Compile SASS with PHP

cssphp is a cool tools to compile SCSS file in PHP.

SCSS is a CSS preprocessor language that adds many features like variables, mixins, imports, nesting, color manipulation, functions, and control directives.

scssphp is ready for inclusion in any project. It includes a command-line tool for running the compiler from a terminal/shell or script.

How to use it:

use the composer.json and add the following code



{
    "require": {
        "scssphp/scssphp": "1.2"
    }
}

{

"require": {

"scssphp/scssphp": "1.2"

}

then in the php file, add the following code to compile the sass fie



require_once "scssphp/scss.inc.php";
use ScssPhp\ScssPhp\Compiler;

$scss = new Compiler();

echo $scss->compile('
  $color: #abc;
  div { color: lighten($color, 20%); }
');

require_once "scssphp/scss.inc.php";

use ScssPhp\ScssPhp\Compiler;

$scss = new Compiler();

echo $scss->compile('

$color: #abc;

div { color: lighten($color, 20%); }

');

For a variable, you can add the setVariables function:



use ScssPhp\ScssPhp\Compiler;

$scss = new Compiler();
$scss->setVariables(array(
    'red' => 'false',
));
$sassfile="/path/to/scss/file";
echo $scss->compile($sassfile);

use ScssPhp\ScssPhp\Compiler;

$scss = new Compiler();

$scss->setVariables(array(

'red' => 'false',

));

$sassfile="/path/to/scss/file";

echo $scss->compile($sassfile);
