|
|
> Compile LESS files to CSS.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|||
|
|
This plugin requires Grunt `~0.4.0`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you haven't used [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) before, be sure to check out the [Getting Started](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how to create a [Gruntfile](http://gruntjs.com/sample-gruntfile) as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```shell
|
|||
|
|
npm install grunt-contrib-less --save-dev
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```js
|
|||
|
|
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-less');
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
*This plugin was designed to work with Grunt 0.4.x. If you're still using grunt v0.3.x it's strongly recommended that [you upgrade](http://gruntjs.com/upgrading-from-0.3-to-0.4), but in case you can't please use [v0.3.2](https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-less/tree/grunt-0.3-stable).*
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Less task
|
|||
|
|
_Run this task with the `grunt less` command._
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt [Configuring tasks](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks) guide.
|
|||
|
|
### Options
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### paths
|
|||
|
|
Type: `String` `Array` `Function`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: Directory of input file.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Specifies directories to scan for @import directives when parsing. Default value is the directory of the source, which is probably what you want.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you specify a function the source filepath will be the first argument. You can return either a string or an array of paths to be used.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### rootpath
|
|||
|
|
Type: `String`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `""`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A path to add on to the start of every url resource.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### compress
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Compress output by removing some whitespaces.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### cleancss
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Compress output using [clean-css](https://npmjs.org/package/clean-css).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### ieCompat
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `true`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Enforce the css output is compatible with Internet Explorer 8.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For example, the [data-uri](https://github.com/cloudhead/less.js/pull/1086) function encodes a file in base64 encoding and embeds it into the generated CSS files as a data-URI. Because Internet Explorer 8 limits `data-uri`s to 32KB, the [ieCompat](https://github.com/cloudhead/less.js/pull/1190) option prevents `less` from exceeding this.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### optimization
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Integer`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `null`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Set the parser's optimization level. The lower the number, the less nodes it will create in the tree. This could matter for debugging, or if you want to access the individual nodes in the tree.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### strictImports
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Force evaluation of imports.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### strictMath
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When enabled, math is required to be in parenthesis.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### strictUnits
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When enabled, less will validate the units used (e.g. 4px/2px = 2, not 2px and 4em/2px throws an error).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### syncImport
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Read @import'ed files synchronously from disk.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### dumpLineNumbers
|
|||
|
|
Type: `String`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Configures -sass-debug-info support.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Accepts following values: `comments`, `mediaquery`, `all`.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### relativeUrls
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Rewrite urls to be relative. false: do not modify urls.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### customFunctions
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Object`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: none
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Define custom functions to be available within your LESS stylesheets. The function's name must be lowercase.
|
|||
|
|
In the definition, the first argument is the less object, and subsequent arguments are from the less function call.
|
|||
|
|
Values passed to the function are types defined within less, the return value may be either one of them or primitive.
|
|||
|
|
See the LESS documentation for more information on the available types.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### report
|
|||
|
|
Choices: `'min'`, `'gzip'`
|
|||
|
|
Default: `'min'`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Either report only minification result or report minification and gzip results.
|
|||
|
|
This is useful to see exactly how well clean-css is performing but using `'gzip'` will make the task take 5-10x longer to complete. [Example output](https://github.com/sindresorhus/maxmin#readme).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### sourceMap
|
|||
|
|
Type: `Boolean`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Default: `false`
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Enable source maps.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#### sourceMapFilename
|
|||
|
|

|||
|
|

Override the default url that points to the sourcemap from the compiled css file.

|
|
|

|

|
|||
|

|
