I hope my late answer will still be useful for someone, because I don't like any of abovementioned options.

The react-svg-loader webpack loader allows you to import SVG icons like JSX components:

import Logo from './logo.svg';

class App extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      

          
      
    );
  }
}

and minimum config looks like this:

{
  test: /\.svg$/,
  use: [
    {
      loader: "babel-loader"
    },
    {
      loader: "react-svg-loader",
      options: {
        jsx: true // true outputs JSX tags
      }
    }
  ]
}

The best part is that it just outputs the svg file contents, without any extra wrappers and dangerouslySetInnerHTML in your code.
