Create a Formula
The purpose of a formula is to allow Fontist to determine where to download fonts.
There is a command that can generate a formula by an archive's link:
sh
fontist create-formula https://quoteunquoteapps.com/courierprime/downloads/courier-prime.zip
The result of its execution would be a YAML file. It can be changed with a text editor.
You may need to change it manually when:
- the script could not detect proper license text
- you would like to change a name of a formula (may use the
--name
option) - the archive is private (see private-formula-authentication)
The formula can be proposed to be merged to the main repository, or added to a private repository.
