Hello!

This PR begins implementation of meta table compilation for the Glyphs and UFO formats. This is a larger end-to-end implementation than my previous PRs, and so I am making an early draft to work on it publicly to make sure that it can be shaped from the beginning, and that it stays on track; all feedback and contributions welcome :)

Implemented

  • Full happy path
  • Produces an identical meta table for the top few fontc_crater reports

TODO

  • Confirm semantics of Glyphs custom parameter (Glyphs.app vs glyphsLib)
  • Confirm approach for StateSet construction in glyphs2fontir
  • Make error handling idiomatic to this project (no expect(...), no type conversion clutter, etc)
  • Rebase on main
  • Wait for fontations release that includes Custom types for the meta table fontations#1244
  • Fix lints
  • Fix failing tests
  • Add tests (!)

(most of these are also flagged as inline TODOs, to be resolved before merge)


Will implement #1113

Note: this is a personal contribution independent of my employer, and so I've submitted from a fork under my personal profile and email to make this distinction

This is sufficient to resolve a few ttx table diffs on fontc_crater, but
needs refinement.
This is heavily WIP; it needs a tidy and is untested, and should be
considered an initial draft only.

(rebased on main to adapt for #1131 and to use full fontations release instead of bleeding edge git reference)

This looks like it should be possible to unindent, e.g.

let static_metadata = context.ir.static_metadata.get();
let records = &static_metadata.misc.meta;

// Guard clause: nop if there are no meta records
if records.is_empty() {
  return Ok(());
}

context.meta.set(Meta::new(...));

looks right, I don't think meta can change global metrics

// TODO: This diverges from glyphsLib, which must convert a list of
// records into UFO's intermediate dict representation; is this
// actually an improvement, or a breaking change? What does Glyphs
// do?
