How do I display SVG image in Rails?

Question

I have a svg image on /app/asssets/images/symbols.svg with this as contents.

Answer 1

Create a helper: (content is different in each case, custom your own one)

def icon(icon, css_class: "")
  content_tag(:svg, class: "icon icon_#{icon} #{css_class}") do
      content_tag(:use, nil, 'xlink:href' => "#icon_#{icon}")
  end
end

Use it like this:

<%= icon 'arrow-menu' , css_class: 'arrow-breadcrumb' %>
