Allow third-party font formulas #75

Closed ronaldtse closed 2 years ago

ronaldtse commented 3 years ago

Some people may want to install fonts from private locations or do not match the "publicly available font" criteria we have in the official Fontist formula repository.

Perhaps we should allow people to build and use their own Fontist formula repositories.

This was resolved in https://github.com/fontist/fontist/issues/238 and documented here.

Let's close it? Or there are some thoughts on this issue?

ronaldtse commented 2 years ago

I think we wanted to deal with non-private (i.e. public) formula repos. Could we make one to try out?

alexeymorozov commented 2 years ago

Ah, understood: public formula repos but not the main (our) repo. Ok, let's try out.

alexeymorozov commented 2 years ago

Had an issue when a third party repo has a non-default branch name. Fixed it in #268.

Created a public repo to test.

bin/fontist repo setup https://github.com/fontist/example-formulas.git
bin/fontist install -f "lucida grande"
bin/fontist update

They all work.

Closing, thanks @alexeymorozov !
