Source.scss -> Target.min.css about aspnetcore.sasscompiler HOT 7 CLOSED

Another design could be SourceTargetPairs []

Its not my use case but is more flexible.

{
  "SourceTargetPairs": [
  {
    "Source": "Styles/MudBlazor.scss",
    "Target": "wwwroot/MudBlazor.min.css"
  },
  {
    "Source": "Styles/MudBlazor1.scss",
    "Target": "wwwroot/MudBlazor1.min.css"
   }]
"Arguments": "--style=compressed",
}

Hi @mikes-gh,
We directly pass the arguments to the dart-sass executable that does the conversion and creates the .css file. This does however mean that if you use a folder as the source you can't specify the resulting filename. You currently can already specify a filename for both SourceFolder and TargetFolder and I think that should work the same, however I agree it is confusing to have Folder in the setting.

I've wanted to allow multiple source/target folders/files so I think the approach in the last comment, at that point we can also allow different arguments per folder (and have the arguments outside of the pairs be the default if it is not specified for a specific pair). I'll try to create something for this in the coming days.

@sleeuwen Did you ever allow multiple sources and targets? I don't see anything explicitly about that in the readme. This would be ideal for my project where some files need to go in a wwwroot/css folder but others need to live in a wwwroot/lib folder.

AFAICS Specifying a source filename gives an error that its not a folder. It would be great if I could compile direct to a min.css filename as currently I have to add a target in my build for that and its a bit messy.

The output even if setting compressed is still plain .css which is confusing as not many ppl have a minified css without a min in the filename

would you accept a PR for the SourceTargetPairs design or SourceTarget?

Or an even simpler PR for MinifiedFileExtension?

@sleeuwen We are going to create this feature in our own fork since we need it now. I would be happy to contribute it back to the original repo and use that, as our preference would be to continue to support this excellent body of work. Let me know if you're interested.
