### Editing Config through the UI
### `section.icon` and `section.item.icon`
Config can be modified directly through the UI, and then written to disk, or applied locally. This can be done wither with the raw config editor (introduced in V 0.6.5 / [#3](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/pull/3)), or the interactive editor (introduced in V 1.8.9 / [#298](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/pull/298)).

</a> ### Editing Config through the UI
</p>
Config can be modified directly through the UI, and then written to disk, or applied locally.

### About YAML
If you're new to YAML, it's pretty straight-forward. The format is exactly the same as that of JSON, but instead of using curly braces, structure is denoted using whitespace. This [quick guide](https://linuxhandbook.com/yaml-basics/) should get you up to speed in a few minutes, for more advanced topics take a look at this [Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML). <p align="center">
<a href="https://ibb.co/CzkyMNb">
### Config Saving Methods <b>Interactive Editor</b><br>
When updating the config through the JSON editor in the UI, you have two save options: **Local** or **Write to Disk**. <img alt="Interactive Editor demo" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1862727/139543020-b0576d28-0830-476f-afc8-a815d4de6def.gif" width="600" />
- Changes saved locally will only be applied to the current user through the browser, and will not apply to other instances - you either need to use the cloud sync feature, or manually update the conf.yml file. </a>
- On the other-hand, if you choose to write changes to disk, then your main `conf.yml` file will be updated, and changes will be applied to all users, and visible across all devices. For this functionality to work, you must be running Dashy with using the Docker container, or the Node server. A backup of your current configuration will also be saved in the same directory. <br>
<a href="https://ibb.co/zRv542H">
### Preventing Changes being Written to Disk <b>Raw Editor</b><br>
To disallow any changes from being written to disk via the UI config editor, set `appConfig.allowConfigEdit: false`. If you are using users, and have setup `auth` within Dashy, then only users with `type: admin` will be able to write config changes to disk. <img alt="Config Editor demo" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Lissy93/dashy/master/docs/assets/config-editor-demo.gif" width="600" />

Adding a new theme is really easy. There's two things you need to do: Pass the theme name to Dashy, so that it can be added to the theme selector dropdown menu, and then write some styles! - [Building a Widget](#building-a-widget)
##### 1. Add Theme Name ## Creating a new theme
Choose a snappy name for you're theme, and add it to the `builtInThemes` array inside [`defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js#L27).
Adding a new theme is really easy. There's two things you need to do: Pass the theme name to Dashy, so that it can be added to the theme selector dropdown menu, and then write some styles!
##### 2. Write some Styles!
Put your theme's styles inside [`color-themes.scss`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/styles/color-themes.scss). ##### 1. Add Theme Name
Create a new block, and make sure that `data-theme` matches the theme name you chose above. For example: Choose a snappy name for you're theme, and add it to the `builtInThemes` array inside [`defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js#L27).
```css ##### 2. Write some Styles!
html[data-theme='tiger'] { Put your theme's styles inside [`color-themes.scss`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/styles/color-themes.scss).
--primary: #f58233; Create a new block, and make sure that `data-theme` matches the theme name you chose above. For example:
--background: #0b1021;
} ```css
``` html[data-theme='tiger'] {
--primary: #f58233;
Then you can go ahead and write you're own custom CSS. Although all CSS is supported here, the best way to define you're theme is by setting the CSS variables. You can find a [list of all CSS variables, here](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/theming.md#css-variables). --background: #0b1021;
}
For a full guide on styling, see [Theming Docs](./theming.md). ```
Note that if you're theme is just for yourself, and you're not submitting a PR, then you can instead just pass it under `appConfig.cssThemes` inside your config file. And then put your theme in your own stylesheet, and pass it into the Docker container - [see how](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/theming.md#adding-your-own-theme).

