Grunt plugin for css parse (https://npmjs.org/package/css-parse).
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1
If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
npm install grunt-css-parse --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-css-parse');
In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named css_parse
to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig()
.
grunt.initConfig({
css_parse: {
options: {
// Task-specific options go here.
},
your_target: {
// Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
}
}
});
Type: String
Default value: null
A String or Number object that's used to insert white space into the output JSON string for readability purposes. If this is a Number, it indicates the number of space characters to use as white space; this number is capped at 10 if it's larger than that. Values less than 1 indicate that no space should be used. If this is a String, the string (or the first 10 characters of the string, if it's longer than that) is used as white space. If this parameter is not provided (or is null), no white space is used.
Type: Boolean
Default value: false
Add the corresponding position in the css source file to each node.
In this example, the default options are used.
grunt.initConfig({
css_parse: {
dist: {
files: {
'dest/custom_options': ['src/custom_options.css']
}
}
}
});
Input:
body {
background: #eee;
color: #888;
}
Output:
{"type":"stylesheet","stylesheet":{"rules":[{"type":"rule","selectors":["body"],"declarations":[{"type":"declaration","property":"background","value":"#eee"},{"type":"declaration","property":"color","value":"#888"}]}]}}
In this example, custom options are used.
grunt.initConfig({
css_parse: {
options: {
space: 4,
position: true
},
dist: {
files: {
'dest/custom_options': ['src/custom_options.css']
}
}
}
});
Input:
body {
background: #eee;
color: #888;
}
Output:

"stylesheet": {
"rules": [
{
"type": "rule",

{

}
}
}
]
}
}
In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
