Won't build with Swift 3.0

Hi, I have small problem. After installation FontAwesome by using CocoaPoads I have seen question marks in rectangle instead of icon. I don't know why ... ?

@thii, any ideas if it's possible to use the spinners?

no such moudle ! try many times

With this code I get "could not find member .MapMarker"
UIImage.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.MapMarker, textColor: UIColor.grayColor(), size: 20)

With this code I get "cannot invoke 'fontAwesomeIconWithName' with and argument list of type '(FontAwesome,UIColor,Int)'
UIImage.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.MapMarker as FontAwesome, textColor: UIColor.grayColor(), size: 20)

However I have no problem using
String.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.MapMarker)

Is this just me or is this a bug?

Hello,
when it is expected to have support for iOS 9 / xcode 7 and Swift 2?
Thanks for the great library!

Is there any way to use this from storyboard directly?

I think this found be a helpful function.

Is there any plans to update this for Swift 2.0? I get errors when trying to compile in Xcode 7

Is there anyway to get this to work with OS X?

The API v0.3.0 does not compile with Xcode Version 6.3.2 (6D2105).

For fixing that, you should release as quick as possible the pod version 0.3.1 including these two commits below:

4972f69

7ba3a83

Note: thank you for keeping me updated of this future release.

Thank you in advance.

Is watchOS support something that is on your roadmap? If not, would you accept a pull request?

how to add font awesome icons in buttons of toolbar and navigation bar ?

I'm trying to set the disclosure indicator on a tableview to the FontAwesome CaretRight icon, which would be perfect for my app. Unfortunately I can't seem to do that because the .accessoryView property of the table cell must be of type UIView.

It would be great if this was an option in this pod. Thanks for considering it.

Since the repo's name includes .swift, certain run scripts can confuse this with a swift file and cause errors. Is it possible to change the name to something like FontAwesomeSwift or FontAwsome_swift to eliminate these errors?

Hello,

I follow the installation guide:

1. Add pod 'FontAwesome.swift' and run 'pod install'
2. Add 'import FontAwesome' to the controller file

After that I did import FontAwesome in my viewcontroller, then Xcode gave me No such module 'FontAwesome' error message. Please help me :)

p.s. I use Xcode 6.3.2

In my pod file I have
pod 'FontAwesome.swift', :git => 'https://github.com/thii/FontAwesome.swift.git', :branch => 'swift-3.0'

I'm getting the following two errors when trying to build in func setupViews

1. Center has been renamed to center

in layoutSubViews

2. CGRectMake in unavailable in Swift

I have a problem with your library.
This is the Xcode's console:

dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libswiftSecurity.dylib
Referenced from: /private/var/mobile/Containers/Bundle/Application/524AE979-D123-455E-83CC-DB96E01BC348/FoodApp.app/Frameworks/FontAwesome_swift.framework/FontAwesome_swift
Reason: image not found

When using it with Auto Layout Constraints, the label font is set before it did layout.

Hi,

I made some icon font by http://fontastic.me/
Is it possible to use it with FontAwesome?

thanks

hi
when i ruling program app crash
in line fontURL = bundle.URLForResource(name, withExtension: "otf", subdirectory: "FontAwesome.swift.bundle")!
error : fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value

can you help me ?

I have a UILabel in a Storyboard.
I set the font to FontAwesome in the storyboard.
When running the app, I set the text using String.fontAwesomeIconWithName, but I only see a squared ? [?]
However, if before that anywhere in the app I call UIFont.fontAwesomeOfSize (probably because it calls the FontLoader) then it work as expected.

Is there anyway to get this to work without calling UIFont.fontAwesomeOfSize explicitly?

Is it possible to use a label with text and a fontawesome icon in it? Or can a label only have a single font?

The "dispatch_once" call inside of "fontAwesomeIconWithName()" is not effective. The icons table is setup every time the function is called because the 'token' var itself is not static, which can result in poor performance if used frequently.

public extension String {
  public static func fontAwesomeIconWithName(name: String) -> String {
    var icons: [String: String]?
    var token: dispatch_once_t = 0    //  This is reset to 0 on every call, so 'dispatch_once' does nothing

    dispatch_once(&token) {
      icons = [
        "fa-adjust": "\u{f042}",...

If you debug this code (xcode debugger or just print), you will see that "token" is always 0 when the function is invoked. When using this function a lot, the performance was degraded surprisingly.

If you move the token / dictionary out to static symbols, the performance improves to expected levels.

I'm using vaadin icons in my java project.
https://vaadin.com/font-icons

Also many other free fonts exist:
http://speckyboy.com/2014/05/14/more-free-icon-fonts/

It should be nice to have some generic solution for font icons in swift.
Share common methods. Easy add new font. etc

Have you any idea how to do it?

