SVGO config file - node.js

Question

With svgo 1.3.2 I used to run this command :
svgo --pretty --disable={removeUnusedNS,removeUselessDefs,removeUselessStrokeAndFill} file.svg -o file.min.svg
I updated to svgo 2.3.0 and now I get :
error: unknown option '--disable={removeUnusedNS,removeUselessDefs,removeUselessStrokeAndFill}'
So I tried to create a svgo.config.js like this :
const { extendDefaultPlugins } = require('svgo');
module.exports = {
plugins: extendDefaultPlugins([
{
name: 'removeUnusedNS',
active: false
},
{
name: 'removeUselessDefs',
active: false
},
{
name: 'removeUselessStrokeAndFill',
active: false
}
])
}
but I just get the error :
Error: Cannot find module 'svgo'

svgo is install (globaly)
How can I run svgo with those 3 plugins disabled using to config file (or not) ?
Thanks !

Answer 1

What is the output when you run svgo -v?
It is possible that you are inside a project that has an older version as a dependency which takes precedence over the global svgo package.
You can try require using the absolute path to svgo 2.3.0.
For instance mine was like that require('/home/nili/.nvm/versions/node/v14.16.1/lib/node_modules/svgo');
I think it could also be in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/svgo if you installed it as root.
