[fontyourface] @font-your-face [#2598548]

@font-your-face provides an administrative interface for browsing and applying web fonts (using CSS @font-face, supported in all popular browsers) from a variety of sources.

# Summary

@font-your-face provides an administrative interface for browsing and applying web fonts (using CSS @font-face, supported in all popular browsers) from a variety of sources.

# Project URL

https://www.drupal.org/project/fontyourface

# Where is the code?

https://www.drupal.org/project/fontyourface though work is being done at https://github.com/fontyourface/fontyourface

# Estimated completion date

Honestly, not sure. I'm doing this in my spare time so *any* help I can get on this is greatly appreciated.

# Dependencies

The Drupal 8 version currently has no dependencies.

# Who's doing the port?

BTMash

# What help do they need?

Remaining submodules
- font_reference (I'm not sure what this module does, to be honest...though this seems like it could likely be replaced with entityreference and view modes instead)
- fontyourface_wysiwyg (It doesn't seem to be the hardest thing in the world to implement esp given most of the groundwork is laid out in http://activelamp.com/blog/drupal/drupal8-ckeditor-plugin/ ... but do we need it?)
- ~~google_fonts_api~~
- ~~edge_fonts~~
- ~~fontyourface_ui~~ (no longer a separate module due to how D8 works)
- ~~typekit_api~~
- ~~fontdeck~~ (this will not be ported as the service is now deprecated)
- ~~fontsquirrel~~
- ~~fonts.com~~
- ~~local_fonts~~
Improve routing menu and UI
Anything else?
Possible integration with taxonomy or some other simple tagging approach to get filtering by things like language, font classification, various font properties, etc.

# D8 roadmap

The roadmap currently is basically what is described above. Main goal is to get the remaining font providers (and possibly any new font providers) working first. Then we move on to improving the view for selecting, enabling, disabling fonts. And then off to improving the UI (I am not a designer or UX specialist so I've used words that make sense to me...which is not a always a good thing).

Updated the status, since there actually is a 8.x-3.x-dev version.

Is there an update on this? This is a module I use often and would like to use with a Drupal 8 installation I'm currently working on... Any help needed?

I had a chance talk with @sreynen and he is tied up for some time. I'm going to attempt starting on this and will be working on this on github at https://github.com/fontyourface/fontyourface (yes, there is a fontyourface group. I've invited @sreynen to be owner and will gladly accept any pull requests). The conversation (if any) should continue for this at https://www.drupal.org/node/2529070 or in the github issue queue.

I've updated the issue summary on where we are with things.

What works:

* Google Fonts
* Adobe Edge Fonts
* Baseline views support
* Config exports
* Font display (and selectors) get attached to a theme

I need help with porting the remaining font provider modules, views filters, fields, etc to have a UI that is as cool as
what @sreynen and @barisw did. But this would atleast let us start having a proper dev branch.

@sreynen made me a maintainer for the module and I'll be maintaining (as best as I can) the 8.x version. I've pushed up the work done so far and we should have a working dev release now. I'm keeping this ticket open to add all the child tickets.

Updated the issue summary with the following:

New modules:

Typekit

New Features:

Views Filters
Improved menus
Synced status property for views
Bringing views more in line with UX from 7.x

In general, improving the UX in using the module was the main goal of this sprint. I still need help with porting the other submodules to 8.x, namely:

Font Squirrel
Fonts.com
Custom (Uploaded) Fonts
Generate stylesheets from Font Displays. Right now, these are added inline which works but is not ideal.

I will likely not tackle the last one but am planning to tackle Font Squirrel next followed by Fonts.com.

I also need help with testing, making sure the module works nicely with both 8.0.x and 8.1.x (and later 8.2.x).

Issue update

local_fonts module is now implemented. Fully working with configuration api(!)
Core automated testing is now also in place. This will allow easier testing of new features / bug fixes, etc.

We are also now on beta2. After this, we will likely be onwards to an rc1 and if that goes without any new bug fixes, a stable release (so fingers crossed, before end of October)
