## Sponsoring

If you find the library useful, please consider [sponsoring](https://github.com/sponsors/oblador). Things I have planned is to split up the repo into a monorepo, that would enable individual versioning of icon sets, better performance, smaller bundle and easier for the community to publish their own.

## Installation

1. Run: `$ npm install --save react-native-vector-icons`
2. For each platform (iOS/Android/Windows) you plan to use, follow one of the options for the corresponding platform.
3. If you intend to use FontAwesome 5, check out [`this guide`](FONTAWESOME5.md) to get you started.

### iOS

If you want to use any of the bundled icons, you need to add the icon fonts to your Xcode project. Just follow these steps:

- Browse to `node_modules/react-native-vector-icons` and drag the folder `Fonts` (or just the ones you want) to your project in Xcode. **Make sure your app is checked under "Add to targets" and that "Create groups" is checked if you add the whole folder**. Not familiar with Xcode? Try [this article](https://medium.com/@vimniky/how-to-use-vector-icons-in-your-react-native-project-8212ac6a8f06)
- Edit `Info.plist` and add a property called **Fonts provided by application** (or `UIAppFonts` if Xcode won't autocomplete/not using Xcode) and type in the files you just added. It will look something like this:

![XCode screenshot](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/378279/12421498/2db1f93a-be88-11e5-89c8-2e563ba6251a.png)

 <details><summary>List of all available fonts to copy & paste in Info.plist</summary>
  
  ```xml
  <key>UIAppFonts</key>
  <array>
    <string>AntDesign.ttf</string>
    <string>Entypo.ttf</string>
    <string>EvilIcons.ttf</string>
    <string>Feather.ttf</string>
    <string>FontAwesome.ttf</string>
    <string>FontAwesome5_Brands.ttf</string>
    <string>FontAwesome5_Regular.ttf</string>
    <string>FontAwesome5_Solid.ttf</string>
    <string>Foundation.ttf</string>
    <string>Ionicons.ttf</string>
    <string>MaterialIcons.ttf</string>
    <string>MaterialCommunityIcons.ttf</string>
    <string>SimpleLineIcons.ttf</string>
    <string>Octicons.ttf</string>
    <string>Zocial.ttf</string>
    <string>Fontisto.ttf</string>
  </array>
  ```
  
</details>

- In your XCode Settings, in the **Build Phases** tab, under **Copy Bundle Resources** add the fonts you have copied in the `Fonts` directory.

- When using auto linking, it will automatically add all fonts to the **Build Phases**, **Copy Pods Resources**. Which will end up in your bundle.
  To avoid that, create a `react-native.config.js` file at the root of your react-native project with:

```js
module.exports = {
  dependencies: {
    'react-native-vector-icons': {
      platforms: {
        ios: null,
      },
    },
  },
};
```

<br>

_Note: you need to recompile your project after adding new fonts._

### Android

#### Option: With Gradle (recommended)

This method has the advantage of fonts being copied from this module at build time so that the fonts and JS are always in sync, making upgrades painless.

Edit `android/app/build.gradle` ( NOT `android/build.gradle` ) and add the following:

```gradle
apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native-vector-icons/fonts.gradle"
```

To customize the files being copied, add the following instead:

```gradle
project.ext.vectoricons = [
    iconFontNames: [ 'MaterialIcons.ttf', 'EvilIcons.ttf' ] // Name of the font files you want to copy
]

apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native-vector-icons/fonts.gradle"
```

#### Option: Manually

- Copy the contents in the `Fonts` folder to `android/app/src/main/assets/fonts` (_note lowercase fonts folder_).

##### Integrating library for `getImageSource` support

These steps are optional and only needed if you want to use the `Icon.getImageSource` function.

