node-sass-importer-local-override v1.0.1

Local Override for Node Sass imports

Allows you to override @import-ed files from vendor by placing them at correct path in local directory

To make it easier to undestand imagine a following example:

You have your SCSS that imports another SCSS from vendor library.

your-style.scss

@import 'path/to/vendor/style';

vendor/main.scss

@import './functions';
@import './variables';
@import './page/gallery';

// ... more scss

In this example if you want to override the page/gallery style, you'd have to clone vendor/main.scss, and update paths to local ones for styles you want to override.

By using this importer you'll be able to tell node-sass to check first your folder for file, and then if local doesn't exist, fallback to original.

So loading for function will work by checking and loading file from first existing path:

1. local/functions.scss
2. path/to/vendor/functions.scss

Installation

npm install node-sass-importer-local-override

Usage

According to node-sass documentation (https://github.com/sass/node-sass#importer--v200---experimental) add the importer function to node-sass options

const sass = require('node-sass');
const localOverride = require('node-sass-importer-local-override');

const vendorFolder = path.resolve('./vendor/package')
const localFolder = path.resolve('./src/package-overrides')

var result = sass.renderSync({
  data: scss_content
  importer: localOverride(vendorFolder, localFolder)
});
