Prawn::Icon provides a simple mechanism for rendering icons and icon fonts from within [Prawn](https://github.com/prawnpdf/prawn).
The following icon fonts ship with Prawn::Icon:
* FontAwesome (http://fontawesome.io/icons/)
* Foundation Icons (http://zurb.com/playground/foundation-icon-fonts-3)
* GitHub Octicons (https://octicons.github.com)
Prawn::Icon was originally written by Jesse Doyle.
## Installation
Prawn::Icon is distributed via RubyGems. You can install it with the following command:
```bash
gem install prawn-icon
```
## Usage
Prawn::Icon was designed to have an API familiar to Prawn. A single icon may be rendered as such:
```ruby
require 'prawn/icon'
Prawn::Document.generate('icons.pdf') do |pdf|
pdf.icon 'fa-beer', size: 60
end
```
produces:
![FontAwesome Beer](https://raw.github.com/jessedoyle/prawn-icon/master/examples/fa-beer.png)
## Inline Icons
You can also provide the `inline_format: true` option to Prawn::Icon:
```ruby
require 'prawn/icon'
Prawn::Document.generate('inline_icons.pdf') do |pdf|
pdf.icon 'Enjoy: fa-beer', inline_format: true
end
```
produces:
![FontAwesome Beer Inline](https://raw.github.com/jessedoyle/prawn-icon/master/examples/fa-beer-inline.png)
When using `inline_format: true`, you may supply `` tags with `color` and `size` attributes.
## Use with [Prawn::Table](https://github.com/prawnpdf/prawn-table)
A `table_icon` method may be called when creating a table's data array to render icons within a table cell:
```ruby
require 'prawn/icon'
require 'prawn/table'
Prawn::Document.generate('table_icons.pdf') do |pdf|
data = [
# Explicit brackets must be used here
[pdf.table_icon('fa-birthday-cake'), 'Cake'],
['is', 'Great!']
]
pdf.table(data) # => (2 x 2 table)
end
```
Note that the `table_icon` method does not support the `inline_format: true` option.
## Specifying Icon Families
Prawn::Icon uses the prefix of an icon key to determine which font family is used to render a particular icon.
Currently supported prefixes include:
* `fa` - Fontawesome (eg. `fa-arrows`)
* `fi` - Foundation Icons (eg. `fi-compass`)
* `octicon` - Github Octicons (eg. `octicon-calendar`)
## How It Works
Prawn::Icon uses a "legend" to map icon keys to unicode characters that respresent a particular icon within the font file.
This legend is a standard `.yml` file located within the font's directory.
If you wish to fork this repository and add a new font, you'll likely need to supply a corresponding legend file. Please see the current legend files within the `fonts` directory for examples.
## Examples
A Rake task is included to generate documents that display each icon and it's corresponding icon key.
The command:
```bash
rake legend
```
should generate these files when run from Prawn::Icon's gem directory.
## Contributing
I'll gladly accept pull requests that are well tested for any bug found in Prawn::Icon.
If there is enough demand for including a particular icon font, I will also accept a pull request to include it in Prawn::Icon.
