css-copy-assets-stream #

A parcelify transform that copies the assets defined in a css file.

It parses .css and .scss, looking for local url references url('...'). When found, it copies the source files to a specified output directory of your choosing. (Ideally output should be where your bundle.css goes, then the references remain intact.)

NOTE:
This project was developed for my personal use-case, and is not fully fledged at this point. Pull requests are more than welcome though.

example #

``javascript
var cssStream = require('..')
var fs = require('fs')
var path = require('path')

var inputFile = path.join(__dirname, 'sample.css')

fs.createReadStream(inputFile)
.pipe(cssStream(inputFile, {output: 'output'}))
.pipe(process.stdout)

`

Why does output have such a weird default value? #


build/style/css is where bundle.css goes in my personal project. The reason it is written in stone like that is because you cannot specify transform options in package.json, which is where I prefer to specify my transform. this bug explains it. I am trying to get it reopened.

TODO #

- Better default value for output`
- Remove dependency on shelljs
