Grunt Watch: Need to Save Twice After Every SASS Error

When using grunt-watch while editing my SASS files, if I get a SASS error, I have to save twice after correcting the error for it to be resolved. Here's the sequence of events:
I include a mixin that doesn't exist in my SASS file and save
grunt-watch throws a SASS error
I fix the error and save
grunt-watch throws the same error
I save again
grunt-watch compiles correctly
Here's my Gruntfile.js:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// Configuration
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
imagemin: {
dynamic: {
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: 'assets/img',
src: ['assets/img/**/*.{png,jpg,gif}'],
dest: 'assets/img'
}]
}
},
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
loadPath: require('node-neat').includePaths,
style: 'compact',
lineNumbers: true,
cacheLocation: 'assets/sass/.sass-cache'
},
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: 'assets/sass',
src: ['*.scss'],
dest: 'assets/css',
ext: '.css'
}]
}
},
watch: {
options: {
livereload: true
},
css: {
files: ['assets/sass/**/*.scss'],
tasks: ['newer:sass'],
options: {
spawn: false
}
},
images: {
files: ['assets/img/**/*.{png,jpg,gif}'],
tasks: ['imagemin'],
options: {
spawn: false
}
},
js: {
files: ['assets/js/**/*.js'],
options: {
spawn: false
}
},
html: {
files: ['*.html'],
options: {
spawn: false
}
},
php: {
files:['**/*.php'],
options: {
spawn: false
}
}
}
});
// List plugins we're using
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch'); // Watch - http://goo.gl/yxNE0
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-imagemin'); // Image Minify - http://goo.gl/mkIRPE
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass'); // SASS - http://goo.gl/pCHySn
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-newer'); // Newer - https://goo.gl/3vBTnf
// Plugins to run when we run the 'grunt' command
grunt.registerTask('default', [
'imagemin',
'sass'
]);
};
Turns out that mysterious spawn option in Watch actually needs to be set to true for this particular instance. Like most people, I really have no idea how spawn works, but it fixes the issue.
watch: {
css: {
files: ['assets/sass/**/*.scss'],
tasks: ['newer:sass'],
options: {
spawn: true
}
}
}
You don't have to explicitly set the option to true, it's set by default so you can just not add it at all. I'm just including it here as an example.

grunt sass sourcemaps sass wrong path?

I have a grunt project set up but I'm missing the sourcemap for sass. The style.css.map looks like this:
{
"version": 3,
"file": "style.css",
"sources": [
"../style.scss",
"../_general.scss",
"../_align.scss",
"../_cf.scss",
"../_fixed-fluid.scss"
],
"sourcesContent": [],
"mappings": "ACAA;EACI,AAAQ;EACR,AAAS;;AAGb;EACI,AAAY;;AAGhB;EACI,AAAe;;AAGnB;EACI,AAAU;EACd,AAAe;IACP,AAAS;IACT,AAAS;IACT,AAAQ;IACR,AAAY;IACZ,AAAU;IACV,AAAM;IACN,AAAO;IACP,AAAQ;;AAIhB;EACI,AAAS;;AC3Bb;EACE,AAAU;EACV,AAAQ;EACR,AAAY;;AAGd;EACE,AAAU;EACV,AAAK;EACL,AAAM;EACN,AAAW;;AAIb;EACI,AAAS;EACT,AAAO;EACP,AAAY;;AAGhB;EACI,AAAS;EACT,AAAY;EACZ,AAAgB;EAChB,AAAQ;;AAIZ;EACI,AAAY;EACZ,AAAQ;EACR,AAAW;EACf,AAAgB;IACR,AAAS;IACT,AAAS;IACT,AAAQ;IACR,AAAgB;;AAIxB;EACI,AAAS;EACT,AAAgB;;AC3CpB,AAAG;EACC,AAAS;EACT,AAAS;;ACFb;EACI,AAAO;EACP,AAAO;EACP,AAAY;;AAGhB;EACI,AAAO;EACP,AAAO;;AAIX;EACI,AAAO;EACP,AAAY;EACZ,AAAO;EACP,AAAc",
"names": []
}
The 'sources' path is incorrect. It should be "../sass/style.scss" instead of "../style.scss"
Grunt project file:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
require('jit-grunt')(grunt);
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
connect: {
server: {
options: {
port: 9000,
livereload: true,
keepalive: true,
open: true,
hostname: 'localhost'
}
}
},
sass: {
options: {
sourceMap: true,
sourceMapEmbed: true
},
dist: {
files: {
'dist/style.css': 'assets/sass/style.scss'
},
outputStyle: 'expanded'
}
},
autoprefixer: {
single_file: {
src: 'dist/style.css'
}
},
watch: {
options: {
spawn: false,
livereload: true,
},
sass: {
files: ['assets/sass/*.scss'],
tasks: ['sass', 'autoprefixer']
},
html: {
files: ['index.html', 'views/*.html'],
},
js: {
files: ['assets/js/*.js']
}
},
});
};
Anyone know how to configure this sourcemap path correctly in my gruntfile? Thank you!
Source maps have been f***ed in grunt-sass for a while, since version v.18.0 (node-sass v2) I think. I am patiently waiting for the downstream changes from libsass > node-sass to make their way to grunt-sass soon. Node-sass v3 should fix these issues.
I suggest reverting back to version v0.17.0 of grunt-sass so source maps work again

