A small library and server to generate SDF font glyphs, written in Golang.

The http server implements the Mapbox GL Glyphs API (`/{fontstack}/{range}.pbf`)

## Using Fontmachine

There are serval ways to use Fontmachine.

### Docker

When you want to run Fontmachine with docker, use the following command:

`docker run -p 8080:8080 -v {font path}:/fonts jpbe/fontmachine`

Place all font files (ttf) in a folder and replace `{font path}` in the above command with the path.

If you want to use this just replace your glyph path with `https://use.fontmachine.io/{fontstack}/{range}.pbf`