Dashy is using [vue-i18n](https://vue-i18n.intlify.dev/guide/) to manage multi-language support. ## Writing Translations
Adding a new language is pretty straightforward, with just three steps: For full docs about Dashy's multi-language support, see [Multi-Language Support](./multi-language-support.md)
##### 1. Create a new Language File Dashy is using [vue-i18n](https://vue-i18n.intlify.dev/guide/) to manage multi-language support.
Create a new JSON file in `./src/assets/locales` name is a 2-digit [ISO-639 code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes) for your language, E.g. for German `de.json`, French `fr.json` or Spanish `es.json` - You can find a list of all ISO codes at [iso.org](https://www.iso.org/obp/ui).
Adding a new language is pretty straightforward, with just three steps:
##### 2. Translate!
Using [`en.json`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/tree/master/src/assets/locales/en.json) as an example, translate the JSON values to your language, while leaving the keys as they are. It's fine to leave out certain items, as if they're missing they will fall-back to English. If you see any attribute which include curly braces (`{xxx}`), then leave the inner value of these braces as is, as this is for variables. ##### 1. Create a new Language File

##### 3. Add your file to the app },
}
In [`./src/utils/languages.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/tree/master/src/utils/languages.js), you need to do 2 small things: ```
First import your new translation file, do this at the top of the page. ##### 3. Add your file to the app
E.g. `import de from '@/assets/locales/de.json';`
In [`./src/utils/languages.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/tree/master/src/utils/languages.js), you need to do 2 small things:
Second, add it to the array of languages, e.g:
```javascript First import your new translation file, do this at the top of the page.
export const languages = [ E.g. `import de from '@/assets/locales/de.json';`
{
name: 'English', Second, add it to the array of languages, e.g:
code: 'en', ```javascript
locale: en, export const languages = [
flag: '🇬🇧', {
}, name: 'English',
{ code: 'en',
name: 'German', // The name of your language locale: en,
code: 'de', // The ISO code of your language flag: '🇬🇧',
locale: de, // The name of the file you imported (no quotes) },
flag: '🇩🇪', // An optional flag emoji {
}, name: 'German', // The name of your language
]; code: 'de', // The ISO code of your language
``` locale: de, // The name of the file you imported (no quotes)
You can also add your new language to the readme, under the [Language Switching](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy#language-switching-) section, and optionally include your name/ username if you'd like to be credited for your work. Done! flag: '🇩🇪', // An optional flag emoji
},
If you are not comfortable with making pull requests, or do not want to modify the code, then feel free to instead send the translated file to me, and I can add it into the application. I will be sure to credit you appropriately. ];
```
# Adding a new option in the config file You can also add your new language to the readme, under the [Language Switching](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy#language-switching-) section, and optionally include your name/ username if you'd like to be credited for your work. Done!
This section is for, if you're adding a new component or setting, that requires an additional item to be added to the users config file. If you are not comfortable with making pull requests, or do not want to modify the code, then feel free to instead send the translated file to me, and I can add it into the application. I will be sure to credit you appropriately.
All of the users config is specified in `./public/conf.yml` - see [Configuring Docs](./configuring.md) for info. # Adding a new option in the config file
Before adding a new option in the config file, first ensure that there is nothing similar available, that is is definitely necessary, it will not conflict with any other options and most importantly that it will not cause any breaking changes. Ensure that you choose an appropriate and relevant section to place it under.
This section is for, if you're adding a new component or setting, that requires an additional item to be added to the users config file.
Next decide the most appropriate place for your attribute:
- Application settings should be located under `appConfig` All of the users config is specified in `./public/conf.yml` - see [Configuring Docs](./configuring.md) for info.
- Page info (such as text and metadata) should be under `pageInfo` Before adding a new option in the config file, first ensure that there is nothing similar available, that is is definitely necessary, it will not conflict with any other options and most importantly that it will not cause any breaking changes. Ensure that you choose an appropriate and relevant section to place it under.
