- Some
@import
orders have been switched to don't broke Stylus parsing - Some .mixin have been rename to .mixin() for a better conversion
First of all, I've created a base script which made most of the conversion
node less2stylus.js
This convert every .less to .styl equivalent
Please note this less to stylus conversion script make a simple but easier to read syntax
Stylus do not require this but this script keep the braces, the semicolons & a variable identifier ($ instead of @ a la Sass)
Since less just have simple mixin, Stylus have @extend
Sass feature, so I've optimized some mixin call without args by replacing them with @extend. The stylus output will probably be lighter than the less one
Fixes of "parse error": I've change just some tiny stuffs. Mainly;
- url(data...) to url(unquote('data...'))
- same for microsoft filters
stylus --out _output index.styl
lessc index.less > _output/index.less.css
Since I've used @extend with less2stylus()
, I can do a simple comparison. So I modified a little bit the less code to be able to try comparision without @extend (it was hard since less has same syntax for class & mixins).
- By default, stylus does not include /* */ comments so there some differences but really not important
- The opacity() mixin is completly broken but it's not really a problem. It's just less than 10 lines. & Stylus nib extension have that https://github.com/visionmedia/nib/blob/master/lib/nib/vendor.styl#L240
- Some url('') have been changed to url(""), it's not a problem.
- Some color value have been optimized (e.g. : black to #000) or lowercased
Becareful, there is a sort of major with if a less mixin, which are also class name. So for some mixin called without args, you have to add the class name after the mixin declaration.
mixin() { // previously .mixin used as a mixin
//...
}
.mixin {
mixin()
}
Same Color functions return differents results e.g. :
- less lighten(#E0E3E4, 5%) => #eeeff0
- stylus lighten(#E0E3E4, 5%) => #e2e4e5
- sass lighten(#E0E3E4, 5%) => #eeeff0
The difference is no easily visible, but anyway, I've bumped this issue https://github.com/LearnBoost/stylus/issues/328 Compare the difference http://0to255.com/eeeff0 vs http://0to255.com/e2e4e5
Script replaces @font-face on $font-face
