How do you finally use @import?

remino opened this issue 9 years ago · comments

Using the simplest @import can be the most frustrating thing to do with sass-rails.

In one version, I can simply call @import 'common/variable', for example, yet in the other, I must explicitly include the extension @import 'common/variable.css.scss'. I'd figure sass-rails should be smart enough to do the former, but since updating to 5.0.4 from 4.0.5, it no longer works. Somehow, it'll look for common/_variable.css.scss (with the underscore), but it can't figure out the file extension.

I don't care about adding the extension or not, but I'd like to know once and for all, do I need to specify it or not? Can we add that answer to the README?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not very familiar with sass-rails, but .css.scss and .css.sass file extensions were deprecated in 5.0.0, maybe you'll have luck using the supported ones.

I see. Thanks for showing me this. The pattern I felt was going on for the asset file extensions was .output_format.input_format. But I guess someome thought since Sass partials aren't outputting files on their own, that it would be best to discard the .css part of those file names.
