class Sass::Plugin::Compiler

The Compiler class handles compilation of multiple files and/or directories, including checking which CSS files are out-of-date and need to be updated and calling Sass to perform the compilation on those files.

{Sass::Plugin} uses this class to update stylesheets for a single application. Unlike {Sass::Plugin}, though, the Compiler class has no global state, and so multiple instances may be created and used independently.

If you need to compile a Sass string into CSS, please see the {Sass::Engine} class.

Unlike {Sass::Plugin}, this class doesn't keep track of whether or how many times a stylesheet should be updated. Therefore, the following `Sass::Plugin` options are ignored by the Compiler:

Public Class Methods

new(options = {}) click to toggle source

Creates a new compiler.

@param options [{Symbol => Object}]

See {file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#sass_options the Sass options documentation}.
# File lib/sass/plugin/compiler.rb, line 37
def initialize(options = {})
  self.options.merge!(options)
end

Public Instance Methods

engine_options(additional_options = {}) click to toggle source

Non-destructively modifies {#options} so that default values are properly set, and returns the result.

@param additional_options [{Symbol => Object}] An options hash with which to merge {#options} @return [{Symbol => Object}] The modified options hash

# File lib/sass/plugin/compiler.rb, line 317
def engine_options(additional_options = {})
  opts = options.merge(additional_options)
  opts[:load_paths] = load_paths(opts)
  opts

# File lib/sass/plugin/compiler.rb, line 86
def on_updating_stylesheet_with_deprecation_warning(&block)
  Sass::Util.sass_warn("Sass::Compiler#on_updating_stylesheet callback is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use Sass::Compiler#on_updated_stylesheet instead, which is run after stylesheet compilation.")

Also aliased as: on_updating_stylesheet

stylesheet_needs_update?(css_file, template_file) click to toggle source

Compass expects this to exist

# File lib/sass/plugin/compiler.rb, line 324
def stylesheet_needs_update?(css_file, template_file)
  StalenessChecker.stylesheet_needs_update?(css_file, template_file)
end
update_stylesheets(individual_files = []) click to toggle source

Updates out-of-date stylesheets.

Checks each Sass/SCSS file in {file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#template_location-option `:template_location`} to see if it's been modified more recently than the corresponding CSS file in {file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#css_location-option `:css_location`}. If it has, it updates the CSS file.

@param individual_files [Array<(String, String)>]

A list of files to check for updates
**in addition to those specified by the
{file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#template_location-option `:template_location` option}.**
The first string in each pair is the location of the Sass/SCSS file,
the second is the location of the CSS file that it should be compiled to.
# File lib/sass/plugin/compiler.rb, line 185
def update_stylesheets(individual_files = [])
  Sass::Plugin.checked_for_updates = true
  staleness_checker = StalenessChecker.new(engine_options)

  template_location_array.each do |template_location, css_location|
    Sass::Util.glob(File.join(template_location, "**", "[^_]*.s[ca]ss")).sort.each do |file|
      # Get the relative path to the file
      name = file.sub(template_location.to_s.sub(%r\/*$/, '/'), "")
      css = css_filename(name, css_location)
      individual_files << [file, css]
    end
  end

  run_updating_stylesheets individual_files

  individual_files.each do |file, css|
    if options[:always_update] || staleness_checker.stylesheet_needs_update?(css, file)
      update_stylesheet(file, css)
    else
      run_not_updating_stylesheet(file, css)
    end
  end
end
watch(individual_files = []) click to toggle source

Watches the template directory (or directories) and updates the CSS files whenever the related Sass/SCSS files change. `watch` never returns.

Whenever a change is detected to a Sass/SCSS file in {file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#template_location-option `:template_location`}, the corresponding CSS file in {file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#css_location-option `:css_location`} will be recompiled. The CSS files of any Sass/SCSS files that import the changed file will also be recompiled.

Before the watching starts in earnest, `watch` calls {#update_stylesheets}.

Note that `watch` uses the [Listen](github.com/guard/listen) library to monitor the filesystem for changes. Listen isn't loaded until `watch` is run. The version of Listen distributed with Sass is loaded by default, but if another version has already been loaded that will be used instead.

@param individual_files [Array<(String, String)>]

A list of files to watch for updates
**in addition to those specified by the
{file:SASS_REFERENCE.md#template_location-option `:template_location` option}.**
The first string in each pair is the location of the Sass/SCSS file,
the second is the location of the CSS file that it should be compiled to.
