Updated to use Font Awesome 6
Hi,
This pull request adds latex commands for Font Awesome 6.1.1 free icons (inspired by #258 and #235).
Since there is no official FontAwesome6 package yet, I created a node application (latex-fontawesome) that consumes the Font Awesome GraphQL API to get icons metadata and generate definitions (sty
file). Logic is based on plorcupine's latex-fontawesome project.
Steps in order to use icons from so-generated fontawesome6.sty
file:
- Use search on the official website to find icon by name or related tags.
- Use unicode of the desired icon to search for latex definition in
fontawesome6.sty
. - Copy and paste the associated definition in your latex document.

I've only quickly skimmed, but based on that the bot's comment seems unreasonable! Thanks for the PR, will look properly shortly.

I'm certainly in favour of keeping the dependency up to date, but I'm not sure how I feel about bundling it rather than using a version published on CTAN.
Have you considered publishing yours?
I've never created or published a package on CTAN. I'm gonna try to do it and thus update my PR

Any luck with CTAN @xaviermawet?
Hi @OJFord, I'll look into it very soon but with work and family, I haven't found the time to do it yet. I also contacted Marcel Fabian Krüger, author of the fontawesome5 package, and he told me he had no plan to create a fontawesome6 package. I keep you informed in the coming weeks
Of course, no problem, just noticed you added some commits do wondered if you'd managed it.
Cheers
I planned on opening a pull request for this but then I realized there's already one opened. Why not just remove (or comment on) \RequirePackage{fontawesome} in awesome-cv.cls and add a new package in resume.tex using \usepackage{fontawesome5}? |
Edit: Never mind. I just realized the font package is already Font Awesome 5
I uploaded a package named fontawesome6 on CTAN. I'm waiting for validation !
Oh great, nice one 🙂
@xaviermawet I can't find the package on CTAN
@willb256 the package hasn't been validated yet. I'm currently discussing with one CTAN's validator and the authors of others fontawesome packages to synchronize us about the package naming vs fontawesome version, the macros collision with other fontawesome packages, etc... So my package isn't available yet because it didn't pass the validation phase right now. But it should be available soon. Stay tune !
🥺

This bot seems a bit annoying @posquit0, I'm not sure we get enough (genuine) PRs that we can't make that judgement 'manually' - any objection to turning it off? Or at least only running on PR creation, not every update (which can get very noisy as here).
For now, I've excluded the binary files and the examples directory for pull-request-labler
action. I don't think this will solve the problem, so I'll look into something else soon.
