figma-export-icons

This was forked from the original figma-export-icons package that hasn't been maintained.

Forked additions

ExportVariants

In the config you can optionally supply exportVariants: true if you want it to export and split the variant/component icon in figma. It will give each icon variant a different named suffix according to variant name.

config property: exportVariants

maxConcurrentConnections

When the amount of icons gets above ~400 it was causing S3 errors (from where Figma hosts the assets). This config param allows you to pass a number value to lower that and to chunk the request in smaller batches.

config property: maxConcurrentConnections

frames

The config frame option only allows a single-frame to be defined. You can optionally set the frames config option and pass an array of frame names. If it can't find a matching frame you will not get an error like with the single frame option.

config property: frames

figmaPersonalToken env variable

Added support for an env variable set to FIGMA_PERSONAL_TOKEN so that the config file can be committed without it.

env variable FIGMA_PERSONAL_TOKEN

skipIgnore command line argument

By default the script will add the config file to the .gitignore file. This gives users of this script to have final say on security risks. When paired with an env variable Figma token this should be turned off.

command line arg --skip-ignore
