löve-icon

Zero-dependency icon convertor to turn .png into .ico and .icns files for LÖVE.

This module is built to work with versions 11.X and 12.X

---

Usage

Simply require the module in your game, some usage examples are shown below. You can also run the main.lua file with LÖVE to see some basic examples in action.

As this module uses the LÖVE filesystem, your file paths should be relative to save directory or your project path as they are passed directly to love.filesystem.x.

-- load the module
require('love-icon')

-- load a given png
local icon = love.icon:newIcon('examples/love-hammer.png')

-- create an ico file
local success, err = icon:convertToICO('loveicon/hammer.ico')

-- create an icns file
local success, err = icon:convertToICNS('loveicon/hammer.icns')

Notes

For best results the PNG you use should be at least 256px x 256px. Anything smaller may result in blurry results when shown at higher resolutions.
