Usage ----- [](#usage) Make sure you've loaded FontAwesome's CSS on your page! This package only providers little helpers to generate icons! You can use the Facade to generate icons from within your code: ``` FontAwesome::icon('arrow-up'); // Generates ``` It's also possible to add optional attributes for the icon: ``` FontAwesome::icon('arrow-up', ['class' => 'tiny', 'id' => 'MyFirstIcon']); // Generates ``` If you aren't using the Facade, this is the way to generate an icon: ``` use PendoNL\LaravelFontAwesome\LaravelFontAwesome; $fa = new LaravelFontAwesome(); $icon = $fa->icon('arrow-up', ['class' => 'tiny', 'id' => 'MyFirstIcon']); ``` And last, but not least, you there'a a blade directive to use inside your blade templates: ``` @fa('arrow-up'); @fa('arrow-up', ['class' => 'tiny', 'id' => 'MyFirstIcon']); ``` Using the Facade from within your templates work as well: ``` {!! FontAwesome::icon('building') !!} {!! FontAwesome::icon('building', ['id' => 'building-icon']) !}} ``` Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require pendonl/laravel-fontawesome ``` Next, you must install the service provider (For L5.5 and up Auto-Discovery is enabled): ``` // config/app.php 'providers' => [ ... PendoNL\LaravelFontAwesome\LaravelFontAwesomeServiceProvider::class, ]; ``` Optionally, register the facade: ``` // config/app.php 'aliases' => [ ... 'FontAwesome' => PendoNL\LaravelFontAwesome\Facade::class, ]; ``` Security -------- [](#security) If you discover any security related issues, please email instead of using the issue tracker. Credits ------- [](#credits) It was incredible helpfull to view various packages of Spatie to get to this final version. Aswel as `lucasruroken/laravel-font-awesome` which I spotted and was the main reason to start creating my first package ever. Thanks both for open sourcing your packages! I also tried to write down this first experience on my companies blog, comments appreciated! - [Spatie](https://github.com/spatie) - [LucasRuroken/laravel-font-awesome](https://github.com/lucasruroken/laravel-font-awesome) - [Blog about my first open-source experience](https://pendo.nl/blog/webdevelopment/fontawesome-for-laravel) About Pendo ----------- [](#about-pendo) Pendo is a webdevelopment agency based in Maastricht, Netherlands.
