Overview

BAWR

This is a tool to automate the icons generation from sets of svg files into fonts and atlases.

The main purpose of this tool is to add it to the build process of your c++ project and let it do all the work, then you can use your svg icons as fonts or as spritesheets.

The project url is: https://github.com/mnesarco/bawr This project is based on a previous project: https://github.com/mnesarco/ff-batch

Features

  • Generate TrueType fonts from svg collections.
  • Generate png textures from svg collections.
  • Embed binaries into c++ sources ready to link.
  • Generate ImGui Font Loaders (c++). (howto)
  • Generate c++ Atlas Maps.
  • Generate c++ Font constants as Macros and/or as const/constexpr.
  • Apply transformation to svg files during the generation.
    • Textual transformations
    • Font forge supported transformations

Requirements

  • Python 3.6+
  • FontForge 20170924+
  • Inkscape 1.0+

Install

Build from sources

git clone https:://github.com/mnesarco/bawr.git
cd bawr

python3 -m pip install --upgrade build
python3 -m pip install wheel

python3 -m build 
python3 -m pip install dist/bawr-0.0.3-py3-none-any.whl

Or from pypi:

python3 -m pip install bawr

Terminology

Concept Description
Svg Icon It is just a file in .svg format. It must be a square.
Icon set or Collection It is a folder with svg icons
Configuration file It is a python file with all the options to generate your files. By convention it is called config.py

Usage

  1. Create a folder
  2. Put a file named config.py (you can copy the one from examples dir https://github.com/mnesarco/bawr/tree/main/examples)
  3. Add folders with svg icons
  4. Adjust the configuration (edit config.py)
  5. Call bawr
cd examples
python3 -m bawr.tool

Examples

You can use the examples dir (https://github.com/mnesarco/bawr/tree/main/examples) as a template for your project:

examples/
├── config.py
├── icons/
└── bootstrap-icons/

Result (generated files):

examples/build/
├── atlas_cells.hpp
├── atlas.cpp
├── atlas.hpp
├── atlas.png
├── my-icons_codes.hpp
├── my-icons.cpp
├── my-icons.hpp
├── my-icons_loader.hpp
└── my-icons.ttf
