Server for glyph/font files compatible with mapbox-gl-js

$ npm install --global map-glyph-server

The following environment variables are used by map-glyph-server

• MAP_GLYPH_SERVER_FONT_PATH - needs to specify the location of the fonts files
• MAP_GLYPH_SERVER_PORT - local port to which map-glyph-server binds to default: 3060
• MAP_GLYPH_SERVER_CACHE_MAX_AGE - if specified used as a max-age value of the Cache-Control header when serving font/pbf files (maximum amount of seconds a resource is considered fresh)

/etc/default/map-glyph-server can be used to set environment variables

Prior to starting the server glyphs should be located in MAP_GLYPH_SERVER_FONT_PATH directory. This can be achieved using openmaptiles/fonts or a similar utility.

In order to use the fonts edit Style JSON and change the endpoint for glyphs:

"glyphs": "https://fonts.example.com/fonts/{fontstack}/{range}.pbf",
