Inside my component I'd like to add a modifier, which should have a higher specification so my output should look like this:
Wanted output:
.component {
// ...
}
.component.component--modifier {
// ...
}
SCSS Suggestion:
.component {
// ...
&.&--modifier {
// ...
}
}
But this does not work, I'm getting compile errors: Kind of "format errors" or "invalid CSS".
You could define a mixin:
#mixin mod($n) {
.#{$n} {
color: blue;
}
.#{$n}.#{$n}--modifier {
color: red;
}
}
#include mod(component);
Output:
.component {
color: blue;
}
.component.component--modifier {
color: red;
}
But there's probably a more raisonnable approach to your real problem, like having a modifier class.
You have a period next to the & (&.&). This would produce component..component--modifier, which is incorrect(two periods). What you really want is && but sass doesn't let you do this. What you want to do is escape the second & like this:
&#{&}--modifier
A simpler solution is to interpolate the second & by putting it into #{&}:
.component {
// ...
&#{&}--modifier {
// ...
}
}
Note: The dot between the two & is not needed, because & contains it already.
An equivalent mixin related to Densys would be:
#mixin modifier($modifier) {
&#{&}--#{$modifier} {
#content;
}
}
Usage:
.component {
#include modifier(breadcrumb) {
// ...
}
}

Sorry for the bad title, not sure how to name it.
While I'm compiling my scss, this:
.foo {
...
&__bar { ... }
}
it turns into code below, which is what you would expect:
.foo { ... }
.foo__bar { ... }
My problem is that I need it to be this way:
.foo { ... }
.foo .foo__bar { ... }
with .foo selector before .foo__bar.
Is there any Webpack plugin or other solution that would help to solve my problem?
I've found two ways to achive that, but I'm wondering if there's something that would save me from additional code:
.foo {
...
& &__bar { ... }
}
// or
.foo {
...
.foo__bar { ... }
}
If you intend to get this
.foo { ... }
.foo .foo__bar { ... }
You need to write your scss like this :
.foo {
......
&.foo__bar {
.......
}
}
Please try this and see if it works ?
I want to create a sass file that the selectors will be attribute selectors.
When I work with class selectors, in most of the cases I will do
.parent {
&-child {
}
}
which gives me the following css: .parent-child {}.
I want to achieve the same thing with attribute selectors:
[data-parent] {
&-child {
}
}
which I want to become: [data-parent-child] {}
someone knows how to achieve this? thanks.
You can use this mixin as a workaround to get the desired result.
#mixin child-attribute($child) {
$string: inspect(&);
$original: str-slice($string, 3, -4);
#at-root #{ selector-replace(&, &, "[#{$original}#{$child}]" ) } {
#content;
}
}
The code simply does the following
$string variable is responsible for turning the parent selector to a string using the inspect function
$original variable is responsible for getting the text content of the $string variable i.e the value 'data-parent' from '([data-parent])'
selector-replace function then replaces the parent selector with the concatenation of the $original variable and child variable
When used in the following ways
[data-parent] {
#include child-attribute('-child') {
color: green;
}
}
The css output
[data-parent-child] {
color: green;
}
Depending on what you want to achieve, it can also be used like this
[grandparent] {
#include child-attribute('-parent') {
color: white;
#include child-attribute('-child') {
color: blue;
}
}
}
Which generates the following css
[grandparent-parent] {
color: white;
}
[grandparent-parent-child] {
color: blue;
}
Hope this helps you
You can create mixin that will set styles for elements with data attribytes.
Scss:
#mixin data($name) {
[data-#{$name}] {
#content;
}
}
* {
#include data('lol') {
color: red;
};
}
Css output:
* [data-lol] {
color: red;
}
DEMO
I would go down a slightly different route of having a class on your elements that contain the data attributes.
<div class="data-obj" data-parent="true"></div>
<div class="data-obj" data-parent-child="true"></div>
then in your SASS do
.data-obj {
...
