Importing fontawesome (npm) into meteor package

help
1

FontAwesome NPM package (fontawesome) does not work when I import into a Meteor Package.

packkage.js

Npm.depends({
    "fontawesome": '4.7.0'
});

main.js
import {fontawesome} from 'fontawesome';

main.html
<i class='fa fa-bold'>text</i>

Thank you for your help.

I’ve got the same problem. :frowning:

There may be a better solutions to this, but a quick work around is to use the atmosphere package.

If I can’t find the solution it’s what I’ll eventually do. But I’d like to follow the recommendation of the package creator below. :slight_smile:

Please note that starting with Meteor 1.3, you should be using npm packages directly.

you could just add fontawesome css and place fonts in public directory, works for me

Thought about this topic and wanted to share this because I found this to be an awesome repo.

…they have converted all font awesome icons to black/white png/svg. Also might help with app sizing!
