* run ``python manage.py migrate djangocms_icon``
**A note about django CMS Text CKEditor**
There are additional steps required for the icon plugin to display correctly
inside CKEditor.
1. You need to make sure your icon CSS is passed via CKEditors ``contentsCss``
`parameter <https://github.com/divio/djangocms-text-ckeditor/blob/175a1a444de8ca1ba4742196cb83150d45b5c505/aldryn_config.py#L36>`_.
On Divio Cloud this can be done through the Addons configuration.
2. CKEditor automatically removes empty tags, you can prevent this by adding
a `javascript configuration file <https://github.com/divio/djangocms-boilerplate-webpack/blob/master/static/js/addons/ckeditor.wysiwyg.js#L68>`_
to ``style_set``.
Configuration
-------------
This addon provides a ``default`` template for all instances. You can provide
additional template choices by adding a ``DJANGOCMS_ICON_TEMPLATES``
setting::
DJANGOCMS_ICON_TEMPLATES = [
('svg', 'SVG template'),
]
Web Font Icons
##############
The django CMS Icon plugin ships with **Font Awesome 4 as default**. This can
be changed by overriding the following setting::
DJANGOCMS_ICON_SETS = [
('fontawesome4', 'fa', 'Font Awesome 4'),
]
To use Font Awesome 5 in the above example; see the options below form the
``DJANGOCMS_ICON_SETS`` listed.
In addition **you need to load** the resources for your fonts in
``/admin/djangocms_icon/includes/assets.html``. Add this file to your project
in order for the icon picker to pick up your custom icons in the admin.
The icon picker supports `numerous font libraries <http://victor-valencia.github.io/bootstrap-iconpicker/>`_
out of the box. You can also add multiple font sets like this::
DJANGOCMS_ICON_SETS = [
('elusiveicon', 'el', 'Elusive Icons'),
('flagicon', 'flag-icon', 'Flag Icons'),
('fontawesome4', 'fa', 'Font Awesome 4'),
('fontawesome5regular', 'far', 'Font Awesome 5 Regular'),
('fontawesome5solid', 'fas', 'Font Awesome 5 Solid'),
('fontawesome5brands', 'fab', 'Font Awesome 5 Brands'),
('fontawesome5light', 'fal', 'Font Awesome 5 Light', '5.3.1_pro'),
('glyphicon', 'glyphicon', 'Glyphicons'),
('ionicon', 'ion', 'Ionicons Icons'),
('mapicon', 'map-icon', 'Map Icons'),
('materialdesign', 'zmdi', 'Material Design'),
('octicon', 'octicon', 'Octicons'),
('typicon', 'typcn', 'Typicons'),
('weathericon', 'wi', 'Weather Icons'),
]
You can also add the version number as a fourth parameter.
If no parameter is given the latest version of the bootstrap-iconpicker icon set is used.::
DJANGOCMS_ICON_SETS = [
('fontawesome4', 'fa', 'Font Awesome 4', '4.0.0'),
('fontawesome5light', 'fal', 'Font Awesome 5 Light', '5.3.1_pro'),
]
Just don't forget to include both libraries in the ``assets.html`` file.
This is only necessary for the plugin rendering while selecting the icon.
You still need to implement the font libraries into your frontend stack.
Custom Web Font Icons
#####################
You can also add your own custom web fonts, for this you need to tell the
icon picker where to find the necessary files::
DJANGOCMS_ICON_SETS = [
(ICONSET, 'icon', 'Custom web font'),
]
In this example, we add our own font icon set on top of it. Please mind
that the second parameter needs to be the icon prefix. ``ICONSET`` is an
external reference to a JSON file at the root of your project setting up
your custom font icons, add this before::
with open('iconset.json') as fh:
ICONSET = fh.read()
Here an example of its content::
{
"iconClass": "icon",
"icons": [
"icon-icon1",
"icon-icon2",
"..."
]
}
The ``iconClass`` refers to the second parameter in the settings file for the
icon prefix. Make sure both of them are the same. Instead of using an external
file you can also write the settings directly to the ``DJANGOCMS_ICON_SETS``
setting.
`djangocms-boilerplate-webpack <https://github.com/divio/djangocms-boilerplate-webpack/blob/master/tools/tasks/icons/json.js>`_
can generate the ``iconset.json`` automatically for you through ``gulp icons``.
Make sure the icons names contain the iconset prefix as shown in the example,
the widget will determine the iconset based on that. They can be omitted if only
one iconset is used.
Don't forget to also add your custom fonts to
``/admin/djangocms_icon/includes/assets.html`` into your project.
SVG Icons
#########
django CMS Icon also supports SVG icons. Follow the instructions from
`Custom Web Font Icons`_ and then adapt the JSON file a bit::
{
"svg": true,
"spritePath": "sprites/icons.svg",
"iconClass": "icon",
"icons": [
"icon-icon1",
"icon-icon2",
"..."
]
}
``svg`` and ``spritePath`` are the only required additional properties. You
also need to add an icon template to your project to render it correctly,
for example::
<span class="{{ instance.icon }} {{ instance.attributes.class }}">
<svg role="presentation">
<use xlink:href="{% static 'sprites/icons.svg' %}#{{ instance.icon }}"></use>
</svg>
</span>
