Sasster

Compiles SCSS/SASS to CSS using libsass. The main difference between it and others is that there is a watch option that will only re-compile files that need to be, rather than re-compiling everything after every change.

Setup

Configuration can either be added directly into your package.json, or you can create a sasster.config.js file in order to use custom includePaths (i.e. Bourbon, Neat).

Install

With npm do:

npm install -D sasster

Usage

Usage: sasster <source> <dest> --cwd [str] --imagePath [str] --outputStyle [str] --sourceMap [bool] -c [str] -w [bool]

Options:

    --cwd           Path to the Current Working Directory, useful when using
                    globs in the <source> option

    --imagePath     Path to your image directory

    --outputStyle   Change the generated CSS output, default is nested

    --sourceMap     Boolean, whether or not to generate source maps

    --config, -c    Path to a custom configuration file.

    --watch, -w     A bundle name to watch. You can repeat 
                    this option for each bundle you want to
                    watch.

Example

using standalone

  $ sasster **/*.scss dist/css --cwd=src/scss --imagePath=img --sourceMap=true --outputStyle=compressed -w

Configuration using package.json

...
  "sasster": {
    "cwd": "src/scss"
    "src": "**/*.scss",
    "dest": "dist/css"
    "imagePath": "img",
    "outputStyle": "nested",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "chokidar": {
      "usePolling": true
    }
  }
...
  "scripts": {
    "clean": "rimraf dist/css/*",
    "watch:styles": "sasster -w",
    "build:styles": "npm run clean && sasster --sourceMap=false --outputStyle=compressed",
    "dev": "npm run watch:styles",
    "prod": "npm run build:styles"
  }

Example

using the above package.json

  $ npm run dev

Configuration using sasster.config.js

(in your project's root)

var neat = require('node-neat');

module.exports = {
  cwd: 'src/scss'
  src: '**/*.scss',
  dest: 'dist/css'
  imagePath: 'img',
  outputStyle: 'nested',
  sourceMap: true,
  includePaths: neat.includePaths,
  chokidar: {
    usePolling: true
  }
}
