Less-Mixins-Kit

A bunch of useful less mixins that help you write less faster.

Usage

1. Install via NPM:

    npm install less-mixins-kit --save

2. Include Less-Mixins-Kit in your sass file, remember the path must be relative:

    @import '../node_modules/less-mixins-kit/less-mixins-kit';

Mixins

1. clearfix

   A clearfix hack. A way for an element to automatically clear its child elements.

   Before using this mixin, I recommend you to try Flexbox Layout or display: inline first. They are better solutions.

    ul {
        .clearfix();
           
        li {
            float: left;
        }
    }

2. text-ellipsis

   Display an ellipsis('...') at the end of overflowed texts.

   Only available in block or inline-block elements. A specific width is needed.

    span {
        display: block;
        width: 100px;
        .text-ellipsis();
    }

3. user-select(@value: none)

   Add vendor prefixes to user-select property.

   Most of the time I don't add vendor prefixes in this "less-mixin" way because PostCSS can do it for me. But it is weird that PostCSS don't add vendor prefixes to 'user-select' property. So I have to add vendor prefixies myself.

    span {
        .user-select();
    }
       

   will complie to

    span {
        -moz-user-select: none;
        -ms-user-select: none;
        -webkit-user-select: none;
        user-select: none;
    }
       

   This mixin accepts a param and its value (default none) will be applied to the 'user-select' property.
