Google Fonts Installer (gfinstall)

GFInstall is a simple shell script that helps to install google fonts directly from your terminal. When you press tab it tries to auto-complete the font name you're looking for.

Install

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:realpvn/gfinstall
sudo apt update
sudo apt install gfinstall

Run

gfinstall {fontNameHere}

By default fonts will be installed globally (/usr/share/fonts/), if you want to install it only for the current user then use -l or --local flag.

Usage & options

Usage:
gfinstall [options] [fontNameHere]

Options:
-l   |  --local            To Install fonts locally
-v   |  --version          Check gfinstall version
-h   |  --help             Displays available options

Examples:
gfinstall montserrat                  # installs montserrat font globally
gfinstall --local montserrat          # installs montserrat font locally
gfinstall -v                          # to check gfinstall version
