README

Helper class to create FontAwesome icons with a predefined markup. Bassed on Digbang\FontAwesome

This package allows you to create a facade in your laravel application. But if you want, you can use this package without laravel

Usage

Basic usage

$fa = new FontAwesome();
$fa->icon('icon', ['class' => 'extra-class'])

Basic usage Laravel 5.*

FontAwesome::icon('icon', ['class' => 'extra-class'])

Would result in...

<i class="fa fa-icon extra-class"></i>

HTML Attributes

You can also add any other attributes to the html. Doing...

$fa->icon('times', ['title' => 'Delete this!'])

would result in...

<i class="fa fa-times" title="Delete this!"></i>

Changing the tag

You can change the tag used by the library. Doing...

$fa->setTag('span');
$fa->icon('edit');

would result in...

<span class="fa fa-edit"></span>

Laravel

Add the service provider and facade to your config/app.php file:

'providers' => array(
	...
	'LucasRuroken\FontAwesome\FontAwesomeServiceProvider',
	...
);

And add the class alias, so you can call it like \FontAwesome::icon

'aliases' => array(
	...
	'FontAwesome' => 'LucasRuroken\FontAwesome\Facade',
	...
);
