How would one generate SASS instead of CSS? about webfonts-loader HOT 9 CLOSED

Indeed. I use webfonts-generator under the hood and there is an option for SASS template as you can see here. I will integrate this in the next release.

This would be awesome to have SASS support!

I investigated a bit and opened this issue on the sass-resources-loader package. I'll update this issue with any further development. So for now, SASS is not supported. Hope I'll get it working soon.

I'll keep you guys updated!

Hi! Something new on this?

I'm interested in this package but I use SASS in my setup :(

from webfonts-loader.

Any reason you deleted my comment?
I was just interested about feedback to my loader which supports sass.

@jantimon no offense here, your comment added no value to the issue here, that's why I deleted it. I am more than happy if you want to help on this project ;)

I am always happy to help.
Actually both loaders do almost the same thing - just with different approaches.
The webfonts-loader follows the best practices how font used to be integrate for years.
The iconfont-webpack-plugin tries a different approach: it uses postcss ast together with webpack resolving, webpack file watching and webpack caching and is therefore compatible with less, sass, scss, stylus and vanilla css.

So according to this issue it might be the better choice for some scss users.

However it has less features. E.g. it removed obsolete fonts like ttf or eot as they aren't needed for modern browsers anymore:

But still I would like to know what disadvantages you see compared to webfonts-loader

from webfonts-loader.

@jantimon iconfont-webpack-plugin also doesn't work for people using sass. due to how sass tries to resolve the url() value.

from webfonts-loader.

SASS generation won't be supported in webfonts-loader for the time being as I can't find a viable solution to handle this.

Magic PRs allowing this are welcome.
