icon {shiny}

Create an icon

Description

Create an icon for use within a page. Icons can appear on their own, inside of a button, and/or used with tabPanel() and navbarMenu().

Usage

icon(name, class = NULL, lib = "font-awesome", ...)

Arguments

name

The name of the icon. A name from either Font Awesome (when lib="font-awesome") or Bootstrap Glyphicons (when lib="glyphicon") may be provided. Note that the "fa-" and "glyphicon-" prefixes should not appear in name (i.e., the "fa-calendar" icon should be referred to as "calendar"). A name of NULL may also be provided to get a raw ⁠<i>⁠ tag with no library attached to it.

class

Additional classes to customize the style of an icon (see the usage examples for details on supported styles).

lib

The icon library to use. Either "font-awesome" or "glyphicon".

...

Arguments passed to the ⁠<i>⁠ tag of htmltools::tags.

Value

An ⁠<i>⁠ (icon) HTML tag.
