Use SASS Stylesheets

Hi,

I was looking into using SASS stylesheets on our application which runs on Tapestry version 5.7.3

I noticed that there is support for LESS using the less4j library. Has anyone been able to use SASS? I was expecting that there would be support for wro4j in tapestry but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Any pointers on how you would go about using SASS?

Thanks,
Chirag

Hi Chirag,

We successfully included SASS in our projects.

However, our implementation isn't open-source, and it's quite a specific
solution as we need to modify and compile different Bootstrap versions
depending on each request in a singular project.

Here's what we do:

We use https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gitlab.com/jsass/jsass__;!!NknhfzgzgQ!xfRj_6aqDejwJ6Tv6xNivkpDPnVgqLzyqamO-5QJfTIxalP6ay12LWb8fLwIDu9eWFZOJ5vcSxlEcuzO$<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gitlab.com/jsass/jsass__;!!NknhfzgzgQ!xfRj_6aqDejwJ6Tv6xNivkpDPnVgqLzyqamO-5QJfTIxalP6ay12LWb8fLwIDu9eWFZOJ5vcSxlEcuzO$>  to compile SASS to CSS.

Sadly, the underlying libsass is more or less EOL, as is jsass itself.

It didn't include a library for Apple Silicon, which we had to build and
add ourselves.

On the Tapestry side, we created SASS-specific variants of:

   - org.apache.tapestry5.commons.Resource
   - org.apache.tapestry5.services.AssetFactory
   - org.apache.tapestry5.services.assets.ResourceTransformer

You could checkout
org.apache.tapestry5.internal.webresources.LessResourceTransformer and how
it's contributed/used in Tapestry to see how to integrate something similar.

Cheers

Ben
