In this short article, we are going to look at how quickly and in an automated way, export some SVG files to PNG icons with Bash and Inkscape.

Practical example

Do the following steps:

1. Create export.sh file:

#!/bin/bash

icon="icon.svg"                                         # input icon

# program="/C/Program Files/Inkscape/bin/inkscape.exe"  # for windows x64
# program="/C/Program Files/Inkscape/inkscape.exe"      # for windows x64
program="inkscape"                                      # for linux

for i in 48 72 96 144 192 256 384 512;
do
    "${program}" --export-type="png" --export-filename="./icon-${i}x${i}.png" -w "${i}" -h "${i}" "${icon}"

    # "${program}" -z -e "./icon-${i}x${i}.png" -w "${i}" -h "${i}" "${icon}";
done

2. Add permissions for script if it is necessary:

chmod +x export.sh

3. Run export.sh:

./export.sh

4. Result:
You should see in the same directory png files.

Note: do not forget to use squared svg icon.