- Data relating to specific sections should be under `section[n].displayData`
- And for setting applied to specific items, it should be under `item[n]` Next decide the most appropriate place for your attribute:
- Application settings should be located under `appConfig`
In order for the user to be able to add your new attribute using the Config Editor, and for the build validation to pass, your attribute must be included within the [ConfigSchema](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigSchema.js). You can read about how to do this on the [ajv docs](https://ajv.js.org/json-schema.html). Give your property a type and a description, as well as any other optional fields that you feel are relevant. For example: - Page info (such as text and metadata) should be under `pageInfo`
- Data relating to specific sections should be under `section[n].displayData`
```json - And for setting applied to specific items, it should be under `item[n]`
"fontAwesomeKey": {
"type": "string", In order for the user to be able to add your new attribute using the Config Editor, and for the build validation to pass, your attribute must be included within the [ConfigSchema](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigSchema.js). You can read about how to do this on the [ajv docs](https://ajv.js.org/json-schema.html). Give your property a type and a description, as well as any other optional fields that you feel are relevant. For example:
"pattern": "^[a-z0-9]{10}$",
"description": "API key for font-awesome", ```json
"example": "0821c65656" "fontAwesomeKey": {
} "type": "string",
``` "pattern": "^[a-z0-9]{10}$",
or "description": "API key for font-awesome",
```json "example": "0821c65656"
"iconSize": { }
"enum": [ "small", "medium", "large" ], ```
"default": "medium", or
"description": "The size of each link item / icon" ```json
} "iconSize": {
``` "enum": [ "small", "medium", "large" ],
"default": "medium",
Next, if you're property should have a default value, then add it to [`defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js). This ensures that nothing will break if the user does not use your property, and having all defaults together keeps things organised and easy to manage. "description": "The size of each link item / icon"
}
If your property needs additional logic for fetching, setting or processing, then you can add a helper function within [`ConfigHelpers.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigHelpers.js). ```
Finally, add your new property to the [`configuring.md`](./configuring.md) API docs. Put it under the relevant section, and be sure to include field name, data type, a description and mention that it is optional. If your new feature needs more explaining, then you can also document it under the relevant section elsewhere in the documentation. Next, if you're property should have a default value, then add it to [`defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js). This ensures that nothing will break if the user does not use your property, and having all defaults together keeps things organised and easy to manage.
Checklist: If your property needs additional logic for fetching, setting or processing, then you can add a helper function within [`ConfigHelpers.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/ConfigHelpers.js).

When Dashy is deployed to Netlify, it is effectively running as a static app, and therefore the server-side code for the Node.js endpoints is not available. However Netlify now supports serverless cloud lambda functions, which can be used to replace most functionality. ---
#### 1. Run Netlify Dev Server ## Developing Netlify Cloud Functions
First off, install the Netlify CLI: `npm install netlify-cli -g` When Dashy is deployed to Netlify, it is effectively running as a static app, and therefore the server-side code for the Node.js endpoints is not available. However Netlify now supports serverless cloud lambda functions, which can be used to replace most functionality.
Then, from within the root of Dashy's directory, start the server, by running: `netlify dev`

## Hiding Page Furniture on Certain Routes ```
For some pages (such as the login page, the minimal start page, etc) the basic page furniture, (like header, footer, nav, etc) is not needed. This section explains how you can hide furniture on a new view (step 1), or add a component that should be hidden on certain views (step 2).
---
##### 1. Add the route name to the should hide array
## Hiding Page Furniture on Certain Routes
In [`./src/utils/defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js), there's an array called `hideFurnitureOn`. Append the name of the route (the same as it appears in [`router.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/router.js)) here. For some pages (such as the login page, the minimal start page, etc) the basic page furniture, (like header, footer, nav, etc) is not needed. This section explains how you can hide furniture on a new view (step 1), or add a component that should be hidden on certain views (step 2).
##### 2. Add the conditional to the structural component to hide ##### 1. Add the route name to the should hide array
First, import the helper function: In [`./src/utils/defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js), there's an array called `hideFurnitureOn`. Append the name of the route (the same as it appears in [`router.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/router.js)) here.
