broccoli-less-single
Advanced tools
The broccoli-less-single plugin compiles .less
files with
less.js.
This plugin is designed to compile a single, primary input file
into a single output file, with a node of @import
d dependencies. This
differs from broccoli-less,
which compiles each .less
file individually into a .css
file and doesn't
support @import
s or a single output file depending on multiple inputs.
This code is based heavily on broccoli-sass
npm install --save-dev broccoli-less-single
const compileLess = require('broccoli-less-single');
const outputNode = compileLess(inputNodes, inputFile, outputFile, options)
inputNodes
: An array of nodes that act as the include paths for
less. If you have a single node, pass [node]
.
inputFile
: Relative path of the main .less
file to compile. This
file must exist in one of the inputNodes
.
outputFile
: Relative path of the output CSS file.
options
: A hash of options for less + caching options.
var appCss = compileLess(sourceNodes, 'myapp/app.less', 'assets/app.css')
@import
-Example/* file: sub.less */
h1 {
font-size: 200em;
}
/* =================== */
/* file: app.less */
@import "sub.less";
html, body {
margin: 20px;
}
A sample project using bootstrap and broccoli-less-single can be found here.
// Brocfile.js
const Funnel = require('broccoli-funnel');
const compileLess = require('broccoli-less-single');
const mergeTrees = require('broccoli-merge-trees');
const appTree = funnel('app');
const lessTree = compileLess(appTree, 'styles/app.less', 'assets/app.css', {
paths: ['.', 'bower_components/bootstrap/less'],
// Note: if you want to cache to avoid possibly expensive rebuilds
cacheInclude: [/.*\.(css|less)$/],
cacheExclude: [],
});
module.exports = mergeTrees([appTree, lessTree]);