&[data-parent] { ... }
&[data-parent-child] { ... }
}
I'm trying to create a simple mixin in LESS for different colors I'll use for a website.
What i want is use mixin argument as a part of class name as well.
#green: #5FBEAA; // my color variable
.text-color(#color) {
.text-{#color} {
color: #color;
}
}
.text-color(#green);
The output i'm getting is:
.text-#5FBEAA {
color:#5FBEAA
}
What I want is:
.text-green {
color:#5FBEAA
}
I think I have the solution using Variable Names.
Less
#green: #5FBEAA;
.text-color(#colorname) {
#color: ~"#{colorname}";
.text-#{color}{
color: ##color;
}
}
.text-color(green);
Output
.text-green {
color: #5FBEAA;
}
I don't think its possible. The closest solution for this will be using an additional variable.
#green: #5FBEAA;
.text-color(#name,#color) {
.text-#{name} {
color: #color;
}
}
.text-color(green,#green);
This will compile to
.text-green {
color: #5FBEAA;
}
I'm refactoring some of my Sass code and I came across a weird issue. My code currently looks like this:
// household
$household_Sector: 'household';
$household_BaseColor: #ffc933;
// sports
$sports_Sector: 'sports';
$sports_BaseColor: #f7633e;
// the mixin to output all sector specific css
#mixin sector-css($sector_Sector,$sector_BaseColor) {
.sector-#{$sector_Sector} {
&%baseColor {
background-color: $sector_BaseColor;
}
}
}
// execute the mixin for all sectors
#include sector-css($household_Sector, $household_BaseColor);
#include sector-css($sports_Sector, $sports_BaseColor);
.product-paging {
h2 {
#extend %baseColor;
}
}
DEMO
The compiled result looks like this:
.product-paging h2.sector-household {
background-color: #ffc933;
}
.product-paging h2.sector-sports {
background-color: #f7633e;
}
But what I need is this:
.sector-household.product-paging h2 {
background-color: #ffc933;
}
.sector-sports.product-paging h2 {
background-color: #f7633e;
}
What I don't understand is why my placeholder (&%baseColor) isn't attached to the parent selector (&%baseColor) as I added the ampersand right in front of it?
Is this maybe a bug when combining & and %? Is there another solution on how to achieve what I want?
EDIT
Alright I figured out why this isn't possible. Anyway is there a workaround for what I'd like to achieve?
Extends, as you've already discovered, can get rather messy. I would go about solving your problem by using an #content aware mixin in combination with global variables (this uses mappings, which are part of 3.3... you can do it with lists of lists, but it's a little less elegant):
$base-color: null; // don't touch
$accent-color: null; // don't touch
$sections:
( household:
( base-color: #ffc933
, accent-color: white
)
, sports:
( base-color: #f7633e
, accent-color: white
)
);
// the mixin to output all sector specific css
#mixin sector-css() {
#each $sector, $colors in $sections {
$base-color: map-get($colors, base-color) !global;
$accent-color: map-get($colors, accent-color) !global;
&.sector-#{$sector} {
#content;
}
}
}
.product-paging {
#include sector-css() {
h2 {
background-color: $base-color;
}
}
}
Output:
.product-paging.sector-household h2 {
background-color: #ffc933;
}
.product-paging.sector-sports h2 {
background-color: #f7633e;
}
Update: Since you want to guarantee that the sector class is always at the top, you just need to switch around a little.
#mixin sector-css() {
#each $sector, $colors in $sections {
$base-color: map-get($colors, base-color) !global;
$accent-color: map-get($colors, accent-color) !global;
.sector-#{$sector} {
#content;
}
}
}
#include sector-css() {
&.product-paging {
h2 {
background-color: $base-color;
}
h3 {
background-color: #CCC;
}
h2, h3 {
color: $accent-color;
}
}
}
I'm trying to loop through a list of values in Sass and use interpolation of the current key to dynamically output class names that utilize #include and #extend, respectively.
