Is there a way to bulk convert svg files using Android Asset Studio?

Question

I have a large number of svg files I want to convert to xml vector assets for Android.

The documented process is, for each file, File->New->Vector Asset. Then choose the svg file, click Next then Finish.

Is there a faster way? Maybe a bash comment to launch Asset Studio?

Answer 1

The Resource Manager tool that was added in Android Studio version 3.4 can bulk import SVGs and convert them into vector drawables.

1. Tools → Resource Manager
2. Select the Drawable tab
3. Click the + button in the top left corner
4. Select Import Drawables

There you can select all the files you want to import at once. More details here.

Answer 2

There are few Git projects which would help you achieve the bulk conversion of svg files to Vector Drawable supported by android.

1. Juraj Novák's : http://inloop.github.io/svg2android/
   

2. SvgToVectorDrawableConverter original repo was deleted. But you could choose one of the fork . Example: svg2vd -i "\*" -o out --fix-fill-type

3. For single conversion: SVG to Vector Drawable Convertor online

4. Use wrapper of original converter ported from Android Studio

Hope it helps!
