Fontsource for Flutter
Easily add Fontsource fonts to your flutter app. Includes a dart interface for the Fontsource API.
Getting started
To start, create a config in either your pubspec.yaml file under the fontsource key or in the fontsource.yaml file.
include: [my-package] # Defaults to all
fonts:
alex-brush: # This can be any font id
version: 4.5.3 # Defaults to latest
subsets: [latin, latin-ext] # Defaults to all
weights: [400] # Defaults to all
styles: [normal] # Defaults to all
The config will tell fontsource what to download and bundle into your flutter app. To ensure everything is downloaded, execute dart run fontsource after your config is modified. Also, make sure to run it whenever your repository is cloned. This will generate a local package in the .fontsource directory.
You can then import the fontsource package:
import 'package:fontsource/fontsource.dart';
Use the FontsourceTextStyle class to use a Fontsource font:
const Text(
'Hello world!',
style: FontsourceTextStyle(fontFamily: 'Alex Brush', fontSize: 30),
),
FontsourceTextStyle extends the TextStyle class, so any styling properties can be used to change the way the text looks.
Use With Packages
To use this in a package, add a configuration like normal, but don't run the fontsource cli.
Packages with a fontsource configuration will automatically be included. To manually specify what packages should be scanned, provide an include key with a list of package names to scan.
Fontsource API
The Fontsource API also has a dart interface that can be accessed through fontsource/api.dart.
