Usage

Create a file to build svg.

// index.js

const Fontagon = require('fontagon')

Fontagon({
  files: [
    'path/**/*.svg'
  ],
  dist: 'dist/',
  fontName: 'fontagon-icons',
  style: 'all',
  classOptions: {
    baseClass: 'fontagon-icons',
    classPrefix: 'ft'
  }
}).then((opts) => {
  console.log('done! ' ,opts)
}).catch((err) => {
  console.log('fail! ', err)
})

Modify package.json's npm script or run a build file generated through the nodejs.

{
  "scripts": {
    "build:fontagon": "node build/index.js"
  }
}

$ npm run build:fontagon

Now use the build output. You only need to insert the style sheet.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="dist/fontagon-icons.css">

import '../dist/fontagon-icons.css'

Fontagon generates svg by class and supports ligature. just put the name of the svg.

<i class="fontagon-icons ft-icon">SVG FILE NAME</i>
<i class="fontagon-icons ft-icon ft-SVG FILE NAME"></i>

The above results are the same.
