Create Icon Set for Your Rails Project

How created your icon-set for your rails project ?

  • Firstly, you should go to icomoon.io website.
  • You need to create new app on right-up corner of webpage
  • Now upload your font-icons after press import icons buttons,
  • Be careful, because your fonts format must be svg format,
  • When upload your icons, you should rename your icons,
  • Now select which rename icons, and go to download your icons,
  • When you download icomoon which provide to you with css and js files for font.
  • When you are opening which download file, you can see this file and copy font directory and paste in your assets for rails projects.
  • Go to css file in which download icomoons files, copy css file and paste in your style file (If you are using sass or less, you should convert to sass or less). Another way, you can create new file in stylesheet folder like
1

_icon.css.sass

file then paste in this file all icomoon-css. Then you should add your base style file like,

1

@import 'icon'

Now, you can use your icon set in your html

1

<span class = 'your_icon_name' />

or haml page like

1

%span.your_icon_name

If you want, you can add some properties like, in your css file for your fonts, maybe you want to change size your icons automatically, in your haml file,

1

%span.bf_mobile.bf-4x

like above when you write .bf-4x, your font-size should be 4 times bigger.

in your _icon.css.sass

1
2

.bf-4x
    font-size: 4em

like above you can add a lot of properties for your icons and make private for your rails projects.

That’ s all.

I hope helped to you.
