Creates a new font with a subset of icons from Material Design Icons Webfont
This library uses webfont to create the subset and @mdi/svg as the source.
Install
npm i material-icons-subset
How to use
You can pass a list of icon names to be included in the font as arguments in the command line:
material-icons-subset camera menu account-outline email archive
Or, you can pass the path for a config.json file:
material-icons-subset font-config.json
The config.json file must have an array called icons
with the name of the icons to be include in the font:
{
"icons": [
"camera",
"menu",
"account-outline",
"tune",
"bookmark-outline",
"pause",
"arrow-left",
"archive",
"email"]
}
Configuration
You can also use the config.json to configure:
{
"formats": ["ttf"], //svg, ttf, woff, woff2
"fontName": "Material Design Icons",
"fontFile": "materialdesignicons",
"dest": ".",
"icons": [...]
These are the default values.
The following config.json are accepted.
{"icons": [...], ...}}
{"material-icons-subset": {"icons": [...], ...}}
{"extra": {"icons": [...], ...}}
{"extra": {"material-icons-subset": {"icons": [...], ...}}}
In this way, package.json or app.json can be used to configuration.
Result
By default, the library will create two files:
materialdesignicons-subset.ttf
and
materialdesignicons-subset.json
with the GlyphMap.
The GlyphMap file can be used with libraries like react-native-vector-icons with the alias configuration in the bundler for the font and for the GlyphMap. In this library this font is called MaterialComunityIcons.
