Figma Document Setup

  1. Create a Figma document with frames on the top level of a page.
  2. Assets are extracted by frame name.
  3. For each Figma document used in your project, create a *.figma file containing the Figma File ID, e.g. eMV7Sxpjs7y6HhnQyC0roR

Here's an example of a figma document layout:

document 'icons'
  page 'Page 1'
    frame 'star'
    frame 'fish'
    frame 'facebook'
    frame 'twitter'

Example usage in CSS

You can use the relative url to your figma document. Query parameter frame specified the target frame, and optional color tints the image.

.icon-star { background-image: url(./icons.figma?frame=star); }
.icon-fish { background-image: url(./icons.figma?frame=fish); }
.icon-facebook { background-image: url(./icons.figma?frame=facebook); }
.icon-twitter { background-image: url(./icons.figma?frame=twitter&color=FF0000); }

Example usage in JS

Import the 'icon' function, which generates a base64-encoded data-uri.

// require your figma document
const { icon } = require('./icons.figma')

// generate star icon
const starIcon = icon('star')

// generate red star icon, by replacing 'black' color to '#FF0000'
const starIconRed = icon('star', '#FF0000')
