Add a field formatter for outputting icon HTML

Hi great module, unfortunately its a bit of a requirement to have the output in the html so I was pleased to see that you guys have created a patch the module.

I tried to test this and I can see the field formatter but I still get no class output in the html so it's missing something.

Thanks for the contribution

Ok figured this out, it does not work at the moment as the output for fontawesome_iconpicker_field_formatter_view is only giving a blank result in the output.

/**
 * Implements hook_field_formatter_view().
 */
function fontawesome_iconpicker_field_formatter_view($entity_type, $entity, $field, $instance, $langcode, $items, $display) {
  $element = array();

  switch ($display['type']) {
    case 'fontawesome_iconpicker_icon':
      $size = $display['settings']['size'];
      foreach ($items as $item) {
        $element[] = '<i class="fa '. $item['value'] . ' fa-'. $size . '" aria-hidden="true"></i>';
      }
      break;
  }

  return $element;
}

However you can use the Icon field in the Icon API as this is not a text field it seems to work if you apply it and use the icon picker with it.

You have two choices we either locate the bug in the above code or make this module dependent on the Icon API.

Oh sorry i mixed up issues... this was not supposed to be committed :( Sorry.

hi @hey_germano, this issue is assigned to you, but i would like to see this fixed asap. Are you still working on this? If not, please unassign so that other's can look into it.

Btw, fontawesome_iconpicker already supports integration with icon_api, so is this still necessary?

+1 for patch in #10, fixes this issue.

Thanks for the contribution and testing. Committed to 7.x-1.x-dev branch
