Rollup Plugin Collect Sass

:sleeping: Tired: minimalist 'lightweight' libraries

:zap: Wired: feature-rich compilers with lightweight output

— Rich Harris, creator of Rollup

Why

Most methods for transforming Sass with Rollup operate on an individual file level. In JS, writing import './variables.scss' followed by import './header.scss' will create independent contexts for each file when compiled (variables defined in variables.scss will not be available in header.scss).

The common solution is to collect all Sass imports into a single Sass entrypoint (like index.scss), which is then imported once for Rollup. However, this solution is not ideal, because this second entrypoint must be kept in sync with the bundled components.

Instead, each component could import the exact Sass files it requires. This is especially useful for libraries, where modular components and CSS is desirable. To support this, two problems must be solved:

• Import bloat (duplicate Sass imports in the final bundle)
• Single context (variables defined in one import are not available in the next)

To this end, this plugin compiles Sass in two passes: It collects each Sass import (and resolves relative @import statements within the files), then does a second pass to compile all collected Sass to CSS, optionally deduplicating @import statements.

Features

• Processes all Sass encountered by Rollup in a single context, in import order.
• Supports node_modules resolution, following the same Sass file name resolution algorithm. Importing from, for example, bootstrap/scss/ Just Works™.
• Optionally dedupes @import statements, including from node_modules. This prevents duplication of common imports shared by multiple components, promotes encapulation and allows modules to standalone if need be.
• By default, inserts CSS in to <header>, although file output is supported as well with the extract option.

Installation

npm install rollup-plugin-collect-sass --save-dev

Usage

import collectSass from 'rollup-plugin-collect-sass'

export default {
    plugins: [
        collectSass({
            ...options
        }),
    ],
}

Options

importOnce

Boolean, if set to true, all Sass @import statements are deduped after absolute paths are resolved. Default: false to match default libsass/Ruby Sass behavior.

extensions

File extensions to include in the transformer. Default: ['.scss', '.sass']

include

minimatch glob pattern (or array) of files to include. Default: ['**/*.scss', '**/*.sass']

exclude

minimatch glob pattern (or array) of files to exclude.

extract

Either a boolean or a string path for the file to extract CSS output to. If boolean true, defaults to the same path as the JS output with .css extension. Default: false

If set to false, CSS is injected in to the header with JS.

extractPath

Another way to specify the output path. Ignored if extract is falsy.
