Creating Icons for Fleet-maintained Apps

App icons for the Fleet server and fleetdm.com software catalog can be generated using the following script on macOS using an associated .app bundle.

Usage

bash tools/software/icons/generate-icons.sh -s slug-name [-a /path/to/App.app | -i /path/to/icon.png]
  • -s: Slug name for the Fleet-maintained app (required). The portion before the slash will be used in the output filenames.
  • -a: Path to the .app bundle (e.g. /Applications/Safari.app). Required if -i is not provided.
  • -i: Path to a PNG icon file. Required if -a is not provided. The icon will be resized to 128x128 if larger.

Examples

Using an app bundle:

bash tools/software/icons/generate-icons.sh -a /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app -s "google-chrome/darwin"

Using a PNG file directly:

bash tools/software/icons/generate-icons.sh -i /path/to/icon.png -s "company-portal/windows"

This will generate two files:

  • frontend/pages/SoftwarePage/components/icons/GoogleChrome.tsx the SVG React component
  • website/assets/images/app-icon-google-chrome-60x60@2x.png the 128x128 PNG used on the website

Notes

  • The SVG generated is embedded with a base64-encoded 32×32 version of the app's 128×128 PNG icon.
  • The TSX component name is derived from the app's name (e.g. Google Chrome.appGoogleChrome.tsx).
  • The script ensures consistent formatting and naming conventions across icon components.
  • The script automatically adds the import statement and map entry to frontend/pages/SoftwarePage/components/icons/index.ts, so you don't need to manually update the index file. The app name used in the map is extracted from the app's Info.plist (CFBundleName or CFBundleDisplayName).
