/**
 * CSS font inlining task
 * Uses `gulp-simplefont64` to inline font files into base64-encoded data URIs
 *
 * Using `--watch` (or manually setting `env` to `{ watch: true }`) starts file watcher
 * When combined with `--skipBuild`, the task will not run immediately but only after changes
 */
gulp.task('css:fonts', () => {
  const task = require('@unic/estatico-font-datauri');

  const instance = task({
    src: [
      './src/assets/fonts/**/*',
    ],
    dest: './src/assets/.tmp',
    plugins: {
      concat: 'fonts.scss',
    },
    watch: {
      src: [
        './src/assets/fonts/**/*',
      ],
      name: 'css:fonts',
    },
  }, env);
  
  // Don't immediately run task when skipping build
  if (env.watch && env.skipBuild) {
    return instance;
  }

  return instance();
});

Run task (assuming the project's package.json specifies "scripts": { "gulp": "gulp" }): $ npm run gulp css:fonts
