Possible values: css, scss, styl (feel free to contribute more).
Note: If you want to use a custom template use this option pass in a path string like this:
webfont({
template: "./path/to/my-template.css",
});
Or
webfont({
template: path.resolve(__dirname, "./my-template.css"),

Default: null
Description: If you want to transform glyph metadata (e.g. titles of CSS classes or unicode) before transferring it in your style template for your icons, you can use this option with glyphs metadata object.
Example:
import webfont from "webfont";
webfont({
files: "src/svg-icons/**/*.svg",
glyphTransformFn: (obj) => {
obj.name += "_transform";
something();
return obj;

Add the cli script to your package.json file's scripts object:
{
"scripts": {
"webfont": "node node_modules/webfont/dist/cli.js"
}
}
If you're using cross-env:
{
"scripts": {
"webfont": "cross-env node_modules/webfont/dist/cli.js"
}
}
Usage: webfont [input] [options]
Input: File(s) or glob(s).
If an input argument is wrapped in quotation marks, it will be passed to "fast-glob"
for cross-platform glob support.
Options:
--config
Path to a specific configuration file (JSON, YAML, or CommonJS)
or the name of a module in \`node_modules\` that points to one.
If no \`--config\` argument is provided, webfont will search for
configuration files in the following places, in this order:
- a \`webfont\` property in \`package.json\`
- a \`.webfontrc\` file (with or without filename extension:
\`.json\`, \`.yaml\`, and \`.js\` are available)
- a \`webfont.config.js\` file exporting a JS object
The search will begin in the working directory and move up the
directory tree until a configuration file is found.
