Hello,

Thanks for the great work. I have been using it for production for a while. However, I was wondering if you would consider introducing a way to import/include other gcss files, it will come extremely handy with Mixins specially.

I think compiling/preprocessing* every gcss file first as text/template would be a good solution, so you can just basically do {{ template "mixinCollection" }}.

Of course, using text/template would allow not only just including other templates but brings the complete power of Go templates in gcss. A bit of a madness be extremely powerful nonetheless.

Is this something you'd consider adding if I put together a PR for it?

Has anyone gotten media queries working with gcss? Any '@' rules I try to use just get striped.

I've tried it with variables, nesting, and even just good'ol css.

I was using tabs in the .gcss file, and the output was missing selectors and brackets. No errors were thrown. Converting tabs to spaces will fix it.

I'm trying to use Gcss with polymer and some of the components require the use @apply in the CSS. Currently gcss strips these tags out when compiled. It would be helpful if when compiling gcss would ignore such tags.

To see an example of how these are used see https://github.com/PolymerElements/iron-flex-layout/blob/master/demo/x-app.html

Example gcss file

html, body
  height: 100%

body
  margin: 0

:host
  @apply(--layout-horizontal)
  @apply(--paper-font-body2)

[nav]
  @apply(--layout-vertical)
  width: 200px
  background-color: var(--paper-grey-300)

Generated css

html,body{height:100%;}body{margin:0;}[nav]{width:200px;background-color:var(--paper-grey-300);}

max-width: 100% will not parse and produces: max-width: 100%! (MISSING).

display:block will not parse and produces no output. spaces should not necessarily be required between rules but if they are, surely this should throw an error.

Code is not setup to run under modules, need to call go mod init ; go tidy.

Without space padding variables don't work within parentheses. If I pad them with spaces like this ( $url ) they work though.

GCSS:

$image-url: ../image/svg/footer.svg

$background-mixin($url)
  background-image: url($url)

#background
  $background-mixin($image-url)

EXPECTED:
#background{background-image:url(../image/svg/footer.svg);}

ACTUAL:
#background{background-image:url($url);}

I don't get it... is this some project to show that Go can be used to do such things or was this really solving a pain point...? Why not just use execute an external program like lessc? Usually compiling from the sever side is done just once.. so am I missing something?

Using the following GCSS I have a $base-fonts variable I have some common fonts defined, and I have custom fonts before and after the variable. The problem is when the variable is surrounded by static items the variable seems to get skipped.

GCSS file (surrounded variable)

$color1: #2e6580
$color2: #3a83a7
$color3: #509ec4
$color4: #75b3d2
$color5: #9bc9df
$base-fonts: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial

h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,.h1,.h2,.h3,.h4,.h5,.h6
  font-family: 'Droid Serif', $base-fonts, serif
  color: $color1
  a,a:hover,u
    color: $color1
    text-decoration: none
  small
    color: $color2

body
  font-family: 'Roboto', $base-fonts, sans-serif

footer
  margin-top: 10px

Produces

h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,.h1,.h2,.h3,.h4,.h5,.h6 {
    font-family: 'Droid Serif', serif;
    color: #2e6580;
}

h1 a,h1 a:hover,h1 u,h2 a,h2 a:hover,h2 u,h3 a,h3 a:hover,h3 u,h4 a,h4 a:hover,h4 u,h5 a,h5 a:hover,h5 u,h6 a,h6 a:hover,h6 u,.h1 a,.h1 a:hover,.h1 u,.h2 a,.h2 a:hover,.h2 u,.h3 a,.h3 a:hover,.h3 u,.h4 a,.h4 a:hover,.h4 u,.h5 a,.h5 a:hover,.h5 u,.h6 a,.h6 a:hover,.h6 u {
    color: #2e6580;
    text-decoration: none;
}

h1 small,h2 small,h3 small,h4 small,h5 small,h6 small,.h1 small,.h2 small,.h3 small,.h4 small,.h5 small,.h6 small {
    color: #3a83a7;
}

body {
    font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
}

footer {
    margin-top: 10px;
}

Removing the serif and sans-serif the $base-fonts works as expected.

Is there an option to indent with 4 spaces instead of 2? Getting invalid indents while compiling:

indent is invalid [line: 2]

The last commit was 2014. Issues do not seem to get answered.
Is it safe to assume that this project can be considered unmaintained?

Hi,

I'm trying to reference an external stylesheet from GCSS. Can it be done? Is there a way?

$font: 'Lato'
@import url("//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=" + $font)

body
  font-family: $font, sans-serif

Best regards,
Aleander Rødseth

$ printf '$a: black\n$b: $a\nbody\n  background-color: $b\n'|gcss
body{background-color:$a;}

I expected "black".
