##Integration

• Gulp

API

stylusIconFont(options)

options.glyphsDir

Type: String Default value: process.cwd()

Directory where will be searched for glips

options.outputDir

Type: String Default value: process.cwd()

Place where will be created font files

options.fontFacePath

Type: String Default value: '/'

Path that will be used in icon-font-font-face() mixin

options.fontName

Type: String Default value: 'iconfont'

options.autoDownloadVendor

Type: Boolean Default value: true

Auto download vendor icon sets based on icon prefix

VendorPrefixes:

• fa - Font Awesome

Example:

icon-font-font-face()

.fa
  font-family: icon-font-name

.fa.fa-bicycle:before
  content: icon-font-unicode("fa/bicycle")

Warning:

• Downloader will download and parse ALL available icons in vendor set

options.fixedWidth

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Creates a monospace font of the width of the largest input icon.

options.centerHorizontally

Type: Boolean Default value: false

Calculate the bounds of a glyph and center it horizontally.

Warning: The bounds calculation is currently a naive implementation that may not work for some icons. We need to create a svg-pathdata-draw module on top of svg-pathdata to get the real bounds of the icon. It's in on the bottom of my to do, but feel free to work on it. Discuss it in the related issue.

options.normalize

Type: Boolean Default value: true

Normalize icons by scaling them to the height of the highest icon.

Warning: The descent is a positive value!

The ascent formula is: ascent = fontHeight - descent.

options.log

options.watchMode

Type: Boolean Default value: true

Recompile font only when count (new glyphs) is added
