fontawesome-iconpicker
======================

[](#fontawesome-iconpicker)

Font Awesome Icon Picker is a fully customizable plugin for Twitter Bootstrap, with a powerful base API, based on [bootstrap-popover-picker](https://itsjavi.com/bootstrap-popover-picker/)

You can use Font Awesome or another font icon set of your choice (icon list is totally customizable).

[](#instantiation)

You can call the plugin in several ways:

```
// Create instance if not exists (returns a jQuery object)
$('.my').iconpicker();
$('.my').iconpicker({ /*options*/ }); // you can also specify options via data-* attributes

// For the first matched element, access to a plugin property value
$('.my').data('iconpicker').iconpickerProperty;

// For the first matched element, call a plugin instance method with the given args
$('.my').data('iconpicker').iconpickerMethod('methodArg1', 'methodArg2' /* , other args */);

// Call and apply a plugin method to EACH matched element.
$.iconpicker.batch('.my', 'iconpickerMethod', 'methodArg1', 'methodArg2' /* , other args */); ->
```

Available options
-----------------

[](#available-options)

```
var defaults = {
    title: false, // Popover title (optional) only if specified in the template
    selected: false, // use this value as the current item and ignore the original
    defaultValue: false, // use this value as the current item if input or element value is empty
    placement: 'bottom', // (has some issues with auto and CSS). auto, top, bottom, left, right
    collision: 'none', // If true, the popover will be repositioned to another position when collapses with the window borders
    animation: true, // fade in/out on show/hide ?
    //hide iconpicker automatically when a value is picked. it is ignored if mustAccept is not false and the accept button is visible
    hideOnSelect: false,
    showFooter: false,
    searchInFooter: false, // If true, the search will be added to the footer instead of the title
    mustAccept: false, // only applicable when there's an iconpicker-btn-accept button in the popover footer
    selectedCustomClass: 'bg-primary', // Appends this class when to the selected item
    icons: [], // list of icon classes (declared at the bottom of this script for maintainability)
    fullClassFormatter: function(val) {
        return 'fa ' + val;
    },
    input: 'input,.iconpicker-input', // children input selector
    inputSearch: false, // use the input as a search box too?
    container: false, //  Appends the popover to a specific element. If not set, the selected element or element parent is used
    component: '.input-group-addon,.iconpicker-component', // children component jQuery selector or object, relative to the container element
    // Plugin templates:
    templates: {
        popover: '' +
            '',
        footer: '',
        buttons: 'Cancel' +
            ' Accept',
        search: '',
        iconpicker: '',
        iconpickerItem: '',
    }
};
```

TO-DO
-----

[](#to-do)

- Support other icon fonts
- Fix: input marked as error when it is empty
- Add role=button to each item, for making them tabbable
- Ability to use the user input as the filter instead of the popover input
- Fix bottomRight position when using component mode
- Better dropdown compatibility
- Ability to mix various class prefixes and use a customizable class formatter function
- Ability to select and copy the icon character (the would need to be hardcoded in js) (Use the chrome extension)
