Statically rotate font-awesome icons

Before FontAwesome 5:

The standard declarations just contain .fa-rotate-90, .fa-rotate-180 and .fa-rotate-270. However you can easily create your own:

.fa-rotate-45 {
    -webkit-transform: rotate(45deg);
    -moz-transform: rotate(45deg);
    -ms-transform: rotate(45deg);
    -o-transform: rotate(45deg);
    transform: rotate(45deg);
}

With FontAwesome 5:

You can use what’s so called “Power Transforms”. Example:

<i class="fas fa-snowman" data-fa-transform="rotate-90"></i>
<i class="fas fa-snowman" data-fa-transform="rotate-180"></i>
<i class="fas fa-snowman" data-fa-transform="rotate-270"></i>
<i class="fas fa-snowman" data-fa-transform="rotate-30"></i>
<i class="fas fa-snowman" data-fa-transform="rotate--30"></i>

You need to add the data-fa-transform attribute with the value of rotate- and your desired rotation in degrees.

In case someone else stumbles upon this question and wants it here is the SASS mixin I use.

@mixin rotate($deg: 90){
    $sDeg: #{$deg}deg;

    -webkit-transform: rotate($sDeg);
    -moz-transform: rotate($sDeg);
    -ms-transform: rotate($sDeg);
    -o-transform: rotate($sDeg);
    transform: rotate($sDeg);
}