```javascript
import { shouldBeVisible } from '@/utils/MiscHelpers'; ##### 2. Add the conditional to the structural component to hide
```
First, import the helper function:
Then you can create a computed value, that calls this function, passing in the route name: ```javascript
```javascript import { shouldBeVisible } from '@/utils/SectionHelpers';
export default { ```
...
computed: { Then you can create a computed value, that calls this function, passing in the route name:
... ```javascript
isVisible() { export default {
return shouldBeVisible(this.$route.name); ...
}, computed: {
}, ...
}; isVisible() {
``` return shouldBeVisible(this.$route.name);
},
Finally, in the markup of your component, just add a `v-if` statement, referencing your computed value },
```vue };
<header v-if="isVisible"> ```
...
</header> Finally, in the markup of your component, just add a `v-if` statement, referencing your computed value
``` ```vue
<header v-if="isVisible">

</header>
## Adding / Using Environmental Variables ```
All environmental variables are optional. Currently there are not many environmental variables used, as most of the user preferences are stored under `appConfig` in the `conf.yml` file.
---
You can set variables either in your environment, or using the [`.env`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/.env) file.
## Adding / Using Environmental Variables
Any environmental variables used by the frontend are preceded with `VUE_APP_`. Vue will merge the contents of your `.env` file into the app in a similar way to the ['dotenv'](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv) package, where any variables that you set on your system will always take preference over the contents of any `.env` file. All environmental variables are optional. Currently there are not many environmental variables used, as most of the user preferences are stored under `appConfig` in the `conf.yml` file.
If add any new variables, ensure that there is always a fallback (define it in [`defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js)), so as to not cause breaking changes. Don't commit the contents of your `.env` file to git, but instead take a few moments to document what you've added under the appropriate section. Try and follow the concepts outlined in the [12 factor app](https://12factor.net/config). You can set variables either in your environment, or using the [`.env`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/.env) file.

## Building a Widget
### Step 0 - Prerequisites
If this is your first time working on Dashy, then the [Developing Docs](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/developing.md) instructions for project setup and running. In short, you just need to clone the project, cd into it, install dependencies (`yarn`) and then start the development server (`yarn dev`).
To build a widget, you'll also need some basic knowledge of Vue.js. The [official Vue docs](https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/) provides a good starting point, as does [this guide](https://www.taniarascia.com/getting-started-with-vue/) by Tania Rascia
If you just want to jump straight in, then [here](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/commit/3da76ce2999f57f76a97454c0276301e39957b8e) is a complete implementation of a new example widget, or take a look at the [`XkcdComic.vue`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/components/Widgets/XkcdComic.vue) widget, which is pretty simple.
### Step 1 - Create Widget
Firstly, create a new `.vue` file under [`./src/components/Widgets`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/tree/master/src/components/Widgets).
```vue
<template>
<div class="example-wrapper">
</div>
</template>
<script>
import axios from 'axios';
import WidgetMixin from '@/mixins/WidgetMixin';
import { widgetApiEndpoints } from '@/utils/defaults';
export default {
mixins: [WidgetMixin],
data() {
return {};
},
computed: {},
methods: {
fetchData() {
// TODO: Make Data Request
},
},
};
</script>
<style scoped lang="scss">
</style>
```
All widgets extend from the [Widget](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/mixins/WidgetMixin.js) mixin. This provides some basic functionality that is shared by all widgets. The mixin includes the following `options`, `startLoading()`, `finishLoading()`, `error()` and `update()`.
- **Getting user options: `options`**
- Any user-specific config can be accessed with `this.options.something` (where something is the data key your accessing)
- **Loading state: `startLoading()` and `finishLoading()`**
- You can show the loader with `this.startLoading()`, then when your data request completes, hide it again with `this.finishLoading()`
- **Error handling: `error()`**
- If something goes wrong (such as API error, or missing user parameters), then call `this.error()` to show message to user
- **Updating data: `update()`**
- When the user clicks the update button, or if continuous updates are enabled, then the `update()` method within your widget will be called
### Step 2 - Adding Functionality
**Accessing User Options**
If your widget is going to accept any parameters from the user, then we can access these with `this.options.[parmName]`. It's best to put these as computed properties, which will enable us to check it exists, is valid, and if needed format it. For example, if we have an optional property called `count` (to determine number of results), we can do the following, and then reference it within our component with `this.count`
```javascript
computed: {
count() {
if (!this.options.count) {
return 5;
}
return this.options.count;
},
...
