SVG to PNG converter for Icons for the Apple App Store

AKA, a way not to have to make 17 copies of the same file

This is a shell script that converts one SVG into all the PNGs apple requires for icons for an app submission.

Overview

Hey there! I hope you're making a really cool app. Generating the many icons for the app store is a pain in the boot, so this will take care of that for you.

Currently, this generates PNGs with the dimensions:

• 20 x 20
• 29 x 29
• 40 x 40
• 58 x 58
• 60 x 60
• 76 x 76
• 80 x 80
• 87 x 87
• 120 x 120
• 152 x 152
• 167 x 167
• 180 x 180
• 83.5 x 83.5
• 1024 x 1024

It works best with SVGs, but will work with pretty much any file.

This is a shell script, so you will run this from your Terminal.

This script was written for Macs, but may work with other machines!

How to use

Requirements

You must have the imagemagick convert package installed.

To install, if using homebrew (you should), run

brew install imagemagick

Setup

Nagivate to the folder where the shell script is (by default, it will be wherever you clone this repository to). Then, give this file permission to execute

chmod 755 svg2pngs4apple.sh

After that, you will be ready to run the script.

Using the program

To run, execute the shell script with your file name as the only argument.

Example:

./svg2pngs4apple.sh jar-logo.svg

This will create a directory called "PNGs" that has all the files you need.

Done! Enjoy & good luck!
