copy {
proj path
}
 {
fa/classic
}
 {
color
}
 {
icon name
}
 

[] denotes optional args. Args are case sensitive!

• proj path: Path to project folder relative to base path.
  • base path can be defined in options file (see below).
  • Auto-detects new or old project structure: MyProject/src/main/res or MyProject/res.
• category: Either "classic", "fa", or Material category.
• color: Color of icon: Either "white", "grey" or "black".
  • For Classic and FA, "white" refers to the Holo Dark theme (dark background). "Grey" refers to the Holo Light theme.
  • For Material, "grey" refers to grey600.
• icon name: Name of icon (must replace spaces and dashes with underscores).
  • Without any prefix. Examples: FontAwesome "thumbs_up", Classic "search".
• size (integer): for Material only, Size in dp, defaults to 24 which is the action bar icon size for material design.

Examples

• ./copy MyProject maps white place
  • Downloads to `BasePath/MyProject/{ src/main } /res/drawable-{ m,h,xh,xxh,xxh } dpi
• ./copy MyProject maps white place 48
• ./copy Path/to/MyProject fa grey thumbs_up

Windows users need to use python copy instead (I think).

Filename mapping

The tool also supports filename mapping of destination png files. (see options) Mapping vars:

• cat: category
• name: name as specified in commandline.
• color: color as specified: white, black, grey.
• size: integer only.
• bg: derived from color. black => bright, white => dark, grey => light.
• bgSuffix: "_dark" if bg is dark else empty string.

Options file

Named options.json in same dir. Sample:

{

  "basePath": "~/Documents",
  "filenameMap": {

"classic": "ic_action_{
name
}
{
bgSuffix
}
.png",

"fa": "ic_action_fa_{
name
}
{
bgSuffix
}
.png",

"material": "ic_{
name
}
_{
color
}
_{
size
}
dp.png"
  
}
 
}

~ is expanded to the user home dir.

./copy Path/to/MyProject fa white thumbs_up results in the target filename of ic_action_fa_thumbs_up_dark.png.
