PostCSS plugin that uses Eik defined import map files to transform bare import specifiers to absolute URLs in @import rules
npm install @eik/postcss-pluginPostCSS Eik plugin to support the use of import maps to map "bare" import specifiers in CSS @import rules.
``bash`
$ npm install @eik/postcss-plugin
`js
const postcss = require('postcss');
const plugin = require('@eik/postcss-plugin');
const fs = require('fs');
// CSS to be processed
const css = fs.readFileSync('css/input.css', 'utf8');
postcss()
.use(plugin())
.process(css, {
// from option is needed here`
from: 'css/input.css',
})
.then(function (result) {
console.log(result.css);
});
This plugin transforms "bare" import specifiers to absolute URL specifiers in
CSS modules by applying an Import Map ahead of time.
For a more detailed description of Import Maps, please see our Import Maps section.
The main target for Import Maps is to map import statements in EcmaScript Modules but it can be applied to CSS import statements too.
Given the following CSS:
`css
@import 'normalize.css';
body {
background: black;
}
`
when applaying the following Import Map:
`json`
{
"imports": {
"normalize.css": "https://cdn.eik.dev/normalize.css@8/normalize.css"
}
}
one will get a transformed CSS like so:
`css
@import 'https://cdn.eik.dev/normalize.css@8/normalize.css';
body {
background: black;
}
`
This plugin takes the following as options:
| option | default | type | required | details |
| ------ | --------------- | -------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| path | process.cwd() | string | false | Path to directory containing a eik.json file or package.json with eik config. |[]
| urls | | array | false | Array of import map URLs to fetch from. |[]
| maps | | array | false | Array of import map as objects. |
The plugin will attempt to read import map URLs from eik.json or package.json files in the root of the current working directory if present.
`js`
postcss()
.use(
plugin()
)
.process(css, {...})
.then(...);
The path to the location of an eik.json file can be specified with the path option.
`js`
postcss()
.use(
plugin({ path: '/path/to/eik-json-folder' })
)
.process(css, {...})
.then(...);
The plugin can also be told which URLs to load import maps from directly using the urls option.
`js`
postcss()
.use(
plugin({ urls: 'http://myserver/import-map' })
)
.process(css, {...})
.then(...);
Additionally, individual mappings can be specified using the maps option.
`js`
postcss()
.use(
plugin({
maps: [{
"imports": {
"normalize.css": "https://cdn.eik.dev/normalize.css@8/normalize.css",
},
}],
})
)
.process(css, {...})
.then(...);
If several of the options are used, maps takes precedence over urls which takes precedence over values loaded from an eik.json or package.json file.
ie. in the following example
`js`
postcss()
.use(
plugin({
path: '/path/to/eik-json-folder',
urls: ['http://myserver/import-map'],
maps: [{
"imports": {
"normalize.css": "https://cdn.eik.dev/normalize.css@8/normalize.css",
},
}],
})
)
.process(css, {...})
.then(...);
Any import map URLs in eik.json will be loaded first, then merged with (and overridden if necessary by) the result of fetching from http://myserver/import-map before finally being merged with (and overriden if necessary by) specific mappings defined in maps.
If you're using postcss-import make sure you update the plugins option.postcss.config.js
`js``
module.exports = (ctx) => ({
plugins: [
require('@eik/postcss-plugin')(),
require('postcss-import')({
// It needs to be added here as well to ensure everything is mapped
plugins: [require('@eik/postcss-plugin')],
}),
],
});