For some reason my php sends me article icons got from fontawesome.io lists
f0f6 (this is plain string, not Unicode character)

to convert it to \u{f0f6}" (singleUnicode character) I have to do:

let t="f0f6" //got this icon from server
let c=Int(strtoul(t, nil, 16))
let ch=Character(UnicodeScalar(c))
var s=""
s.append(ch)
iconLabel.text = s

I think we need func doing this, a kind of String.fontAwesomeIconWithUnicode

I added the FontAswome in swift using cocoa pods.
In file FontAwsome.swift on line no 29
let fontURL = bundle.URLForResource(name, withExtension: "otf")
fontURL is always nil, thats why application is crashing.

Thanks for this great library.

But How do you use icons like fa-angle-up?

I tried button.setTitle(String.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.fa-angle-up), forState: .Normal) but failed

I implemented a view that can be used directly in the storyboard and set which icon to use.

Let me know if you'd like me to submit a PullRequest.

Hi, I'm experience some problems where I see 3 dots as ". . ." instead of the actual icon. Any suggestion on where might be the problem?

Hi there

I've written an extension that accepts Fontawesome css codes eg "fa-circle", as follows:

let icon = String.fontAwesomeIconWithCode("fa-circle")

Let me know if you'd like me to submit a PR.

Hello,

I just finished my pod install of FontAwesome.swift with the exact podfile code you provided. My project is entirely empty. When I wrote "import FontAwesome" or "import FontAwesome_swift" into my ViewController.swift, I got this error.

How can I fix this?

I try use your lib with carthage :), unfortunately the awesome texts always wrong
my codes
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title: String.fontAwesomeIconWithName( FontAwesome.PlusSquare), style: .Plain, target: self, action: "createNote")
self.title = String.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.Github)

Please give me an advise to solve this.

Thanks,

It would be nice if this package could be installed via Carthage. I don't like copy&pasting source code into my projects...

Keep up the good work!

Hi, since I updated to cocopods 1.0.0
I receive this crash

Please advice

this is my podfile

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!

target 'MyApp' do
pod 'ECSlidingViewController', '> 2.0.3'
pod 'AFNetworking', '> 2.5'
pod 'PNChart', '~> 0.7.1'
pod 'FontAwesome.swift'
end

I have tried this framework to work with UIButton but I haven't been able to find a way around it to make it work.. Not sure if it supports UIButton yet but if it does it might be great to have an example in the readme file.

Thanks in advance!

If you press Edit-> Emoji & Symbols you get a list of special characters accessible in the Storyboard. How can I add the FontAwesome Icons there?

i have v0.6 and import FontAwesome_swift or import FontAwesome

When i use this lib for show icon:
self.title = String.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.Android)
i have the next result:

Any idea?

When you use the UIImage extension to draw an image from a font icon, it clips the image for all the icons that are wider than tall. I think the bug is here:

https://github.com/thii/FontAwesome.swift/blob/master/FontAwesome/FontAwesome.swift#L81

The max call should instead be a min when determining the font size.

For example the icon fa-newspaper-o when used with a font size of 30px actually generates an image that is 34px wide.

Hi!
How to fix this code to instead of the text was an icon?

@IBAction func btnApple(sender: UIButton) {
        sender.enabled = false
        sender.titleLabel?.font = UIFont.fontAwesomeOfSize(20)
        sender.titleLabel?.textColor = UIColor.blackColor()
        sender.setTitle(String.fontAwesomeIconWithName(.Apple), forState: .Normal)
}

Thank you)

I am seeing two errors in Swift 2.0:

FontAwesome.swift
line 39: as should be as!
line 659: advance should be advancedBy

Carthage says:

Dependency "FontAwesome.swift" has no shared framework schemes for any of the platforms: Mac

If you believe this to be an error, please file an issue with the maintainers at https://github.com/thii/FontAwesome.swift/issues/new

Looking at a bit of the source, it looks like it uses UIKit, but perhaps it is worth having this work on Mac as well. Thoughts?

During build (debug) I receive such errors:

egrep: .../Pods/FontAwesome.swift: Is a directory
egrep: .../Pods/Target Support Files/FontAwesome.swift: Is a directory

Command /bin/sh emitted errors but did not return a nonzero exit code to indicate failure

In fact, project name generates it. What can we do with it not to have this error?

Xcode 7.3.1
FontAwesome.swift (0.7.3)

hi, I have a problem, when I run the app, the compiler get an error in this line of fontAwesome.swift : "let data = NSData(contentsOfURL: fontURL!)!"

i think this error happen for link of font and class, isn't it?

The import FontAwesome command is invalid.

It should read import FontAwesome_swift

I have a line in each of my view controllers to set the tab bar image. This is fine, but only works once you've clicked the tab. Is there anyway to load the images with the tab bar controller so they are loaded on the tab bar controller load?
