fontawesome_svg_ruby

Embed fontawesome icons as SVGs directly in your views.

Font Awesome is awesome! But most projects only use a handful of icons. Instead of loading the icons using a web font, use SVGs. By using embedded SVGs you save bandwidth, increase your page speed and prevent FOUC (flash of unstyled content). This gem makes embedding font awesome icons easy for Rails and Middleman projects.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'fontawesome_svg', git: "https://github.com/cowholio4/fontawesome_svg_ruby.git"

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Add this line to your application.css file

//= require fa-svg

Usage

To embed an icon in Rails or Middleman you can use the included view helpers.

= fa_inline_svg('brands', 'facebook')
= fa_inline_svg('solid', 'question')
= fa_inline_svg('solid', 'question', class: 'fa-4x')