Here is a pen showing the problem, simplified. http://codepen.io/ghepting/pen/vBmLy
As you can see in the markup, I have tried including the "_" inside of the interpolated string as well as outside of it. Is there something I'm missing to work around this limitation of how Sass supports interpolation?
(Note: the OP's pen has disappeared. This is not the original code found in the pen, but a rough approximation of the problem)
$error-light: red;
$error-dark: darken(red, 10%);
$success-light: green;
$success-dark: darken(green, 10%);
$dialogs: error, success;
#each $d in $dialogs {
.#{$d} {
background: $#{$d}-light;
}
}
Interpolation doesn't work on mixins or variables at this point in time. You'll have to come up with a different way to achieve your goal.
As of Sass 3.3, you can use mappings for this purpose for variables:
$dialogs:
( error:
( light: red
, dark: darken(red, 10%)
)
, success:
( light: green
, dark: darken(green, 10%)
)
);
#each $name, $colors in $dialogs {
.#{$name} {
color: map-get($colors, dark);
}
}
And for functions:
#function green() {
#return lighten(green, 10%);
}
#function red() {
#return lighten(red, 10%);
}
#mixin my-bg($function-name) {
background: call($function-name);
}
.foo {
#include my-bg('red');
}
Alternative workaround (for a particular use case):
https://sass-lang.com/documentation/at-rules/mixin#passing-arbitrary-arguments
💡 Fun fact:
Because an argument list keeps track of both positional and keyword arguments, you use it to pass both at once to another mixin. That makes it super easy to define an alias for a mixin!
If you are interested in mixin interpolation because you have a group of mixins, like this:
//_mixins.scss
#mixin text-style-1($args...){ //sass here }
#mixin text-style-2($args...){ //sass here }
#mixin text-style-3($args...){ //sass here }
//_text.scss
.text-style-1 {
#include text-style-1;
}
.text-style-1-contrast {
#include text-style-1($contrast: true);
}
.text-style-2 {
#include text-style-2;
}
.text-style-2-contrast {
#include text-style-2($contrast: true);
}
We can take advantage of passing arbitrary arguments and use an alias for the group:
//_mixins.scss
#mixin text-style-1($args...){ //sass here }
#mixin text-style-2($args...){ //sass here }
#mixin text-style-3($args...){ //sass here }
#mixin text($mixin, $args...) {
#if $mixin == 'style-1' { #include text-style-1($args...); }
#else if $mixin == 'style-2' { #include text-style-2($args...); }
#else if $mixin == 'style-3' { #include text-style-3($args...); }
}
//_text.scss
$text-styles: 'style-1', 'style-2', 'style-3';
#each $style in $text-styles {
.text-#{$style} {
#include text($style);
}
.text-#{$style}-contrast {
#include text($style, $contrast: true);
}
}
Ran into this issue of trying to include an interpolated variable inside a mixin and was able to resolve it with placeholders:
%color-scheme-dark-bg-1 { background-color: #4e5163; }
%color-scheme-dark-color-1 { color: #4e5163 !important; }
%color-scheme-light-bg-1 { background-color: #c7c8ce; }
%color-scheme-dark-bg-2 { background-color: #fd6839; }
%color-scheme-dark-color-2 { color: #fd6839 !important; }
%color-scheme-light-bg-2 { background-color: #fecfc1; }
.card_color {
#mixin CardColorScheme($arg: 1) {
.borderPercent {
#extend %color-scheme-dark-bg-#{$arg};
}
.border {
#extend %color-scheme-light-bg-#{$arg};
}
ul li:before {
#extend %color-scheme-dark-color-#{$arg};
}
.percent {
#extend %color-scheme-dark-color-#{$arg};
}
.heading {
#extend %color-scheme-dark-color-#{$arg};
}
}
&--scheme {
&-1 {
#include CardColorScheme(1);
}
&-2 {
#include CardColorScheme(2);
}
}
}
