FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Using Composer is the recommended way to install this extension.

To update the extension delete the FontAwesome folder completely and re-install.

Activation

Add the following line to your LocalSettings.php:

Configuration

There are two render modes available for FontAwesome icons:

Web Fonts with CSS: This implementation uses web fonts as the file format and relies on the browser to render icons as it would any custom font.
SVG with JavaScript: This implementation encodes icon data and the mechanism to display them in the browser in JavaScript code that the browser executes.

The render mode can be selected by setting the variable $wgFaRenderMode in LocalSettings.php. Allowed values are: webfonts (default) and javascript.

Example: $wgFaRenderMode = 'javascript';

For a discussion of the advantages and drawbacks of the render modes see Performance & Font Awesome on fontawesome.com.

Usage

This extension defines three parser functions:

{{#far:...}} to insert an icon from the FontAwesome Regular font
{{#fas:...}} to insert an icon from the FontAwesome Solid font
{{#fab:...}} to insert an icon from the FontAwesome Brands font

Example: {{#fab:wikipedia-w}} will insert the Wikipedia-W

For valid icon names see https://fontawesome.com/v6/search.
