JINA BOLTON SENIOR PRODUCT DESIGNER SALESFORCE UX Sass Basics #2
…PREVIOUSLY IN Sass Basics #1 INTRODUCTION TO SASS COMMENTING NESTING
VARIABLES
Sass Basics #2 INTRODUCTION TO MIXINS PASSING ARGUMENTS CONTENT BLOCKS
MIXIN LIBRARIES
SASSMEISTER.COM
CSS Output SCSS .thingy { background: #eee; color: #444; }
@mixin module { background: #eee; color: #444; } .thingy { @include module; }
Sass SCSS =module background: #eee color: #444 @mixin module {
background: #eee; color: #444; }
You can nest selectors in a mixin.
CSS Output SCSS .thingy { background: #eee; } .thingy .this
{ color: #444; } @mixin module { background: #eee; .this { color: #444; } } .thingy { @include module; }
You can include mixins outside of rules…
CSS Output SCSS .this { color: #444; } .that {
color: #444; } @mixin module { .this { color: #444; } .that { color: #ccc; } } @include module;
…unless you directly define properties or parent selectors.
CSS Output SCSS Invalid CSS after "...lor: #ccc; }} ":
expected "{", was "@include module;" @mixin module { color: #444; &.that { color: #ccc; } } @include module;
You can include other mixins in mixins.
CSS Output SCSS .thingy { background: #222; color: #ccc; }
.thingy a { color: #fff; } @mixin dark-theme { background: #222; color: #ccc; } @mixin module { @include dark-theme; a { color: #fff; } } .thingy { @include module; }
You can pass in arguments.
CSS Output SCSS .thingy1 { background: #eee; color: #444; }
.thingy2 { background: #eee; color: purple; } .thingy3 { background: green; color: red; } .thingy4 { background: blue; color: #444; } @mixin module($text: #444, $background: #eee) { background: $background; color: $text; } .thingy1 { @include module; } .thingy2 { @include module(purple); } .thingy3 { @include module(red, green); } .thingy4 { @include module($background: blue); }
You can pass in content blocks.
CSS Output SCSS * html .thingy1 { display: inline; }
@mixin ie6-only { * html { @content; } } @include ie6-only { .thingy1 { display: inline; } }
With great power, comes great responsibility ;-)
Every time you use a Mixin, you output that code
again.
