from gulp iconfontCss to Webpack - css

Question

I would like to switch from gulp to webpack totally but I still I am looking for a good solution.
What this gulp task achieve :
Takes all svgs in src/assets/icons/**/*
Create fonts (ttf, eot, woff...)
Generate thanks to src/assets/css/icons_template.scss a icons.scss file creating classes for each icon
My Gulpfile
var gulp = require('gulp');
var iconfont = require('gulp-iconfont');
var iconfontCss = require('gulp-iconfont-css');
gulp.task('icons', function () {
return gulp.src('src/assets/icons/**/*')
.pipe(iconfontCss({
fontName: 'myapp-icons',
path: 'src/assets/css/icons_template.scss',
fontPath: '../fonts/icons/',
targetPath: '../../css/icons.scss',
cssClass: 'mu-icon'
}))
.pipe(iconfont({
fontName: 'myapp-icons',
formats: ['ttf', 'eot', 'woff', 'woff2', 'svg'],
normalize: true,
centerHorizontally: true
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('src/assets/fonts/icons'))
});
gulp.task('default', function () {
gulp.start('icons');
});
The template i use :
//src/assets/css/icons_template.scss
#font-face {
font-family: "<%= fontName %>";
src: url(<%= fontPath %><%= fontName %>.eot);
src: url(<%= fontPath %><%= fontName %>.eot?#iefix) format('eot'),
url(<%= fontPath %><%= fontName %>.woff2) format('woff2'),
url(<%= fontPath %><%= fontName %>.woff) format('woff'),
url(<%= fontPath %><%= fontName %>.ttf) format('truetype'),
url(<%= fontPath %><%= fontName %>.svg#<%= fontName %>) format('svg');
}
#mixin <%= cssClass%>-styles {
font-family: "<%= fontName %>";
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
font-style: normal;
font-variant: normal;
font-weight: normal;
// speak: none; // only necessary if not using the private unicode range (firstGlyph option)
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: none;
}
%<%= cssClass%> {
#include <%= cssClass%>-styles;
}
#function <%= cssClass%>-char($filename) {
$char: "";
<% _.each(glyphs, function(glyph) { %>
#if $filename == <%= glyph.fileName %> {
$char: "\<%= glyph.codePoint %>";
}<% }); %>
#return $char;
}
#mixin <%= cssClass%>($filename, $insert: before, $extend: true) {
&:#{$insert} {
#if $extend {
#extend %<%= cssClass%>;
} #else {
#include <%= cssClass%>-styles;
}
content: <%= cssClass%>-char($filename);
}
}
<% _.each(glyphs, function(glyph) { %>.<%= cssClass%>-<%= glyph.fileName %> {
#include <%= cssClass%>(<%= glyph.fileName %>);
}
<% }); %>

Here is what I managed to do with webpack :
Use webfonts-loader
Add a myapp.font.js file
module.exports = {
'files': [
'./icons/*.svg'
],
'cssTemplate': './fonts/myapp_icons_template.css.tpl',
'fontName': 'myapp-icons',
'classPrefix': 'myapp-icon-',
'baseSelector': '.myapp-icon',
'types': ['eot', 'woff', 'woff2', 'ttf', 'svg'],
'fileName': 'myapp-icons.[ext]'
};
Add this to my webpack loaders after imported the previous file:
{
test: /\.font\.js/,
loaders: [
'style-loader',
'css-loader',
'webfonts-loader'
]
},
And then the style is directly copied ton index.html
