A python API for evaluating language support in the Google Fonts collection.
Project description
This python module provides an API with data about languages/regions/scripts for use in the language-support categorization of the font families in the Google Fonts collection.
You can also directly access the raw textproto files on the Lib/gflanguages/data
directory:
Most of the code in this project was copied from the gftools
repository (https://github.com/googlefonts/gftools/) so that language/region/script data can be easily available to all our tools without having to also get the large dependency tree of gftools
. The most immediate user of this module is Font Bakery
, which needs to validate language support on font binaries being checked. (see https://github.com/googlefonts/fontbakery/issues/3605)
The second obvious user of this gflanguages
module is gftools
itself.
Language/region/script definitions and the gflanguages
modules are used as a subtree in the google/fonts
repo, on its lang/ directory (https://github.com/google/fonts/tree/main/lang).
This module is the main place to update these definitions, avoiding data duplication and guaranteeing uniformity across tools.
To learn more about how lang metadata affects downstream, see gf-guide/lang.
