node-compass
Compass middleware for node.js & express.
Requirements
node-compass requires the compass ruby gem in order to compile compass.
This can easily be installed via Terminal.
$ gem update --system
$ gem install compassYou'll want to do that as a root user.
Installation
npm install node-compassUsage
The easiest way to use node-compass, is through express.js.
var compass = require('node-compass');
app.configure(function() {
app.use(compass());
});Changelog
Configuration
node-compass is highly configurable.
By default, node-compass expects your assets folder to be named public, and for
both your *.scss and *.css files to be in '/public/stylesheets/'. This can be changed
by passing an array of options to the middleware. To change the root assets folder, pass
an array with project in it.
For example, to change it to assets:
compass({
project: path.join(__dirname, 'assets')
});Configuration Options
