Icosmith Rails

Rails integration with an icosmith server. Creates a rake task to generate a new font from svg files using icosmith server

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'icosmith-rails'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install icosmith-rails

If you are using Rails, use the setup generator

$ rails g icosmith:setup

Otherwise create a config/icosmith directory and copy icosmith.yml and manifest.json from lib/generators/icosmith/setup/templates

manifest.json: It should contain the font configurations, like the example on lib/generators/icosmith/setup/templates/manifest.json

icosmith.yml: Change the parameters according to your project. Take a look at lib/generators/icosmith/setup/templates/icosmith.yml. generate_fonts_url is Icosmith's post URL.

You can also configure each parameter individually. Just call Icosmith.configure with a block:

  Icosmith.configure do |config|
    config.generate_fonts_url = "http://new-url.com/generate_font"
  end

rake icosmith:generate

If you want to use the example page provided by icosmith, use:

rake icosmith:download_and_extract
