Icon library from @fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core (referred as global icon library) is deprecated in favour of FaIconLibrary provided by @fortawesome/angular-fontawesome and managed by Angular (referred as icon library).
The library will emit a warning when icon definition from a global icon library is used, so to migrate you'll need to replace all usages of the global icon library.
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
-import { FontAwesomeModule } from '@fortawesome/angular-fontawesome';
-import { library } from '@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core';
+import { FontAwesomeModule, FaIconLibrary } from '@fortawesome/angular-fontawesome';
import { faCoffee, fas } from '@fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
@NgModule({
declarations: [AppComponent],
imports: [BrowserModule, FontAwesomeModule],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {
- constructor() {
+ constructor(library: FaIconLibrary) {
- library.add(fas, faCoffee);
+ library.addIconPacks(fas);
+ library.addIcons(faCoffee);
}
}You can also use FaConfig.globalLibrary property to change the warning into the hard error or suppress warnings altogether (not recommended).
Note 1: @fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core package is still used internally by the components, so you should not remove it from the dependencies and should use version 1.2.21 or newer as it is required by the peer dependency of @fortawesome/angular-fontawesome package.
Note 2: FaIconLibrary is only used by components provided by angular-fontawesome and won't work for dom.watch(). To make it work you'll need to register icons in both libraries. We actually don't recommend using angular-fontawesome together with dom.watch() and thinking to deprecated it. If you currently utilize it, please, drop by into #171 and share your use case.
FaIconComponent.icon property used to have type Icon (rendered icon object), which was changed to IconProp as it is now an input property to specify the icon definition. No replacement is provided.
If you were working with FaIconComponent programmatically you should switch from setting FaIconComponent.iconProp to FaIconComponent.icon as former is deprecated.
The input was not working and we don't want to support this pattern in angular-fontawesome.
You can use fixedWidth=true and custom CSS to achieve similar behavior:
ul {
list-style-type: none;
padding-left: 20px;
}
