Gulp/Elixir fonts issue

[Ehesp]

Currently the CSS are being loaded from public/build/css, so the fonts for Bootstrap and FontAwesome need to be within public/build/fonts.

Currently I'm using the copy command:

.copy('app/assets/bower_components/bootstrap/dist/fonts/', 'public/build/fonts')
.copy('app/assets/bower_components/fontawesome/fonts/', 'public/build/fonts');

This works, however it throws an error if it is run when the fonts are already there, and seems to remove them... which sucks.

There is a publish command, however that doesn't work with gulp watch. Really not sure what to do.

Currently while watching, I don't see the icons, but before pushing I have to run gulp, to copy them in.

EDIT:

Error: ENOENT, open '/Users/elliothesp/Documents/Code/Cachet/application/public/build/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot'

This error occurs when running gulp, and the fonts are already there.

@JeffreyWay is there something weird happening here with Elixir?

I'm tempted to switch them for a CDN version.

[Ehesp]

Don't use a CDN, if someone wants to use the project internally (very possible) it'll cause issues.

[jbrooksuk]

Fair point.

At any rate I noticed we use glyphicons and font awesome. Let's use one or the other.

[Ehesp]

Well font awesome has much better icons, and the others come with bootstrap
which we currently use so they're there anyway.

If we use the SCSS Bootstrap version, we could compile our own, thus dropping Glyphicons.

I'm working on this now, but I'm having issues. Even though I've pulled in bootstrap-sass-official then copied _bootstrap.scss into our assets/sass directory and then removed Glyphicons, they're still compiling in.
