postcss-customprop-validate

yarn add @gojek/postcss-customprop-validate --dev

import validate from '@gojek/postcss-customprop-validate'

postcss([
  validate(/* options */)
])

Rollup

Add Rollup Plugin PostCSS to your build tool:

      ]
    })
  ]
}

List of options

Examples

import postcss from "postcss"
import validate from "@gojek/postcss-customprop-validate"

/** CSS with incorrect default values of custom properties */
const css2 = `.Danger {
  color: var(--color-red, red);
  border: var(--custom-border, var(--border-radius, 8px) solid var(--color-red, hsla(292, 56%, 33%, 1)));
}`

/** CSS custom properties JSON to validate values from */
const variables = {
  "--border-radius": "4px",
  "--color-red": "hsla(292, 56%, 33%, 1)",
  "--custom-border":
    "var(--border-radius, 4px) solid var(--color-red, hsla(292, 56%, 33%, 1))"
}

const logValues = arr => console.log(arr)

const process = await postcss([
  validate({ write: false, variables, callback: logValues })
]).process(css)

postcss-customprop-validate will read the CSS and log the result as:

[
  {
    path: { absolute path }, // the absolute path of the CSS file
    line: 2,
    key: '--color-red',
    current: 'red',
    expected: 'hsla(292, 56%, 33%, 1)'
  },
  {
    path: { absolute path }, // the absolute path of the CSS file
    line: 3,
    key: '--custom-border',
    current: 'var(--border-radius, 8px) solid var(--color-red, hsla(292, 56%, 33%, 1))',
    expected: 'var(--border-radius, 4px) solid var(--color-red, hsla(292, 56%, 33%, 1))'
  },
  {
    path: { absolute path }, // the absolute path of the CSS file
    line: 3,
    key: '--border-radius',
    current: '8px',
    expected: '4px'
  }
