const Map/List of all IconData

[jlnrrg]

As it looks to me the package is auto generated based on the MDI font.
(Or that is how i've done it with the simple icons package)

Please consider adding a static list, where one can get all the icons at one.
Example:

static const List<IconData> all = [
    MdiIcons.abTesting,
  ];

Every user of the library could implement this themself, but with so many icons this would take a lot of time.
Under the premise that the mdi.dart is autogenerated, this might be just one line of code for you 🙏 .

Example Use Case:
There is the icon_picker which takes a Map<String, IconData> of icons. For performance improvements an already existing const List or Map of IconData might be beneficial.

Hi @jlnrrg, you can get icons name using getIconsName() to create your picker (but maybe a real list is better for you).
Let me know if you need an example.

You can get icon list in https://github.com/ziofat/material_design_icons_flutter/blob/master/lib/icon_map.dart, though it is not satisfied to Map<String, IconData> but I believe it is really easy to transform.

thanks for the advice. Of cause it is really easy to transform. I was speaking more from the performance sie of things (even though i have no measure how much the const would effect)

@ziofat, @jlnrrg I think this issue can be closed as iconMap is a const now.
