Metadata for cloud-bolt is incorrect (metadata does not include icon history) #20045

Open iJunkie22 opened 10 months ago

The metadata for cloud-bolt indicates that the icon existed in v5.5.0, but the .svg files do not exist in any of 5.x. (It is untested whether they exist in the 5.x fonts).

https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/blob/deeea78c52bfe00b6e251ffddccf5570d5fdb05e/metadata/icons.yml#L9671

Correcting this error requires changing icons.yml and icons.json.

This error also shows up on the website (see screenshot).

Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Font Awesome Community and thanks for reporting this.

fa-cloud-bolt exists under 5.5.0 Pro with the name thunderstorm

https://fontawesome.com/v5/icons/thunderstorm?f=classic&s=solid

It is still available with the thunderstorm alias in FA 6 and I guess it has been moved to Free Icons together with the 6.1.0 release including Humanitarian icons

I understand that this is confusing, but I guess that at the moment we do not have the amount of metadata to generate "history log" of icons, like:

  • "Released in 5.5.0 in Pro Set"
  • "Released in 6.1.0 in Free Set"
  • "Updated in x "
  • "Renamed to x "

Our current metadata is not this rich, you are correct @tagliala .

In the future we could make this a richer experience...
