C++ tool/library to convert indented sass syntax to the newer scss syntax. This was initially a port of a previous perl implementation. Its primary intention was to bring indented sass syntax support to libsass. sass2scss is included in libsass since version 2.0.

I added around 60 unit tests for sass2sccs to the libsass perl binding CSS-Sass.

sass2scss [options] < file.sass

-p, --pretty       pretty print output
-c, --convert      convert src comments
-s, --strip        strip all comments
-k, --keep         keep all comments
-h, --help         help text
-v, --version      version information

The source Sass is read from stdin and the resulting SCSS is printed to stdout.

--pretty can be repeated up to 3 times to add even more linefeeds (lf).

• 0: Write everything on one line (minimized)
• 1: Add lf after opening bracket (lisp style)
• 2: Add lf after opening and before closing bracket (1TBS style)
• 3: Add lf before/after opening and before closing (allman style)

The lisp style is the only output style that should not alter the line count of the input file. This is the best option if you still want to use source-maps, since it should only change the source by a few inserted chars. So far sass2sccs does not produce source-maps and libsass will not be able to produce 100% accurate source-maps for indented sass syntax input files!

The original Sass file, called styles.sass:

#main
  // This is the best color since it has a specific meaning
  color: rebeccapurple
  font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3", "Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro", Osaka
  font-size: 75%

For example with default options, running

sass2scss < styles.sass > styles.scss

Would result the file styles.scss to look like:

#main { color: rebeccapurple;font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3", "Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro", Osaka;font-size: 75%; }

When adding options for pretty printing (-p) and keeping comments (-k):

#main {
  // This is the best color since it has a specific meaning
  color: rebeccapurple;
  font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3", "Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro", Osaka;
  font-size: 75%; }

With two pretty (-p -p) and comment conversion (-c) options, the output becomes:

#main {
  /* This is the best color since it has a specific meaning */
  color: rebeccapurple;
  font-family: "ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3", "Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro", Osaka;
  font-size: 75%;
}
