npm install grunt-fontello --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-fontello');

The "fontello" task

grunt.initConfig({
  fontello: {
    dist: {
      options: {
          config  : 'config.json',
          fonts   : 'output/fonts',
          styles  : 'output/css',
          scss    : true,
          force   : true
      }
    }
  },
})
