Fork-Awesome customizer

This is a little hack that lets you generate custom Fork-Awesome builds with only a subset of icons.

Dependencies

Mostly dependencies of the Fork-Awesome project:

• ruby, bundle (package may be named ruby-bundler)
• node, npm
• bash, make, sed, head, cat, git

How to use it

1. Make sure you cloned this repository recursively, i.e. the Fork-Awesome/ folder is not empty.
   • You can fix that by running git submodule init and git submodule update
2. Run ./install.sh. This should prepare the FA submodule for building the font.
3. Verify that files wanted.all.ini, wanted.none.ini, fontcustom.yml and fontcustom.default.yml have been created.
   • You can update Fork-Awesome and these files at any time by running ./install.sh again.
4. Copy either of the "wanted" templates to wanted.ini, and customize it as needed.
   • Lines starting with # will be excluded.
   • The INI suffix is used only to make editors highlight it nicely, it's not really an INI file
   • You can even use a blank text file and just add the icons you want, with coments on # lines
   • Use the FA icons page for reference.
5. Adjust fontconfig.yml if you wish to give your custom font a different name, or change the class prefix.
6. Run ./build.sh to build your customized font.
7. Retrieve your output files from the output/ directory.

The screenshot shown above was built with the following wanted.ini:

thumbs-up

and some changes in fontcustom.yml:

font_name: TinyFork
css_selector: .lfa-{{glyph}}