Grunt not executing sass command

My watch command executes all my tasks except for sass. When I execute grunt sass, I receive the following message error:
Warning:
You need to have ruby and sass installed and in your path for this task to work.
I don't know why this message is showed because I can generate my .css file from the .scss through the Ruby console (sass --watch styles/scss/general.scss:styles/css/general.css), so I have both Ruby and sass installed.
My Gruntfile.js is the following:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// 1. All configuration goes here
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
concat: {
dist: {
src: [
'js/libs/*.js', // All JS in the libs folder
],
dest: 'js/build/production.js',
}
},
uglify: {
build: {
src: 'js/build/production.js',
dest: 'js/build/production.min.js'
}
},
imagemin: {
dynamic: {
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: 'images/',
src: ['**/*.{png,jpg,gif}'],
dest: 'images/optimized/'
}]
}
},
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
style: 'compressed'
},
files: {
'styles/css/general.css': 'styles/scss/general.scss'
}
}
},
watch: {
scripts: {
files: ['**/*.{png,jpg,gif}', 'js/libs/*.js'],
tasks: ['imagemin', 'concat', 'uglify'],
options: {
spawn: false,
}
},
sass: {
files: ['css/*.scss'],
tasks: ['sass']
}
}
});
// 3. Where we tell Grunt we plan to use this plug-in.
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-concat');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-uglify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-imagemin');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-compass');
// 4. Where we tell Grunt what to do when we type "grunt" into the terminal.
grunt.registerTask('default', ['concat', 'uglify', 'imagemin', 'watch', 'sass']);
};
My OS is Windows7. Any idea?
Try
var config = {
app: 'app',
dist: 'dist'
};
grunt.initConfig({
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
style: 'compressed'
},
files: [{
cwd: 'styles/scss/',
src: '*.scss',
dest: 'styles/css/',
ext: '.css'
}],
},
watch: {
sass: {
files: ['styles/scss/{,*/}*.scss'],
tasks: ['sass'],
options: {
livereload: true
}
}
}
};
and would be better to place all the grunt.loadNpmTasks at the top before the grunt.initConfig

grunt contrib-sass sourcemap enable

I can't get a lot of contrib-sass features to work in grunt. I dived into grunt a day ago and I found it really good.
Link to contrib-sass repo which says sourcemaps should be working:
https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-sass/commit/e85ee70ccb8839867172b57ca1378293291f8037
note: I have sass bleeding edge, and this feature works fine if I use: sass --watch --scss --sourcemap --no-cache with google chrome canary sourcemaps and Sass stylesheet debugging

Btw, as I said im totally new with grunt, if you find other bad practise in my code please let me know. Also great plugin names for ftront-end work always welcome, I saw there are many, only faminilar with a few contrib ones yet.
Note: Somewhy, a lot of sass options doen't work, for example: noCache, lineNumbers, debugInfo, outputStyle:'compact','expanded' (compressed, nested works oO)

