Sassy Data

Sassy Data is an eyeglass module which introduces functionality to import data from supported data formats to Sass maps or arrays. Currently, the supported data formats are:

• JSON
• YAML

Thanks to eyeglass-file-text for providing the functionality of reading files.

Installing

npm install --save eyeglass-sassy-data

# or

yarn add eyeglass-sassy-data

Then in your Sass files:

@import "sassy-data";

API

• read-file($filePath, $encoding: $sd-default-encoding) - Read the text of a file into a Sass string
• json-to-map($jsonAsString) - Convert a string containing JSON into a Sass map/array
• yaml-to-map($yamlAsString) - Convert a string containing YAML into a Sass map/array
• import-json($filePath, $encoding: $sd-default-encoding) - Read a JSON file and transform the contents into a Sass map/array
• import-yaml($filePath, $encoding: $sd-default-encoding) - Read a YAML file and transform the contents into a Sass map/array

Notes

• The default encoding for all files read can be set by overriding the $sd-default-encoding variable; the default is set to UTF-8. This encoding can be changed on a per-file basis by passing a value for the $encoding parameter in the function calls
• The file paths given should be relative to the Sass file calling the function (this does not mean the location of the Sassy Data function definitions)
