Export

Considering the following files are the ones icomoon generates and compresses:

.tmp/
├── demo-files
|   ├── demo.css
|   └── demo.js
├── demo.html
├── fonts
|   ├── icomoon.svg
|   ├── icomoon.ttf
|   └── icomoon.woff
├── Read Me.txt
├── selection.json
├── style.css
├── style.scss
└── variables.scss

When running:

cd your/path/to/fancy-icons-project/
node node_modules/.bin/icomoon-builder export fancy-icons ~/Downloads/icomoon.zip scss css fonts docs

We will obtain:

target/

├── docs
|   ├── demo

|   └── fancy-icons.woff
└── scss
    ├── fancy-icons.scss
    ├── _icons.scss
    └── _variables.scss
