houbie / lesscss Goto Github PK

I have stumbled over a bug (at least I think it's a bug, maybe I'm just using it wrong) when I try to compile the main.less file in the following directory structure:

The content of main.less:
@import '../../imports/import';

The content of import.less:
@import 'otherimport';

When I try to run it using your lesscss on the commandline (with main.less as the source) I receive the following error:

less parse exception: 'otherimport.less' wasn't found in ../../imports/import.less at line 1
extract
@import 'otherimport';

If I use the default/native/official lessc.bat it works without a problem.

When I run it using the gradle plugin I can see following message before I get above error message, if run in debug mode:

reading @import imports/otherimport.less
resolving imports/otherimport.less relative to <mypath>\lesscssbug\styles\main\content
Finished executing task ':lessc'

Shouldn't it resolve the otherimport.less relative to import.less, and without the added imports path?

My build.gradle looks like this:

lessc {
    sourceDir "styles/main/content"
    include "main.less"
    destinationDir = "$buildDir/css"
}

If I add "styles" to sourceDir it works, but having to do this doesn't seem right.

If my main.less is in the main-folder and uses
@import '../imports/import';
everything works fine. So the cause seems to be the use of more than one ../ in the path.

For the following structure:

The content in main.less is:
@import 'linked';

And the build.gradle looks like this:

lessc {
    sourceDir "styles"
    include "**/*.less"
    destinationDir = "$buildDir/styles"
}

Or on command line, in the project dir:
lessc --include-path styles main/main.less

I get the following error:

> less parse exception: 'linked.less' wasn't found
in main/main.less at line 1
extract
@import 'linked';

With this debug message:

09:57:19.564 [DEBUG] reading @import linked.less
09:57:19.565 [DEBUG] resolving linked.less relative to <pathToProject>\lesscssbug\styles

It does work if I don't add the --include-path but for the gradle build I have to add the sourceDir.

Thanks for fixing the other bug and also for providing an active project which uses the most recent version of less.
