Angular 2+ Component Library - Packaging Assets

I created a component library based on Angular 4. I was also able to successfully use this library in another Angular project. However, one of the components uses SVG, which is in the /assets

library folder . This applies to the component as follows:

<img src="/assets/svg/icon_recommendation_close.svg"/>

      

        
        
        
      

    

Obviously, when this component is used in the main application, the image is viewed in the / assets folder of the main application, which is not available, resulting in HTTP 404.

Now my questions are:

• What are the options available to me for packaging images and other similar assets?
• How can they be accessed by the main application?
• Is it possible to configure the main application to view /nodes_module
  
  the library folder if I can package the SVG into it?
• Another option I was thinking about is embedding SVG in HTML itself using a utility gulp
  
  . Can this be done?
