Add icon helper method
Created by: rspeicher
This adds an icon
helper method to the IconsHelper
module (and also moves the spinner
helper method there to make ApplicationHelper
less of a junk drawer). Right now this method simply delegates to fa_icon
built into the font-awesome-rails
gem. It handles creating the i
element and adds the necessary classes.
This cleans up some minor pieces of code. If this PR gets accepted I've got another one that updates all of the HAML views to use this as well (e.g., %i.fa.fa-code-fork
becomes = icon('code-fork')
), but I didn't include it in this one because its touches dozens of files and I want to minimize the merge conflicts.
