Helper class to create FontAwesome icons with a predefined markup.
Download through composer:
composer require digbang/font-awesome
Add the service provider and facade to your config/app.php:
'providers' => [
// ...
Digbang\FontAwesome\FontAwesomeServiceProvider::class,
],
'aliases' => [
// ...
'FontAwesome' => Digbang\FontAwesome\Facade::class,
],FontAwesome::icon('icon', 'extra-class') // <i class="fa fa-icon extra-class"></i>
// or...
FontAwesome::icon('icon', ['class' => 'extra-class']) // <i class="fa fa-icon extra-class"></i>fa('icon', 'extra-class') // <i class="fa fa-icon extra-class"></i>
// or...
fa('icon', ['class' => 'extra-class']) // <i class="fa fa-icon extra-class"></i>You can also add any other attributes to the html. Doing...
fa('times', ['title' => 'Delete this!']) // <i class="fa fa-times" title="Delete this!"></i>You can change the tag used by the library. Doing...
FontAwesome::setTag('span');
fa('edit'); // <span class="fa fa-edit"></span>Non-Laravel projects can still use this, but the Facade and helper function won't be available.
$fa = new Digbang\FontAwesome\FontAwesome;
$fa->setTag('span');
$fa->icon('times', 'text-danger'); // <span class="fa fa-times text-danger"></span>
