Configuring Jest

We are utilizing @digital-ai/dot-icons which uses @font-face. If you are using Jest then you'll need to update the following files. The location of the files may be different based on the structure of your application

jest.config.js

moduleNameMapper: {
  '@digital-ai/dot-icons': '<rootDir>/testing-utils/style-mock.ts',
}

style-mock.ts

module.exports = {};

Contributing

You can import selection.json back to the IcoMoon app using the Import Icons button (or via Main Menu → Manage Projects) to retrieve your icon selection.

After downloading generated files from IcoMoon only the following files should be copied over.

• fonts/dot.woff
• fonts/dot.ttf
• fonts/dot.svg
• selection.json

You'll also need to copy the icon styles from the generated style.css and paste them at the bottom of index.css.

Be sure to update demo/index.html with the new icons, with the following.

<div>
  <i class="icon-flow"></i>
  <span>icon-flow</span>
</div>

Once complete, please submit a pull request with the updated files and request someone to review in the #dot-components channel on slack.

More information is available in the .dot design system
