I wanted to start a project with Sass / Compass and for grid I want to use susy.
Installed sass -v 3.4.24
Compass 1.0.3
All good and working. After I installed susy 3.0.6 and not working then I tried 2.2.12, and use the simple code body { #include container(80em); }
I get the Undefined mixin 'container' all the time.
What do i do wrong?
I don't recommend using Compass, since it is no longer maintained and Susy 3 no longer supports it. With Susy 2, it should work, but you will have to require and import Susy before it will work. Installing is not enough.
There are some brief instructions in the Susy docs.
Specifically, those commands add a require 'susy' line to the compass config, and an import 'susy' line in the Sass/Scss.
Since Compass is no longer maintained, I'm a bit fuzzy on exactly how the config/require is supposed to look.

ColorZilla's gradient editor says
// needs latest Compass, add '#import "compass"' to your scss
Well I've found that's not so easy. Obviously if you just throw #import "compass"; at the top of your .scss file, Sass won't compile because _compass.scss can't be found.
This is an asp.net project utilizing Sass. In addition, I have to use the sass ruby gem to compile, not compass's compiler.
I've installed the compass gem. I've followed the instructions on http://compass-style.org/install/. I've run compass init, compass create, compass install. None of them even give me compass's mixins.
I expected this to work like bourbon, though I know this isn't compass's primary goal.
What am I missing?
Install the library
bower install compass-sass-mixins
Import the compass into your SASS file
#import "bower_components/compass-sass-mixins/lib/compass"
Checkout SASS function list:

i've started a project with compass 0.12 and sass 1 and susy 1.0.9.Now i want to resume it and i done an upgrade for gems.So i have now newers versions for compass (1.0.1), sass (3.4.0, 3.2.12)
ans susy (2.1.3).
So i found a fix to use old syntax for susy 1,
#import "susyone";
but i still get errors for compass:
(Line 280 of /var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/compass-core-1.0.1/stylesheets/compass/_support.scss: List index is 2 but list is only 1 item long for `nth')
This nth is used for an additional buttons styles.So i don't find other ways to fix this.
Can i specify a compass version to use ?
Thanks
This seems to be the same issue documented on github here and in Compass here. I'm not sure about any work-arounds at this point, besides turning off grid-image output for the time being.
I have a very simple gulp based test environment using only sass and the susy2 gem - no compass because compass is no longer a dependency of susy 2
The error i'm getting is
...sass/susy/language/susy/settings:8:error: error reading values after container
line 8 of the problem file, susy's settings is as follows:
#include susy-defaults((
container: auto, <- line 8
math: fluid,
output: float,
container-position: center,
gutter-position: after,
global-box-sizing: content-box,
debug: (
image: hide,
color: rgba(#66f, .25),
output: background,
toggle: top right,
inspect: false,
),
));
I'm using sass version 3.4, which should support the sass maps syntax, and gulp-sass version 0.7.3. along with susy 2.1.3.
Any idea why im getting this error?
You must update SASS to later than 3.3. Current version of SASS as of this writing is 3.4.1 Selective Steve. Type sass -v in your terminal (assuming OSX) to see what version of SASS you are currently on.
gulp-sass is actually a wrapper around Node-sass, which again is a library
that provides binding for Node.js to libsass, the C version of the popular
stylesheet preprocessor, Sass.
It allows you to natively compile .scss files to css at incredible speed and
automatically via a connect middleware.
As this node-sass page says:
"..The libsass library is not currently at feature parity with the 3.2 Ruby Gem
that most Sass users will use, and has little-to-no support for 3.3 syntax.
While we try our best to maintain feature parity with libsass, we can not
enable features that have not been implemented in libsass yet."
So it does not matter which version of sass you have installed,
because gulp-sass is not using it.
The problem that arises with susy2 is that of, libsass currently not
supporting some of features susy2 exposes.
The way I resolved this issue, was using
gulp-ruby-sass instead of
gulp-sass, which is slower but more feature-rich. And will work with Susy2.
I created a project using yo webapp (with the generator-webapp installed obviously).
Everything is fine, but I'm still missing something. I'm sure it's such an easy answer that I'll never come back to SO because I'll be too embarrassed.
I want to use Compass, which comes out of the box with Yeoman, but I don't know how. I mean, obviously #import "compass...etc" inside any Sass files won't work since inside app/bower_components (the default path for Sass #imports specified inside Gruntfile.js) there's no compass directory.
What should I do now in order to import Compass stylesheets?
You can use compass just as you would usually do. If you set up a vanilla compass project with compass create, there is compass folder either. If you want to use any of the helpers compass ships with, you can import them just as described in the documentation, e.g.
#import "compass/css3";
.mybox {
#include box-shadow(red 2px 2px 10px);
}
main.scss
You would have to install grunt task for compass with npm install grunt-contrib-compass and adjust your Gruntfile.js to add a task for compass compilation.
It may appear not that easy since it has some tricky parts like to compile your sass to .temp/main.css to use for testing/livereload, and then minify it into your dist when doing final build.
The most easy way might be to just try another generator that has compass in a separate directory. For example angular generator has compass and even bootstrap for compass. It's pretty cool.
I'd love to use Bourbon with LiveReload but I can't seem to get them to work together. Anybody successfully made these two play nice?
If you use the 'Run a custom command after processing changes' option rather than the standard compilation option, then you can use the commands as detailed on the readme.
# Example (project root directory)
sass --watch stylesheets/sass:stylesheets -r ./stylesheets/sass/bourbon/lib/bourbon.rb
I wrote a blog post covering this.
If you install the latest version (3.0.0) of Bourbon and install bourbon into your compass sass directory:
bourbon install --path ./sass
You can then use LiveReload with one small tweak. You will need to replace LiveReload's version of SASS with at least 3.2.3, since Bourbon requires this.
Instructions on how to replace LiveReload's default SASS version can be found here: http://carl-topham.com/theblog/post/changing-version-sass-livereload/
This seems to work for me.
I've been told you can get it to work by passing the lib/bourbon.rb file into the "Run a custom command" option in LiveReload. See attached image.
