Hi team,
I’ve tried to add
libsass in the project conf files since we need this library
to build the new-ui in Wok. Turns out there isn’t any
libsass package in Fedora & OpenSUSE repositories. I
came with three possible solutions to install this ui
build-only dependency:
Soloution 1:
-Install PyPi manager
(Python Package Index)
-Install libsass using
pypi during Kimchi/Wok setup (pip install libsass);
Solution 2:
-Install NVM;
-Install NodeJS and NPM;
-Install NodeJS libsass
port during Kimchi/Wok setup (npm install -g libsass);
Solution 3:
-Change .gitignore to
include the CSS files that were supposed to be generated by
Libsass and if the dev/contributor want to edit the CSS
files, instruct him/her to manually install libsass.
BTW, with solution 2 we
could also benefit from Bower (a front-end package manager
that I already mentioned few e-mails ago in the ML) that
could install Bootstrap Sass and Bootstrap-Select Sass
sources in the dev/contributor machine. i.e. no need for
“src/vendor” folder, it also ensures that the devs are using
the correct version of any of these libraries and we could
extend its use to other things like JS libs (jQuery-UI,
jQuery, Bootstrap JS) and UI tests (ESLint, Browsersync.io).
In the meantime I’m
sticking with solution 3 until the new-ui CSS is not
complete.
Regards,
Samuel
