react-native-fontawesome-pro

Easily use your FontAwesome Pro 5.1 icons in React-Native.
v2 of this module takes advantage of enhancements in FontAwesome 5.1’s JS Package Cleanup and provides access to 409 new icons.
Want to install v1? View the old readme for FontAwesome Pro 5If upgrading from a v1 installation uninstall the previous prerequisite FontAwesome packages:

npm uninstall --save @fortawesome/fontawesome-free-brands @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-light @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-regular @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-solid

or

yarn remove @fortawesome/fontawesome-free-brands @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-light @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-regular @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-solid

1. Create a .npmrc file in the root of your project and the line below. Replace YOUR-TOKEN-HERE with your FontAwesome Pro token which you can find in your Font Awesome account . More info: Font Awesome docs: Using a Package Manager

@fortawesome:registry=https://npm.fontawesome.com/
//npm.fontawesome.com/:_authToken=YOUR-TOKEN-HERE

    This will allow you to download the pro solid, regular and light font packages from the fontawesome pro repo.

1. Install the FontAwesome Pro packages ( you will not be able to install them without the previous step )

npm install --save @fortawesome/pro-light-svg-icons @fortawesome/pro-regular-svg-icons @fortawesome/pro-solid-svg-icons @fortawesome/free-brands-svg-icons

    or

yarn add @fortawesome/pro-light-svg-icons @fortawesome/pro-regular-svg-icons @fortawesome/pro-solid-svg-icons @fortawesome/free-brands-svg-icons

1. Install react-native-svg

npm install --save react-native-svg

    or

yarn add react-native-svg

1. Link react-native-svg

react-native link

    …or if you only want to link the single library:

react-native link react-native-svg

    **Note:** Rebuilding the app for any simulator/emulator is required after running `react-native link`.

npm install react-native-fontawesome-pro --save

or

yarn add react-native-fontawesome-pro

The postinstall script will then automatically install the pro packages for you.Configure FontAwesomePro in your main app.js file. Optionally set the default font from "regular" to "solid" or "light":

import { configureFontAwesomePro } from "react-native-fontawesome-pro";

configureFontAwesomePro();
// configureFontAwesomePro("solid");
// configureFontAwesomePro("light");

Add icons to a component:

import Icon from "react-native-fontawesome-pro";

<View>
  <Icon name="chevron-right" color="red" type="regular" onPress={() => alert("do something")} />
  <Icon name="chevron-right" color="blue" type="solid" size={24}/>
  <Icon name="chevron-right" color="green" type="light" size={10} />
</View>
