Libretype Data Tools is a collection of scripts for working with the whole libre/open-source typeface ecosystem.
⚠️ Warning: The CSV spreadsheet this uses is under active development and currently only backs up popular repositories on GitHub up to about 16 stars. Pull requests are welcome to improve the CSV spreadsheet. I hope to have this populated with at least the top 3000 OFL fonts ASAP. -Eli
This BASH script makes a backup of the full known OFL ecosystem, as defined by a CSV spreadsheet located in this repository. You will need a BASH-like terminal(macOS, Linux, WSL, etc) with Git installed for it to work correctly. From the root directory of this repository, run the script and a backup directory with the current date appended will be created in the same location. To run the script enter the command:
sh backup-ofl-complete.sh
A full OFL backup currently requires about 30GB of free disk space and can take a considerable amount of time depending on your internet connection speed.
If there is a typeface you want to see included, please make a pull request or issue to add it.
