Example

File structure:

project
└───icons
│   │   account.svg
│   │   arrow_left.svg
│   │   arrow_right.svg
│   │   collection.svg
│   
└───lib
│   │   icon_font
│   │   widgets

Run command:

$ icon_font_generator --from=icons --class-name=UiIcons --out-font=lib/icon_font/ui_icons.ttf --out-flutter=lib/widgets/icons.dart

Generates:

project
└───icons
│   │   account.svg
│   │   arrow_left.svg
│   │   arrow_right.svg
│   │   collection.svg
│   
└───lib
│   └───widgets
│   |   │   icons.dart
│   │
│   └───icon_font
│       │   ui_icons.ttf

Generated icons.dart:

// GENERATED CODE - DO NOT MODIFY BY HAND

import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';

@immutable
class _UiIconsData extends IconData {
  const UiIconsData(int codePoint)
      : super(
          codePoint,
          fontFamily: 'UiIcons',
        );
}

@immutable
class UiIcons {
  UiIcons._();

  static const IconData account = _UiIconsData(0xe000);
  static const IconData arrowLeft = _UiIconsData(0xe001);
  static const IconData arrowRight = _UiIconsData(0xe002);
  static const IconData collection = _UiIconsData(0xe003);
}

And also need add font to pubspec.yaml:

...

flutter:
  fonts:
    - family: UiIcons
      fonts:
        - asset: lib/src/icon_font/ui_icons.ttf
