All the other steps will be created by the mixin automatically, (See config).

Input:

  font-family: "Roboto";
  src:
    local("Roboto Bold Italic"),
    local("Roboto-BoldItalic"),
    url("../fonts/Roboto-BoldItalic.woff2") format("woff2"),
    url("../fonts/Roboto-BoldItalic.woff") format("woff");
  unicode-range: "U+0000—00FF";
  font-weight: 700;
  font-style: italic;
  font-display: swap;
}

Config

There is no real config except the mixin options that you can pass per font.

Most options are filled in. if left to its default value.

For this reason it is better to call a specific option. Instead changing the complete mixin options. Until you've reached the option you need to change.

Examples;

Bad way:

@include font-face("Roboto", "Regular", 400, "U+0-10FFFF", "../assets");

Good way:

@include font-face("Roboto", "Regular", $path: "../assets");

If an option is NULL it will be filled in by the font-face defaults

If an option is missing. Plz leave a feature request.

Tips