},
```
**Adding an API Endpoint**
If your widget makes a data request, then add the URL for the API under point to the `widgetApiEndpoints` array in [`defaults.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/defaults.js#L207)
```javascript
widgetApiEndpoints: {
...
exampleEndpoint: 'https://hub.dummyapis.com/ImagesList',
},
```
Then in your widget file:
```javascript
import { widgetApiEndpoints } from '@/utils/defaults';
```
For GET requests, you may need to add some parameters onto the end of the URL. We can use another computed property for this, for example:
```javascript
endpoint() {
return `${widgetApiEndpoints.exampleEndpoint}?count=${this.count}`;
},
```
**Making an API Request**
Axios is used for making data requests, so import it into your component: `import axios from 'axios';`
Under the `methods` block, we'll create a function called `fetchData`, here we can use Axios to make a call to our endpoint.
```javascript
fetchData() {
axios.get(this.endpoint)
.then((response) => {
this.processData(response.data);
})
.catch((dataFetchError) => {
this.error('Unable to fetch data', dataFetchError);
})
.finally(() => {
this.finishLoading();
});
},
```
There are three things happening here:
- If the response completes successfully, we'll pass the results to another function that will handle them
- If there's an error, then we call `this.error()`, which will show a message to the user
- Whatever the result, once the request has completed, we call `this.finishLoading()`, which will hide the loader
**Processing Response**
In the above example, we call the `processData()` method with the result from the API, so we need to create that under the `methods` section. How you handle this data will vary depending on what's returned by the API, and what you want to render to the user. But however you do it, you will likely need to create a data variable to store the response, so that it can be easily displayed in the HTML.
```javascript
data() {
return {
myResults: null,
};
},
```
And then, inside your `processData()` method, you can set the value of this, with:
```javascript
`this.myResults = 'whatever'`
```
**Rendering Response**
Now that the results are in the correct format, and stored as data variables, we can use them within the `<template>` to render results to the user. Again, how you do this will depend on the structure of your data, and what you want to display, but at it's simplest, it might look something like this:
```vue
<p class="results">{{ myResults }}</p>
```
**Styling**
Styles can be written your your widget within the `<style>` block.
There are several color variables used by widgets, which extend from the base pallete. Using these enables users to override colors to theme their dashboard, if they wish. The variables are: `--widget-text-color`, `--widget-background-color` and `--widget-accent-color`
```vue
<style scoped lang="scss">
p.results {
color: var(--widget-text-color);
}
</style>
```
For examples of finished widget components, see the [Widgets](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/tree/master/src/components/Widgets) directory. Specifically, the [`XkcdComic.vue`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/components/Widgets/XkcdComic.vue) widget is quite minimal, so would make a good example, as will [this example implementation](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/commit/3da76ce2999f57f76a97454c0276301e39957b8e).
### Step 3 - Register
Next, import and register your new widget, in [`WidgetBase.vue`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/components/Widgets/WidgetBase.vue). In this file, you'll need to add the following:
Import your widget file
```javascript
import ExampleWidget from '@/components/Widgets/ExampleWidget.vue';
```
Then register the component
```javascript
components: {
...
ExampleWidget,
},
```
Finally, add the markup to render it. The only attribute you need to change here is, setting `widgetType === 'example'` to your widget's name.
