has the font infrastructure of

has the font infrastructure of cloudflare pages build instances been documented somehow? i'm trying to process some open graph images with sharp (a node.js package) and i set

export FONTCONFIG_PATH=${PWD}/assets/fonts

export FONTCONFIG_PATH=${PWD}/assets/fonts

export FONTCONFIG_PATH=${PWD}/assets/fonts

export FONTCONFIG_PATH=${PWD}/assets/fonts at my build script as per sharp instructions (i validated at that

PWD

PWD

PWD

PWD is what i might expect) but it seems like it still doesn't find my custom fonts. it's possible i'm missing something obvious here

here's what i'm doing exactly, https://github.com/ReactFinland/future-frontend-site

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 12:47 PM

i guess the main question is, how to validate that fontconfig actually picked up my custom fonts

James•1/4/23, 1:00 PM

I'm not directly familiar with fontconfig honestly, but my unofficial results show it at version 2.11.94-0ubuntu1.12.11.94-0ubuntu1.1 within the build image:https://cfdata.lol/products/pages/

Perhaps there's different config or things for versions?

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:15 PM

ok, that's good info. i see fontconfigfontconfig is there so i imagine the problem folds to understanding how it works better

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:16 PM

is it possible to run the build image locally somehow?

James•1/4/23, 1:16 PM

It is not, unfortunately

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:16 PM

ah, bummer

James•1/4/23, 1:17 PM

It's based on an older version of Netlify's build image (v3.4.0v3.4.0), which you could source from https://github.com/netlify/build-image

James•1/4/23, 1:18 PM

But there are definitely tweaks that have been made, so I wouldn't rely on it as a 1:1 representation

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:18 PM

ok, thanks a lot. i noticed setting FC_DEBUGFC_DEBUG should give more info from fontconfig so i guess that's the next natural step

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:19 PM

at least now i know for sure the env has fontconfig

James•1/4/23, 1:20 PM

Yeah

Here's the DockerfileDockerfile for 3.4.0: https://github.com/netlify/build-image/blob/v3.4.0/Dockerfile

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:21 PM

speaking of images, is it possible to patch them somehow? it would help if i could attach deno there. now i have to pull it for each build

James•1/4/23, 1:21 PM

unfortunately not, nope. You'll have to pull it every build

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:21 PM

ok, is there a cache for deps at least?

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:22 PM

i remember i saw something along that at netlify

James•1/4/23, 1:22 PM

no cache either unfortunately

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:22 PM

ok, hopefully one day

bebrawOP•1/4/23, 1:22 PM

thanks for help and have a nice year

James•1/4/23, 1:23 PM

you too!
