Requirements

Installation

  1. Install the Bourbon gem using the RubyGems package manager:

    gem install bourbon

    Alternatively, you can install Bourbon with Bower.

  2. Install the Bourbon library into the current directory:

    bourbon install

    Pro Tip: You can target installation into a specific directory using the path flag:

    bourbon install --path my/custom/path/
  3. Import Bourbon at the beginning of your stylesheet:

    @import "bourbon/bourbon";

    It’s not recommended that you modify Bourbon’s files directly as it will make updating to future versions difficult, by overwriting your custom changes or causing merge conflicts.

    RubyGems: https://rubygems.org

    Bower: http://bower.io

Installation for Ruby on Rails 4.2+

  1. Add Bourbon to your Gemfile:

    gem "bourbon"
  2. Then run:

    bundle install
  3. Restart your server and rename application.css to application.scss:

    mv app/assets/stylesheets/application.css app/assets/stylesheets/application.scss
  4. Delete all Sprockets directives in application.scss (require, require_tree and require_self) and use Sass’s native @import instead (why?).

  5. Import Bourbon at the beginning of application.scss. Any project styles that utilize Bourbon’s features must be imported after Bourbon.

    @import "bourbon";
    @import "home";
    @import "users";

Installing with npm and using a Node-based asset pipeline

  1. Add Bourbon as a dependency:

    npm install --save bourbon
  2. If you’re using eyeglass, skip to Step 3. Otherwise, you’ll need to add Bourbon to your node-sass includePaths option. require("bourbon").includePaths is an array of directories that you should pass to node-sass. How you do this depends on how node-sass is integrated into your project.

  3. Import Bourbon into your Sass files:

    @import "bourbon";

    Pro Tip: Check out this example gulp project that uses Bourbon and Neat.

  1. Uninstall any Bourbon gem versions you already have:

    gem uninstall bourbon
  2. Reinstall the Bourbon gem, using the -v flag to specify the version you need:

  3. Follow the instructions above to install Bourbon into your project.
