DCA

[](#dca)

Use the `fontawesomeIconPicker` input type to add the Font Awesome Icon Picker form widget to your tl\_content table.

```
$GLOBALS['TL_DCA']['tl_content']['fields']['serviceLinkFaIcon'] = [
    'exclude'   => true,
    'search'    => true,
    'inputType' => 'fontawesomeIconPicker',
    'eval'      => ['doNotShow' => true],
    'sql'       => 'blob NULL',
];
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Out of the box, the bundle uses the free version of [Font Awesome](https://fontawesome.com/icons) and does not require any configuration. But you can also use the Pro version by changing the configuration in your `config/config.yaml` file.

```
markocupic_fontawesome_icon_picker:
  # Use your custom Font Awesome (Pro) version here:
  fontawesome_source_path: 'files/fontawesome-pro/js/all.min.js' # You can even use the url to your kit 'https://kit.fontawesome.com/12345sdf65.js
  # Set the version of Font Awesome you want to use.
  fontawesome_version: '7.0.1'
  # Set the allowed styles
  fontawesome_allowed_styles:
    - fa-solid
    - fa-regular
    - fa-light
    - fa-brands
    - fa-duotone
    - fa-thin
  # Add the path to your custom fontawesome icons meta file.
  fontawesome_meta_file_path: 'files/fontawesome-pro/metadata/icons.yml'
```

Frontend usage
--------------

[](#frontend-usage)

This extension will not add Font Awesome to your frontend. You have to add it yourself in your layout.