- Edit `android/settings.gradle` to look like this (without the +):

  ```diff
  rootProject.name = 'MyApp'

  include ':app'

  + include ':react-native-vector-icons'
  + project(':react-native-vector-icons').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-vector-icons/android')
  ```

- Edit `android/app/build.gradle` (note: **app** folder) to look like this:

  ```diff
  apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

  android {
    ...
  }

  dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
    //noinspection GradleDynamicVersion
    implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"  // From node_modules

  + implementation project(':react-native-vector-icons')
  }
  ```

- Edit your `MainApplication.java` (deep in `android/app/src/main/java/...`) to look like this (note **two** places to edit):
- Note: this is optional step, it's necessary only and only if your **react-native app doesn't support auto-linking** otherwise you can ignore this.

  ```diff
  package com.myapp;

  + import com.oblador.vectoricons.VectorIconsPackage;

  ....

    @Override
    protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
      return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
        new MainReactPackage()
  +   , new VectorIconsPackage()
      );
    }

  }
  ```

### macOS via [`react-native-macos`](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-macos)

- Browse to `node_modules/react-native-vector-icons` and drag the folder `Fonts` to your project in Xcode. **Make sure your app is checked under "Add to targets" and that "Create folder references" is checked**.
- Edit `Info.plist` and add a property called **Application fonts resource path** (or `ATSApplicationFontsPath` if Xcode won't autocomplete/not using Xcode) and type `Fonts` as the value.

_Note: you need to recompile your project after adding new fonts, also ensure that the `Fonts` folder also appear under **Copy Bundle Resources** in **Build Phases**._

### Windows via [`react-native-windows`](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows)

- In the top level projects (/windows/project-name/Assets), copy and paste the font files.
- Open your solution in Visual Studio, right click the Assets folder in your solution, click **Add > Existing Item**.
- Select the fonts that were into /windows/project-name/assets and click **Add**.

_Note: you need to recompile your project after adding new fonts._

### Web (with [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/))

In your webpack configuration file, add a section to handle ttf files using url-loader (or file-loader)

```js
{
  test: /\.ttf$/,
  loader: "url-loader", // or directly file-loader
  include: path.resolve(__dirname, "node_modules/react-native-vector-icons"),
},
```

Then consume those files in your JavaScript entry point to get the bundled url and inject a style tag in your page:

```js
// Use prebuilt version of RNVI in dist folder
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/dist/FontAwesome';

// Generate required css
import iconFont from 'react-native-vector-icons/Fonts/FontAwesome.ttf';
const iconFontStyles = `@font-face {
  src: url(${iconFont});
  font-family: FontAwesome;
}`;

// Create stylesheet
const style = document.createElement('style');
style.type = 'text/css';
if (style.styleSheet) {
  style.styleSheet.cssText = iconFontStyles;
} else {
  style.appendChild(document.createTextNode(iconFontStyles));
}

// Inject stylesheet
document.head.appendChild(style);
```

## Upgrading

Upgrading this package often requires the font files linked to your projects to be updated as well. If the automatic linking works for you, running this again should update the fonts. Otherwise you need to follow the steps outlined in the [installation](#installation) section.

## `Icon` Component

You can either use one of the bundled icons above or roll your own custom font.

```js
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome';
const myIcon = <Icon name="rocket" size={30} color="#900" />;
```

### Properties

Any [Text property](https://reactnative.dev/docs/text.html) and the following:

| Prop        | Description                                                             | Default     |
| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------- |
| **`size`**  | Size of the icon, can also be passed as `fontSize` in the style object. | `12`        |
| **`name`**  | What icon to show, see Icon Explorer app or one of the links above.     | _None_      |
| **`color`** | Color of the icon.                                                      | _Inherited_ |

### Static Methods

| Prop                     | Description                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **`getFontFamily`**      | Returns the font family that is currently used to retrieve icons as text. Usage: `const fontFamily = Icon.getFontFamily()`                                                                |
| **`getImageSource`**     | Returns a promise that resolving to the source of a bitmap version of the icon for use with `Image` component et al. Usage: `const source = await Icon.getImageSource(name, size, color)` |
| **`getImageSourceSync`** | Same as `getImageSource` but synchronous. Usage: `const source = Icon.getImageSourceSync(name, size, color)`                                                                              |
| **`getRawGlyphMap`**     | Returns the raw glyph map of the icon set. Usage: `const glyphMap = Icon.getRawGlyphMap()`                                                                                                |
| **`hasIcon`**            | Checks if the name is valid in current icon set. Usage: `const isNameValid = Icon.hasIcon(name)`                                                                                          |

### Styling

Since `Icon` builds on top of the `Text` component, most [style properties](https://reactnative.dev/docs/style.html) will work as expected, you might find it useful to play around with these:

- `backgroundColor`
- `borderWidth`
- `borderColor`
- `borderRadius`
- `padding`
- `margin`
- `color`
- `fontSize`

NOTE: On android `Text` doesn't currently support `border*` styles, to circumvent this simply wrap your `Icon` with a `View`.

