The Icon Image API creates a PNG, JPEG, Base64 or just echos SVG from and existing icon SVG definition path string.
I've written my own lightweight SVG parser to separate that function from any 3rd party drawing library. The following example can pull SVG from any data store (including other SVG respository sites), resource file or parse a POST body.
Colors can be specified in a number of ways including the standard web color names. You can also use 3, 4, 6 or 8 digit hex values where the prefixing hash is optional. The last hex value is the alpha chanel assumed to be fully opaque. You can also use JSON object naming in the format rgb(0-255,0-255,0-255) or rgba(0-255,0-255,0-255,0-1). Setting a color value to the explicit value 'empty' will set it to fully transparent which is the same as 0000.
The default resulting format is PNG. You can also set format to JPG, SVG, HTML or Original which will just return the orginal un-transformed SVG path string (mainly used to test). HTML just wraps the SVG version in an HTML page. If you wan to import into some other drawing tool use SVG.
You can also reference the OpenAPI Docs.
