less_node 0.2.1 less_node: ^0.2.1 copied to clipboard
Less transformer wrapped over nodejs. Build .css files from .less files.
Less integration for pub #
Less-transformer for pub-serve and pub-build.
Usage #
Simply add the following lines to your pubspec.yaml
:
dependencies:
less_node: any
transformers:
- less_node:
entry_point: web/builder.less
After adding the transformer your entry_point .less
file will be automatically transformed to
corresponding .css
file.
You need to have Less installed and available on the path, as a nodejs npm module.
Configuration #
You can also pass options to Lessc if necessary:
transformers:
- less_node:
entry_points:
- path/to/builder.less
- or/other.less
output: /path/to/builded.css
include_path: /path/to/directory/for/less/includes
cleancss: true or false
compress: true or false
executable: /path/to/lessc
build_mode: less, dart or mixed
run_in_shell: true or false
other_flags:
- to include in the lessc command line
- entry_point - Is the ONLY option required. Normally is a builder file with "@import 'filexx.less'; ..." directives.
- entry_points - Alternative to entry_point. Let process several .less input files.
- output - Only works with one entry_point file. Is the .css file generated. If not supplied (or several entry_points) then input .less with .css extension changed is used.
- include_path - see Less Documentation include_path.
- cleancss - see Less Documentation clean-css.
- compress - see Less Documentation compress.
- executable - by default 'lessc' as node npm work result.
- build_mode -
- less - command 'CMD> lessc --flags input.less > output.css' is used.
- dart - command 'CMD> lessc --flags -' with stdin and stdout piped in the dart transformer process. See build folder.
- mixed - command 'CMD> lessc --flags input.less' with stdout managed by the dart transformer process. See build folder.
- less - command 'CMD> lessc --flags input.less > output.css' is used.
- run_in_shell - in windows lessc.cmd needs a shell, so run_in_shell default is true for this platform.
- other_flags - Let add other flags such as (-line-numbers=comments, ...) in the lessc command line.