By combining some of these you can create for example :

## `Icon.Button` Component

A convenience component for creating buttons with an icon on the left side.

```js
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome';
const myButton = (
  <Icon.Button
    name="facebook"
    backgroundColor="#3b5998"
    onPress={this.loginWithFacebook}
  >
    Login with Facebook
  </Icon.Button>
);

const customTextButton = (
  <Icon.Button name="facebook" backgroundColor="#3b5998">
    <Text style={{ fontFamily: 'Arial', fontSize: 15 }}>
      Login with Facebook
    </Text>
  </Icon.Button>
);
```

### Properties

Any [`Text`](https://reactnative.dev/docs/text.html), [`TouchableHighlight`](https://reactnative.dev/docs/touchablehighlight.html) or [`TouchableWithoutFeedback`](https://reactnative.dev/docs/touchablewithoutfeedback.html) property in addition to these:

| Prop                  | Description                                                                                                                                       | Default             |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| **`color`**           | Text and icon color, use `iconStyle` or nest a `Text` component if you need different colors.                                                     | `white`             |
| **`size`**            | Icon size.                                                                                                                                        | `20`                |
| **`iconStyle`**       | Styles applied to the icon only, good for setting margins or a different color. _Note: use `iconStyle` for margins or expect unstable behaviour._ | `{marginRight: 10}` |
| **`backgroundColor`** | Background color of the button.                                                                                                                   | `#007AFF`           |
| **`borderRadius`**    | Border radius of the button, set to `0` to disable.                                                                                               | `5`                 |
| **`onPress`**         | A function called when the button is pressed.                                                                                                     | _None_              |

## Usage as PNG image/source object

Convenient way to plug this in into other components that rely on bitmap images rather than scalable vector icons. Takes the arguments `name`, `size` and `color` as described above.

```js
Icon.getImageSource('user', 20, 'red').then(source =>
  this.setState({ userIcon: source })
);
```

Alternatively you may use the synchronous method `Icon.getImageSourceSync` to avoid rendering glitches. Keep in mind that this method is blocking and might incur performance penalties. Subsequent calls will use cache however.

# Multi-style fonts

Some fonts today use multiple styles, FontAwesome 5 for example, which is supported by this library. The usage is pretty much the same as the standard `Icon` component:

```jsx
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome5';

const myIcon1 = <Icon name="comments" size={30} color="#900" />; // Defaults to regular
const myIcon2 = <Icon name="comments" size={30} color="#900" solid />;
const myIcon3 = <Icon name="comments" size={30} color="#900" light />; // Only in FA5 Pro
```

### Static methods

All static methods from `Icon` is supported by multi-styled fonts.

| Prop                     | Description                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **`getFontFamily`**      | Returns the font family that is currently used to retrieve icons as text. Usage: `const fontFamily = Icon.getFontFamily(style)`                                                           |
| **`getImageSource`**     | Returns a promise that resolving to the source of a bitmap version of the icon for use with `Image` component et al. Usage: `const source = await Icon.getImageSource(name, size, color)` |
| **`getImageSourceSync`** | Same as `getImageSource` but synchronous. Usage: `const source = Icon.getImageSourceSync(name, size, color)`                                                                              |
| **`getRawGlyphMap`**     | Returns the raw glyph map of the icon set. Usage: `const glyphMap = Icon.getRawGlyphMap(style)`                                                                                           |
| **`hasIcon`**            | Checks if the name is valid in current icon set. Usage: `const isNameValid = Icon.hasIcon(name, style)`                                                                                   |
| **`getStyledIconSet`**   | Use this to get a `Icon` component for a single style. Usage. `const StyledIcon = Icon.getStyledIconSet(style)`                                                                           |

If no style argument is passed (or if it's invalid) the methods will default to a pre-defineds fallback.