```vue
<ExampleWidget
v-else-if="widgetType === 'example'"
:options="widgetOptions"
@loading="setLoaderState"
@error="handleError"
:ref="widgetRef"
/>
```
### Step 4 - Docs
Finally, add some documentation for your widget in the [Widget Docs](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/docs/widgets.md), so that others know hoe to use it. Include the following information: Title, short description, screenshot, config options and some example YAML.
**Summary**: For a complete example of everything discussed here, see: [`3da76ce`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/commit/3da76ce2999f57f76a97454c0276301e39957b8e)

Since different websites host their favicons at different paths, for the best results Dashy can use an API to resolve a websites icon. Since different websites host their favicons at different paths, for the best results Dashy can use an API to resolve a websites icon.
The default favicon API is [allesedv.com](https://favicon.allesedv.com/), but you can change this under `appConfig.faviconApi`. If you'd prefer not to use an API, just set this value to `local`. You can also use different APIs for individual items, by setting `icon: favicon-[api]`, e.g. `favicon-clearbit`.

If for a given service none of the APIs work in your situation, and nor does local, then the best option is to find the path of the services logo or favicon, and set the icon to the URL of the raw image. For example, `icon: https://monitoring.local/faviconx128.png`- you can find this path using the browser dev tools.

## Font Awesome
You can use any [Font Awesome Icon](https://fontawesome.com/icons) simply by specifying it's identifier. This is in the format of `[category] [name]` and can be found on the page for that icon on the Font Awesome site. For example: `fas fa-rocket`, `fab fa-monero` or `fas fa-unicorn`. ## Font Awesome

## Generative Icons
To uses a unique and programmatically generated icon for a given service just set `icon: generative`. This is particularly useful when you have a lot of similar services with a different IP or port, and no specific icon. These icons are generated with [DiceBear](https://avatars.dicebear.com/) (or [Evatar](https://evatar.io/) for fallback), and use a hash of the services domain/ ip for entropy, so each domain will have a unique icon. ## Generative Icons

## Emoji Icons
You can use almost any emoji as an icon for items or sections. You can specify the emoji either by pasting it directly, using it's unicode ( e.g. `'U+1F680'`) or shortcode (e.g. `':rocket:'`). You can find these codes for any emoji using [Emojipedia](https://emojipedia.org/) (near the bottom of emoji each page), or for a quick reference to emoji shortcodes, check out [emojis.ninja](https://emojis.ninja/) by @nomanoff. ## Emoji Icons

The [dashboard-icons](https://github.com/WalkxCode/dashboard-icons) repo by [@WalkxCode](https://github.com/WalkxCode) provides a comprehensive collection of 360+ high-quality PNG icons for commonly self-hosted services. Dashy natively supports these icons, and you can use them just by specifying the icon name (without extension) preceded by `hl-`. See [here](https://github.com/WalkxCode/dashboard-icons/tree/master/png) for a full list of all available icons. Note that these are fetched and cached strait from GitHub, so if you require offline access, the [Local Icons](#local-icons) method may be a better option for you.

## Icons by URL
You can also set an icon by passing in a valid URL pointing to the icons location. For example `icon: https://i.ibb.co/710B3Yc/space-invader-x256.png`, this can be in .png, .jpg or .svg format, and hosted anywhere (local or remote) - so long as it's accessible from where you are hosting Dashy. The icon will be automatically scaled to fit, however loading in a lot of large icons may have a negative impact on performance, especially if you visit Dashy from new devices often. ## Icons by URL

## Local Icons
You may also want to store your icons locally, bundled within Dashy so that there is no reliance on outside services. This can be done by putting the icons within Dashy's `./public/item-icons/` directory. If you are using Docker, then the easiest option is to map a volume from your host system, for example: `-v /local/image/directory:/app/public/item-icons/`. To reference an icon stored locally, just specify it's name and extension. For example, if my icon was stored in `/app/public/item-icons/maltrail.png`, then I would just set `icon: maltrail.png`. ## Local Icons

If you are using icons from an external source, these will be fetched on initial page load automatically, if and when needed. But combining icons from multiple services may have a negative impact on performance.
