How to customize react-show-more more or less text to Material-UI Icons

Question

I'm using react show more text controller in my spfx webpart using react. i need to replace showMore and showLess string link with ExpandMore and ExpandLess material ui icons in my webpart.is there any method for this?

<ShowMoreText
  /* Default options */
  lines={2}
  more="Show More"
  less="Show less"
  anchorClass=""
  onClick={this.executeOnClick}
  expanded={false}
>
  {item["description"]}
</ShowMoreText>

I refered this https://npmjs.com/package/react-show-more-text

Method

Pass the <Icon /> directly to related props would work fine.

<ShowMoreText
  more={<ExpandMore />}
  less={<ExpandLess />}
  ...
/>