### Components

`Icon.Button` is supported, usage is just like `Icon`:

```jsx
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome5';
const myButton = (
  <Icon.Button name="facebook" onPress={this.loginWithFacebook} solid>
    Login with Facebook
  </Icon.Button>
);
```

## Custom Fonts

### `createIconSet(glyphMap, fontFamily[, fontFile])`

Returns your own custom font based on the `glyphMap` where the key is the icon name and the value is either a UTF-8 character or it's character code. `fontFamily` is the name of the font **NOT** the filename. Open the font in Font Book.app or similar to learn the name. Optionally pass the third `fontFile` argument for android support, it should be the custom font file name.

```js
import { createIconSet } from 'react-native-vector-icons';
const glyphMap = { 'icon-name': 1234, test: '∆' };
const Icon = createIconSet(glyphMap, 'FontName', 'font-name.ttf');
```

### `createIconSetFromFontello(config[, fontFamily[, fontFile]])`

Convenience method to create a custom font based on a [fontello](http://fontello.com) config file. Don't forget to import the font as described above and drop the `config.json` somewhere convenient in your project.

```js
import { createIconSetFromFontello } from 'react-native-vector-icons';
import fontelloConfig from './config.json';
const Icon = createIconSetFromFontello(fontelloConfig);
```

### `createIconSetFromIcoMoon(config[, fontFamily[, fontFile]])`

```js
import { createIconSetFromIcoMoon } from 'react-native-vector-icons';
import icoMoonConfig from './selection.json';
const Icon = createIconSetFromIcoMoon(
  icoMoonConfig,
  'LineAwesome',
  'line-awesome.ttf'
);
```

Make sure you're using the _Download_ option in [IcoMoon](https://icomoon.io/app), and use the `.json` file that's included in the `.zip` you've downloaded. You'll also need to import the `.ttf` font file into your project, following the instructions above.

### `createMultiStyleIconSet(styles [, options])`

```jsx
import { createMultiStyleIconSet } from 'react-native-vector-icons';

/*
 * This is just example code, you are free to
 * design your glyphmap and styles to your liking
 */

import glyphmap from './glyphmap.json';
/*
 * glyphmap = {
 *   "style1": [
 *     "hello",
 *     "world"
 *   ],
 *   "style2": [
 *     "foo",
 *     "bar"
 *   ]

#### iOS

You have to manually make a reference of your `.ttf` on your xcodeproj `Resources` folder and in `Info.plist`.

## Animation

React Native comes with an amazing animation library called [`Animated`](https://reactnative.dev/docs/animated.html). To use it with an icon, simply create an animated component with this line: `const AnimatedIcon = Animated.createAnimatedComponent(Icon)`. You can also use the higher level animation library [react-native-animatable](https://github.com/oblador/react-native-animatable).

## Examples

### IconExplorer

Try the `IconExplorer` project in `Examples/IconExplorer` folder, there you can also search for any icon.

![Screenshot of IconExplorer](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/378279/8903470/a9fe6b46-3458-11e5-901f-98b7b676d0d3.png)

### Basic Example

```js
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';

function ExampleView(props) {
  return <Icon name="ios-person" size={30} color="#4F8EF7" />;
}
```

### TabBar

Since [`TabBarIOS`](https://reactnative.dev/docs/tabbarios.html) was removed from core in favor of [@react-navigation/bottom-tabs](https://reactnative.dev/docs/tabbarios.html), it is also removed as a convenience component from this library. Simply use the `Icon` instead, but don't forget to import and link to this project as described above first.

Below is an [example](https://reactnavigation.org/docs/bottom-tab-navigator/#example) taken from `react-navigation`:

```js
import { createBottomTabNavigator } from '@react-navigation/bottom-tabs';
import MaterialCommunityIcons from 'react-native-vector-icons/MaterialCommunityIcons';

const Tab = createBottomTabNavigator();

