Mix tasks for installing and invoking sass.

Installation

If you are going to build assets in production, then you add dart_sass as a dependency on all environments but only start it in dev:

def deps do
  [
    {:dart_sass, "~> 0.1", runtime: Mix.env() == :dev}
  ]
end

However, if your assets are precompiled during development, then it only needs to be a dev dependency:

def deps do
  [
    {:dart_sass, "~> 0.1", only: :dev}
  ]
end

Once installed, change your config/config.exs to pick your dart_sass version of choice:

config :dart_sass, version: "1.36.0"

Now you can install dart-sass by running:

$ mix sass.install

And invoke sass with:

$ mix sass default assets/css/app.scss priv/static/assets/app.css

If you need additional load paths you may specify them:

$ mix sass default assets/css/app.scss --load-path=assets/node_modules/bulma priv/static/assets/app.css

The executable may be kept at _build/sass. However in most cases running dart-sass requires two files: the portable Dart VM is kept at _build/dart and the Sass snapshot is kept at _build/sass.snapshot.

Profiles

The first argument to dart_sass is the execution profile. You can define multiple execution profiles with the current directory, the OS environment, and default arguments to the dart_sass task:

config :dart_sass,
  version: "1.36.0",
  default: [
    args: ~w(css/app.scss ../priv/static/assets/app.css),
    cd: Path.expand("../assets", __DIR__)
  ]

When mix sass default is invoked, the task arguments will be appended to the ones configured above.

Adding to Phoenix

To add dart_sass to an application using Phoenix, you need only four steps.

First add it as a dependency in your mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:dart_sass, "~> 0.1", runtime: Mix.env() == :dev}
  ]
end

Now let’s configure dart_sass to use assets/css/app.scss as the input file and compile CSS to the output location priv/static/assets/app.css:

config :dart_sass,
  version: "1.36.0",
  default: [
    args: ~w(css/app.scss ../priv/static/assets/app.css),
    cd: Path.expand("../assets", __DIR__)
  ]

Make sure the “assets” directory from priv/static is listed in the :only option for Plug.Static in your endpoint file at, for instance lib/my_app_web/endpoint.ex.

For development, we want to enable watch mode. So find the watchers configuration in your config/dev.exs and add:

  sass: {DartSass, :install_and_run, [:default, ~w(--embed-source-map --watch)]}

Note we are embedding source maps and enabling the file system watcher.

Finally, back in your mix.exs, make sure you have an assets.deploy alias for deployments, which will also use the --style=compressed option:

"assets.deploy": ["sass default --style=compressed", "phx.digest"]
