Stencil CLI - Stencil Server emulator for local theme development
Install
$ npm install -g bigcommerce/stencil-cli
Usage
$ stencil init
- Run this at the top level of your Stencil Theme. It will ask you a few questions to get your started.
$ stencil start
- Run this to start developing your theme.
- Run with
-o
or --open
to automatically open up a browser. - While stencil is running, you can type
rs
and then hit enter to auto-reload all browsers. This is similar to Nodemon's rs
option.
BrowserSync
Stencil CLI comes packaged with BrowserSync so you can take advantage of all of those amazing goodies! Have a look at their website for more information: http://www.browsersync.io/
SASS Compiling
You are able to compile your CSS using SASS (node-sass
) by placing your .scss
files in assets/scss/
. For example, add a scss file named theme.scss
to assets/scss/
and in your theme add {{{stylesheet 'assets/css/theme.css'}}}
to your html template. Stencil-CLI will compile theme.scss
to css
on the fly.
Autoprefixer
Stencil CLI comes packaged with Autoprefixer. You can set which browsers that should be targeted as well as if it should cascade the generated rules in the theme's config.json
file with these options:
autoprefixer_cascade
- Defaults to true
autoprefixer_browsers
- Defaults to ["> 5% in US"]
