find_font()

MAYAFLUX_API std::optional< std::string > MayaFlux::Portal::Text::find_font	(	std::string_view	family,
		std::string_view	style = {}
	)

Locate a system font file by family name and optional style.

Queries the platform font subsystem without requiring any bundled assets. On Linux: links against fontconfig and calls FcFontMatch. On macOS: shells out to fc-match if fontconfig is available, otherwise walks ~/Library/Fonts and /System/Library/Fonts. On Windows: walks WINDIR%\Fonts for a filename containing family.

The result is an absolute path suitable for passing directly to Portal::Text::set_default_font() or FontFace::load().

Parameters

family	Font family name, e.g. "JetBrains Mono", "DejaVu Sans".
style	Optional style hint, e.g. "Medium", "Bold", "Italic". Passed to fontconfig on Linux; ignored on other platforms.

Returns

Absolute path to a matching font file, or std::nullopt if no match could be found.
