I am trying to use the sass plugin of Netbeans, my .scss file require the compass library. It work well from the commad line:
compass compile
but in the Netbeans IDE I get the following error:
Sass::SyntaxError: File to import not found or unreadable: compass/utilities.
The load paths listed don't show the compass library.
How can I include the compass library to make the .scss compile in Netbeans?
Mac OSX, Netbeans 7.2, SASS 3.1.20, Compass 0.12.2
If you are using netbeans 4.7 and the builtin css compiler you can add --compass to the sass commandline options. Make sure you have ruby in your PATH. Also make sure you have your config.rb in the root of the project.

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:

In the past few week, I've started seeing errors when I try to run compass watch:
Errno::ENOTDIR on line ["60"] of /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/listen-2.8.0/lib/listen/listener.rb: Not a directory - /Users/nick/.compass/extensions/readme.txt/stylesheets
It will watch and compile the SCSS into CSS once and then I have to run compass watch again and get that error. When I run compass watch --trace, I get this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/s1cia842dusitol/compass-watch-trace.png?dl=0
My versions are Compass 1.0.1 (Polaris) & Sass 3.4.9 (Selective Steve)
I had the same problem when running compass watch in terminal because I was in the wrong directory. Are you running it in the same directory as the config.rb file is located at?
I fixed it by first navigating to the folder config.rb is in and then executing compass watch...
Best option I found was this: Failed to build gem native extension (installing Compass)
After that, I starting using http://mhs.github.io/scout-app/ and that worked fine. When I started a new job that uses Grunt, I ditched compass watch all together and used the grunt-contrib-sass plug-in to get the job done.
I get the following error when trying to get my project up on my mac.
LoadError on line 31 of /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb: no such file to load -- zurb-foundation
Note I have updated my gems, updated compass to the latest version, updated the foundation gem but I cannot get my stuff to compile. Also I tried creating a new project with the same settings but i get the same error.
What does your include look like? The library itself is just called foundation. On all my projects I include the path to my vendor files (usually bower_components) in my importPaths configuration, and include this in my main sass file:
#import 'foundation';
Is it possible to use singularitygs in sass format rather than SCSS format?
Both singularitygs and breakpoint seems to come with only SCSS format files. If I manually convert the provided files to sass format, will that work?
I tried setting default format to sass in the config.rb file but that just seems to cause errors when starting to watch.
In Compass projects, you can interchange .sass and .scss files in the same project. Import them normally and you'll be OK.
That being said, as of this writing, both require custom Ruby functionality so in order to actually use either Breakpoint or Singularity, you need to be using them as Compass extensions as prescribed in their respective README files.
I used a switch --syntax sass to format a project in sass rather than SCSS:
compass create {project name} -r singularitygs --using singularitygs --syntax sass
SCSS and sass format can be mixed in different files but the watch function will not automatically compile the other format. For instance, if you set the default format to sass then any save to SCSS files will not be automatically processed.
The main reason I was getting the errors were from trying to install extension for compass.app. I am not sure what I am doing wrong but just copying singularitygs and breakpoint to the compass.app extension folder creates error on compass.app as well as the compass command line execution.
I have compass installed but when I try to watch the SASS file I get:
Line 1: File to import not found or unreadable: compass/css3.
Is there a way I should reference to compass?
(using Windows 7)
If you want to use Compass from the command line, you should be using its own watcher instead of Sass's.
compass watch
If you're within the context of another Ruby app, then you'll need to make sure the Compass gem is properly required.
