Iconifont

This Node.js package allows you to transform all SVG files in a directory into four font files: SVG, TTF, WOFF, and WOFF2. Additionally, it generates a CSS stylesheet to facilitate their usage in web projects.

Installation

To install this package, you can use npm:

npm install --save-dev @imjano/iconifont

Usage

Here's an example of how to use this package in a TypeScript project:

import generateIconifont, { IGenerateIconifontArgs } from '@imjano/iconifont'

async function generateFonts() {
	const options: GenerateIconifontArgs = {
		svgDirectory: './my_svg_directory',
		outputFontDirectory: './fonts',
		outputCSSDirectory: './css',
		fontName: 'myIconFont',
		classSuffix: 'icon',
		classAffix: 'font',
		classNotation: 'camelCase',
		baseUnicode: 'E001',
	}

	try {
		await generateIconifont(options)
		console.log('Fonts and stylesheet generated successfully!')
	} catch (error) {
		console.error('An error occurred while generating fonts:', error)
	}
}

| Parameter | Description | | ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | svgDirectory | The path to the directory containing the SVG files to be used for generating the fonts. | | outputFontDirectory | The path to the directory where the font files (SVG, TTF, WOFF, WOFF2) will be generated. | | outputCSSDirectory | The path to the directory where the CSS stylesheet will be generated. | | fontName | The name to be used for the generated font. | | classSuffix | The suffix to be appended to the classes of the icons in the CSS stylesheet. | | classAffix | The affix to be appended to the font name in the CSS stylesheet. | | classNotation | The notation to be used for naming the classes of the icons in the CSS stylesheet. | | baseUnicode | The base Unicode value to be used for assigning Unicode codes to the icons in the stylesheet.
