Inline SVG Upload and Preview for Sanity

Installing

In your Sanity studio folder, run:

sanity install sanity-plugin-inline-svg

Features

• Upload SVG as string that gets injected as HTML into a preview container
• Use on arrays to build a group of inline SVGs

Basic usage

TL;DR: Just use type: 'svgUploadPreview' on a field in your schema

NOTE Don't forget to import into your schema.js file:

import svgUploadPreview from 'sanity-plugin-inline-svg';

Long version: In your schema definitions (think schemas/clientList.js):

export default {
  name: 'clientList',
  title: 'My Past Clients',
  type: 'document',
  fields: [
    // ... other fields ...
    {
      name: 'svgUpload',
      title: 'Upload SVG File',
      type: 'svgUploadPreview',
    }
  ]
}

Within Array:

1. Create an object schema something like schemas/svgUploadArray.js

import SvgPreviewComponent from './svgPreviewComponent';

export default {
  type: 'object',
  name: 'svgUpload',
  title: 'Client Image Upload',
  fields: [
    {
      type: '',
      name: 'source',
      title: 'Client SVG Logo',
    },
  ],
  preview: {
    select: {
      svgHtml: 'source',
    },
    component: SvgPreviewComponent,
  },
};

2. Create a preview component for the array items schemas/svgPreviewComponent.js

import React from 'react';

function SvgPreviewComponent({ value }) {
  if (!value) {
    return <pre>Please upload an svg image</pre>;
  }
  return (
    <>
      <div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: value.svgHtml }} />
    </>
  );
}

export default SvgPreviewComponent;

3. In your schema definitions (think schemas/clientList.js):

export default {
  name: 'clientList',
  title: 'My Past Clients',
  type: 'document',
  fields: [
    // ... other fields ...
    {
      name: 'clientLogos',
      type: 'array',
      title: 'Client Logos',
      description: 'Client Logo Upload',
      options: {
        layout: 'grid',
      },
      of: [
        {
          title: 'Client Logos',
          type: 'svgUpload',
        },
      ],
    }
  ]
}
