Introduction
============

|Build Status|

This is **pelicanfly**, a plugin for
`Pelican <http://docs.getpelican.com/>`__ that lets you type things like
``i ♥ :icon-coffee:`` in your
`Markdown <http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/>`__ documents
and have it come out as little `Font Awesome <http://fontawesome.io/>`__
icons in the browser. It provides a minimal extension to Markdown and a
plugin for Pelican.

The Pelican plugin hacks in some static assets to make this work with
Pelican "out of the box". If you just want the Markdown extension, it is
available
`separately <http://bmcorser.github.com/markdown-fontawesome/>`__.

Installation
============

It's not hard, just install via pip:

.. code:: bash

    (env)$ pip install pelicanfly

Then add to your Pelican settings, under ``PLUGINS`` as follows:

.. code:: python

    PLUGINS = [
        # ...
        'pelicanfly',
        # ...
    ]

If you have followed these steps correctly, next time you build your
Pelican blog, pelicanfly will do its magic and convert all the
``:icon-heart:`` style tags into proper nice little Font Awesome icons.
Job done!
