@adobe/css-tools

This is a fork of the npm css package due to low maintenance

CSS parser / stringifier.

Installation

$ npm install @adobe/css-tools

Usage

import { parse, stringify } from '@adobe/css-tools'
let obj = parse('body { font-size: 12px; }', options);
let css = stringify(obj, options);

API

parse(code, [options])

Accepts a CSS string and returns an AST object.

options:

silent: silently fail on parse errors.
source: the path to the file containing css. Makes errors and source maps more helpful, by letting them know where code comes from.

stringify(object, [options])

Accepts an AST object (as css.parse produces) and returns a CSS string.

options:

indent: the string used to indent the output. Defaults to two spaces.
compress: omit comments and extraneous whitespace.

Example

var ast = parse('body { font-size: 12px; }', { source: 'source.css' });

var css = stringify(ast);

Errors

Errors thrown during parsing have the following properties:

message: String. The full error message with the source position.
reason: String. The error message without position.
filename: String or undefined. The value of options.source if passed to css.parse. Otherwise undefined.
line: Integer.
column: Integer.
source: String. The portion of code that couldn't be parsed.

When parsing with the silent option, errors are listed in the parsingErrors property of the stylesheet node instead of being thrown.

If you create any errors in plugins such as in rework, you must set the same properties for consistency.

AST

Common properties

All nodes have the following properties.

position

Information about the position in the source string that corresponds to the node.

Object:

start: Object:
- line: Number.
- column: Number.
end: Object:
- line: Number.
- column: Number.
source: String or undefined. The value of options.source if passed to css.parse. Otherwise undefined.
content: String. The full source string passed to css.parse.

The line and column numbers are 1-based: The first line is 1 and the first column of a line is 1 (not 0).

The position property lets you know from which source file the node comes from (if available), what that file contains, and what part of that file was parsed into the node.

type

String. The possible values are the ones listed in the Types section below.

parent

A reference to the parent node, or null if the node has no parent.