As of today (07/10/2013):
If you install pre version of sass
gem install sass --pre
and grunt-contrib-sass package, your config file will allow to generate sourcemaps.
If you use compass try using compass: true option in sass task config block or loadPath
I was able to get this to work using the following:
* one note: the map file doesn't get tracked anywhere so I didn't realize it was rewriting it until I deleted a version of the map and then I noticed that it was writing the file.
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
style: 'expanded',
debugInfo: true,
sourcemap: true
},
files: {
'styles/styles.css' : 'styles/sass/styles.scss'
}
},
},
watch: {
css: {
files: '**/*.scss',
tasks: ['sass'],
sourceComments: 'normal'
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.registerTask('default',['watch']);
}
Just to provide this as an actual answer, sourcemaps aren't available in sass stable yet. They're being worked on in an alpha release. The original question referenced a commit message that noted the code was being future-proofed.
As of 6/24/2013, sourcemaps aren't available in grunt-contrib-sass or grunt-contrib-compass.
It's easy right now, SASS version 3.4.5 works with source maps very well and has some more options to set it up:
$ sass -h
Usage: sass [options] [INPUT] [OUTPUT]
Description:
Converts SCSS or Sass files to CSS.
[...]
Input and Output:
--scss Use the CSS-superset SCSS syntax.
--sourcemap=TYPE How to link generated output to the source files.
auto (default): relative paths where possible,
file URIs elsewhere
file: always absolute file URIs
inline: include the source text in the sourcemap
none: no sourcemaps
[...]
So you can configure your Gruntfile.js e.g. like this:
[...]
sass : {
dist : {
files : {
'example.css' : 'example.scss'
},
options: {
sourcemap: 'auto'
}
}
}
[...]
Now if you run grunt sass task source maps are generated automatically.

grunt says no "sass" targets found

I'm trying to set up grunt-contrib-sass so I can use grunt to handle sass-to-css compiling. I installed after scaffolding a basic grunt file with grunt init:makefile. When I ran grunt sass just to test stuff, Terminal returns a "no "sass" targets found."
My setup:
$sass -v returns "Sass 3.2.1"
$ruby -v returns "ruby 1.9.3p194"
the 'node_modules' folder contains 'grunt-contrib-sass'
based on the grunt-contrib-sass docs, my grunt.js file currently looks like this:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
lint: {
files: ['grunt.js', 'lib/**/*.js', 'test/**/*.js']
},
test: {
files: ['test/**/*.js']
},
watch: {
files: '<config:lint.files>',
tasks: 'lint test'
},
jshint: {
options: {
curly: true,
eqeqeq: true,
immed: true,
latedef: true,
newcap: true,
noarg: true,
sub: true,
undef: true,
boss: true,
eqnull: true
},
globals: {},
sass: { // Task
dist: { // Target
files: { // Dictionary of files
'main.css': 'main.scss', // 'destination': 'source'
'widgets.css': 'widgets.scss'
}
},
dev: { // Another target
options: { // Target options
style: 'expanded'
},
files: {
'main.css': 'main.scss',
'widgets.css': [
'button.scss',
'tab.scss',
'debug.scss'
]
}
}
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
grunt.registerTask('default', 'lint sass');
};
Any and all help is appreciated...thanks much!
Double check your closing curly braces. Your sass block is within your jshint block. Try this:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
lint: {
files: ['grunt.js', 'lib/**/*.js', 'test/**/*.js']
},
test: {
files: ['test/**/*.js']
},
watch: {
files: '<config:lint.files>',
tasks: 'lint test'
},
jshint: {
options: {
curly: true,
eqeqeq: true,
immed: true,
latedef: true,
newcap: true,
noarg: true,
sub: true,
undef: true,
boss: true,
eqnull: true
},
globals: {},
},
sass: { // Task
dist: { // Target
files: { // Dictionary of files
'main.css': 'main.scss', // 'destination': 'source'
'widgets.css': 'widgets.scss'
}
},
dev: { // Another target
options: { // Target options
style: 'expanded'
},
files: {
'main.css': 'main.scss',
'widgets.css': [
'button.scss',
'tab.scss',
'debug.scss'
]
}
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
grunt.registerTask('default', 'lint sass');
};