function MyTabs() {
  return (
    <Tab.Navigator
      initialRouteName="Feed"
      tabBarOptions={{
        activeTintColor: '#e91e63',
      }}
    >
      <Tab.Screen
        name="Feed"
        component={Feed}
        options={{
          tabBarLabel: 'Home',
          tabBarIcon: ({ color, size }) => (
            <MaterialCommunityIcons name="home" color={color} size={size} />
          ),
        }}
      />
      <Tab.Screen
        name="Notifications"
        component={Notifications}
        options={{
          tabBarLabel: 'Updates',
          tabBarIcon: ({ color, size }) => (
            <MaterialCommunityIcons name="bell" color={color} size={size} />
          ),
          tabBarBadge: 3,
        }}
      />
      <Tab.Screen
        name="Profile"
        component={Profile}
        options={{
          tabBarLabel: 'Profile',
          tabBarIcon: ({ color, size }) => (
            <MaterialCommunityIcons name="account" color={color} size={size} />
          ),
        }}
      />
    </Tab.Navigator>
  );
}
```

### ToolbarAndroid

Since [`ToolbarAndroid`](https://github.com/react-native-community/toolbar-android) was removed from core, it is also removed as a convenience component from this library. Simply use `getImageSourceSync` instead, but don't forget to import and link to this project as described above first.

```js
import ToolbarAndroid from '@react-native-community/toolbar-android';
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';

const navIcon = Icon.getImageSourceSync('md-arrow-back', 24, 'white');
const overflowIcon = Icon.getImageSourceSync('md-more', 24, 'white');
const settingsIcon = Icon.getImageSourceSync('md-settings', 30, 'white');
const twitterIcon = Icon.getImageSourceSync('logo-twitter', 25, '#4099FF');

function ToolbarView(props) {
  return (
    <ToolbarAndroid
      title="Home"
      titleColor="white"
      navIcon={navIcon}
      onIconClicked={props.navigator.pop}
      actions={[
        {
          title: 'Settings',
          icon: settingsIcon,
          show: 'always',
        },
        {
          title: 'Follow me on Twitter',
          icon: twitterIcon,
          show: 'ifRoom',
        },
      ]}
      overflowIcon={overflowIcon}
    />
  );
}
```

### Inline Icons

```js
import { Text } from 'react-native';
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';

function ExampleView(props) {
  return (
    <Text>
      Lorem <Icon name="ios-book" color="#4F8EF7" /> Ipsum
    </Text>
  );
}
```

## Generating your own icon set from a CSS file

If you already have an icon font with associated CSS file then you can easily generate a icon set with the `generate-icon` script.

### Example usage:

```
./node_modules/.bin/generate-icon path/to/styles.css --componentName=MyIcon --fontFamily=myicon > Components/MyIcon.js
```

### Options

Any flags not listed below, like `--componentName` and `--fontFamily`, will be passed on to the template.

#### `-p`, `--prefix`

CSS selector prefix [default: ".icon-"]

#### `-t`, `--template`

Template in JS template string format [default: "./template/iconSet.tpl"]

For default template please provide `--componentName` and `--fontFamily`.

#### `-o`, `--output`

Save output to file, defaults to STDOUT

## [Changelog](https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons/releases)

## Troubleshooting

#### The icons show up as a crossed out box on Android

- Make sure you've copied the font to `android/app/src/main/assets/fonts`.
- Delete the build folder with `rm -rf android/app/build`.
- Recompile the project.

#### Red screen with "Unrecognized font family" error on iOS

- Make sure you've added manually the reference of your `.ttf` on your xcodeproj `Resources` folder.
- Check that the font you are trying to use appears in `Info.plist`, if you've added the whole folder and it's blue in color, then you need to add it to the path.
- Check that the font is copied in the _Copy Bundle Resources_ in _Build Phases_.
- Delete the build folder with `rm -rf ios/build`
- Recompile the project.

#### Android build fails on Windows for no good reason

Both npm and android file hierarchies tend to get very deep and even worse when you combine them. Since Windows file system has a max length, long file name addresses will result in numerous errors including `Execution failed for task ':react-native-vector-icons:processReleaseResources'`. So try to keep the path to your project folder as short as possible.

#### Wrong icons are shown after upgrading this package

You probably didn't update the font files linked to your native project after upgrading. However, this only applies to Android targets since iOS bundles the fonts when building the app (try to clean your build from Xcode if the problem exists). On android you can relink the project or you manually update the fonts. To have them automatically synced use the [gradle approach](https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons#option-with-gradle-recommended).

#### Some icons are missing after upgrading this package

Sometimes vendors decides to remove some icons from newer releases, this has nothing to do with this package. If you depend on an older version of a font you can add it as a [custom font](#custom-fonts).
