Adding FontAwesome icons to a D3 graph

Question

I am trying to set an icon with FontAwesome instead of text in my D3 nodes. This is the original implmentation, with text:

g.append(\'svg:text\')
    .attr(\         


        

Answer 1

Just to put in code here what worked for me based on CarlesAndres's answer and mhd's comment:

node.append("text")
    .attr("style","font-family:FontAwesome;")
    .attr('font-size', "50px" )
    .attr("x", 440)
    .attr("y", 440)
    .text(function(d) { return '\uf118' });
