I am wondering if it is possible to add .scss file in my component in Angular 2?
Let's say I have the following:
#View({
template: `
<div class="button" [ng-class]="{active: isOn, disabled: isDisabled}"
(click)="toggle(!isOn)">
Click me!
</div>`,
styleUrl: ['style.scss'],
directives: [NgClass]
})
Is compiling the scss file to css the only way to achive what I am trying to do?
Thanks
It is possible, but you need to make server able to support this type of files, e.g. compile them on the fly during request, or maybe take precompiled CSS files from cache. In any case, the response when you navigate to
GET /approot/component/path/style.scss
needs to be valid text/css type. By default no webserver is going to do it. It is totally possible with Express, Apache, etc. but it requires configuration.
Another option is to use styles instead of styleUrls and require SCSS with bundlers like webpack:
styles: [require('style.scss')]
Above should work, but the notation is not that nice.
Finally, I would probably go with
styleUrls: ['style.css']
... and use SCSS for development, making sure my watch/build task compiles scss->css and puts style.css just next to style.scss in the same directory (on in the dist, wherever it needs to be). So you work with SCSS and never touch generated CSS, which is there only to be consumed by app.
styleUrls for now must be only css files list, so you need to provide the name of .css file to apply for components, so simple to think about provide the name of compiled .css file from .scss file, I found very helpful link to make that and with very well explained example:
http://www.angulartypescript.com/angular-2-sass/
This even should work in long term, hopefully the angular 2 somehow support the .scss and internally compile it.
I recomend adding scss files through import:
import 'style-loader!./your-scss-file-name.scss';
make sure the file url is correct.

I'm trying to make my SCSS files more modular by splitting it into individual partial files. It's all well until suddenly I have a bunch of .css and .css.map files in my partials directory because I've, naturally, saved all of them, and the Sass watcher dutifully compiled all of them too.
How do I achieve a clean structure like Bootstrap's while not having to manually delete every partial .css files? Ideal scenario is that every time I edit and save the partial files, Sass watcher compiles only the main .scss file.
I'm using VS Code on Mac with a Sass watcher plugin. Is it achievable in this environment?
https://sass-lang.com/guide
A partial is simply a Sass file named with a leading underscore. You
might name it something like _partial.scss. The underscore lets Sass
know that the file is only a partial file and that it should not be
generated into a CSS file. Sass partials are used with the #import
directive. (#import is soon to be deprecated, with a move to #use and #forward instead. https://sass-lang.com/documentation/at-rules/import)
Thanks Arkellys.
Ideally you have a main .scss file, like style.scss for example, and then the other partials exist, like _header.scss for example.
Once you have a partial like that, it's prudent to import it in the main .scss file, at the top of the file. In this case, it would be #import 'header';
Notice that we do not import the underscore...
If you don't have any errors after this, and it's still not compiling then check whether you have properly referenced the compiled css in the head of your html.
I'm trying to suppress a specific error that is related to a SASS file in Visual Studio. I'll mention that everything works great, the CSS file is generated exactly as the SASS files should generate it, and even with this error on VS, so I think maybe it's a bug on VS.
Basically what I'm doing is that I have 2 SASS files that I declare some variables in them as settings for another SASS file that contains some mixins that work according to the settings file that provided in the context.
For exmaple, these are the 2 files for the settings:
_settings-ltr.scss
$bi-app-left: left;
$bi-app-right: right;
_settings-rtl.scss
$bi-app-left: right;
$bi-app-right: left;
And this is the file that uses those settings:
_mixins.scss
#mixin padding-left($distance) {
padding-#{$bi-app-left}: $distance;
}
#mixin padding-right($distance) {
padding-#{$bi-app-right}: $distance;
}
Now, basically the error says that the variable "$bi-app-left" is undefined (and "$bi-app-right" as well), and I'm really not defining these variables in the "_mixins.scss" file, I pass them to the context in some other SASS file, like this:
site.scss
#import '_settings-ltr.scss';
#import '_mixins.scss';
And it works great, except that error from VS:
My Question
How can I disable this error specifically, without disabling other SASS file errors?
This is because of how the VS SCSS editor resolves variables. It does so from the perspective of the file being edited; because the SCSS editor instance for _mixins.scss does not know how the imports are resolved in site.scss, it doesn't have a way to resolve this reference. If _mixins.scss had an #import chain up to the _settings-ltr.scss (or -rtl), then it would be able to resolve the variable and the error wouldn't be shown.
Similar feedback has been raised here as well. It would be worth opening a new feedback item to better describe the scenario (and also what you're using to compile SCSS, e.g. if you're using WebPack) so the team can prioritize this as a design change. It won't get addressed right away, but we do take the number of feedback items into account for prioritizing the backlog. (And I'd love to have more ammunition to make this feature a priority...)
Currently, there isn't a way in VS to disable a specific SCSS error. This could be another feature request, but it would be a low priority to implement.
I have activated intellisense for files declared elsewhere by referencing the main file (i'll name it mainfile at my example) that imports all the other using /// <reference path="./../mainfile" />.
The code should change depending on the nesting of the mainfile (replace with the name of your own starting file that imports everything else).
Also the difference between the scss file you are adding it. For instance for two folders deep ./.. for three ../.. and so on.
Another example. I usually name my starting file main and all scss files are two - three folder deep.
../../main
./../main
Sadly i did not find a dynamic way to reference the path based on unknown members of files. Also that line has to be added to every single file.
The solution above offers intellisense which sorts the error and you can see the values on hover, go to definition etc as well.
I've searched this question but cant fnd the right question I'm asking about.
I have an MVC project and there's some auto-generated css files that I dont use. I have a scss folder with a file a .scss file called _main-style.scss.
I have a another file that references these sheets, and I use
#import 'sections/main-style';
I'm following the same naming convention as the others.
I even right clicked and did compile. When I run on the browser, it still doesnt update. I inspect the element and the classes dont exist. It's like its not getting them at all.
Can someone help?
Thanks in advance.
From your description, seems like you know about scss and how to compile it to css.
I have an MVC project and there's some auto-generated css files that I dont use.
BUT, What do you mean by this?
Normally if you compile scss to css, and if that css is already linked with your document, It should update automatically
Turns out it needed a hard refresh
I am using sass with prepros compiler and sublime editor. I need to have each scss file complied with the same file name.
For example:
I currently have-
header.scss
content-top.scss
footer.scss
and they are all compiles into style.css to create one full style sheet.
I wish to have a style folder with
header.css
content-top.css
footer.css
which will be done automatically when saving and compiling like I normally do.
How can I accomplish this?
Thank you
Check this link out.
It states that you can adjust your project structure (in your case CSS folders) in project settings.
If I remember correctly you may have to buy it so that you can compile more than 4 or 5 Sass files, but I may be wrong.
Also check that you aren't "only" importing sass partials because of this:
Any Sass and Scss file (i.e. including partials) imported by another
file are not shown in the files list but they are still watched by Prepros.
The parent file is re-compiled whenever any of the imported files are changed.
I don't know why my filewatcher doesn't transpile certain scss files. I wanted to rename files that already existed to use them as partials. That worked fine for most of them but i couldn't rename all of them. When I tried to use "refactor->rename" there was a warning that the files would be used by another script but that was definitly not the case. I was not able to rename them in phpStorm so i renamed them in the directory manually. That worked but now no css files are created anymore. I tried to synchronize but that didn't help. My settings seems to be correct (see picture). Anyone had the same problem before and knows the solution?
When "Track only root files" option is on, the content of partials is merged into a single .css files when transpiling, so that a single css is generated instead of creating a separate css for each partial
