Styler

CSS Styler package for Laravel. Compiles Less/SCSS on the fly and supports serving cached content.

I wrote this particular package because I wanted something stupidly simple, and didn't want to 'watch' directories while I'm coding. Just recompile if the css has changed thanks.

Installing

To grab via composer, just add darren-nolan/styler on dev-master to your required packages.

"require": {
    "darren-nolan/styler": "0.0.2"
}

Features

  • SCSS and Less Compiling (Thanks to Leafo's SCSS and Less compilers.)
  • Raw CSS
  • Automatically switch between compilers based on file extension
  • Adjustable route to deliver the CSS

Setup

Firstly add the ServiceProvider to your app.php configuration

'DarrenNolan\Styler\StylerServiceProvider',

Push the configuration into your application and edit as required (under app/config/packages/darren-nolan/styler/config.php)

php artisan config:publish darren-nolan/styler

base_route defines the listening base URL. By default <your-app>/styler/*.(css|less|scss) is where you link for compiled styles.

compiler defines the compiler/driver to use to compile stylesheets with. By default auto will check against the file's extension and compile accordingly.

Compiler options

serve_from defines where this compiler should look for it's source files. By default app_path() . '/css' is used.

cache_folder defines where this compiler should store it's cached versions (if any). This folder should be created before use. Can be set to false to disable.

Special Compiler Options

less has format_option which is what the output should be compiled as. 'lessjs', 'compressed', 'classic' and null are valid. Check documentation

scss has format_option which is what the output should be compiled as. 'scss_formatter', 'scss_formatter_nested', and 'scss_formatter_compressed' are valid. Check documentation

The configuration file is fairly self explanatory. However hang on for some better documentation.

Coming at some point

  • Tests. Because tests are important.
  • Each compiler is handed it's driver configuration in an array, however auto needs to get SCSS/LESS configuration too, so this will be adjusted so that a driver gets access to all configuration.
  • Code cleanup. Because I've been at a buck's all weekend and in my current capacity, I'm sure this is messy as hell.
