Icomoon.swift

Use your Icomoon fonts with Swift - auto-generates type safe enums for each icon

Usage

API

The generated framework extends UIFont, UIImage and String and generates an enum Icon. Cases are automatically created based on the name on Icomoon. (Example: my-search becomes .MySearch)

import Icomoon

//UILabel
searchIcon.text = String.iconWithName(.MySearch)
searchIcon.font = UIFont.iconOfSize(30)

//UIButton
buttonChat.titleLabel?.font = UIFont.iconOfSize(30)
buttonChat.setTitle(String.iconWithName(.Chat), for: .normal)

//UIImage
myImage.image = UIImage.icomoonIcon(name: .Chat, textColor: UIColor.black, size: CGSize(width:myImage.frame.width, height:myImage.frame.height))

Installation

Download and Make

1. Download or clone this repo.
2. Run make. That's it. (You can run make uninstall to uninstall.)

Generate framework

1. Download your font file from Icomoon (usally called icomoon.zip)
2. Run icomoon-swift icomoon.zip
3. Add the generated Icomoon.framework to your Xcode project by following the import instructions below.

Import Framework

Copy to root of Project

Project -> Target -> General -> Linked Frameworks and Libraries

Add Icomoon.framework

Embed Framework

Project -> Target -> Build Phases

Add a New Section ("New Copy Files Phase"), titled "Embed Frameworks" (if not exist)

Add Icomoon.framework

Strip Architectures

In order to submit to App Store, you'll need to automatically strip unsupported architectures (i386 simulator). Add this "Run Script" to you Build Phases, AFTER Embed Frameworks, or as the final entry.

APP_PATH="${TARGET_BUILD_DIR}/${WRAPPER_NAME}"

# This script loops through the frameworks embedded in the application and
# removes unused architectures.
find "$APP_PATH" -name '*.framework' -type d | while read -r FRAMEWORK
do
FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_NAME=$(defaults read "$FRAMEWORK/Info.plist" CFBundleExecutable)
FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH="$FRAMEWORK/$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_NAME"
echo "Executable is $FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH"

EXTRACTED_ARCHS=()

for ARCH in $ARCHS
do
echo "Extracting $ARCH from $FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_NAME"
lipo -extract "$ARCH" "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH" -o "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-$ARCH"
EXTRACTED_ARCHS+=("$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-$ARCH")
done

echo "Merging extracted architectures: ${ARCHS}"
lipo -o "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-merged" -create "${EXTRACTED_ARCHS[@]}"
rm "${EXTRACTED_ARCHS[@]}"

echo "Replacing original executable with thinned version"
rm "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH"
mv "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH-merged" "$FRAMEWORK_EXECUTABLE_PATH"

done
