To install as a development dependency, run:
``bash`
npm install --save-dev node-bourbon
If you need it in production, replace --save-dev with --save.
To use node-bourbon with tools like gulp.js, Grunt, or directly with node-sass, provide the path to Bourbon in your Sass config. There are a couple of convenience methods for this, depending on whether you want Sass to include additional directories or not.
The with() function will include any additional paths you pass as arguments.
Returns an array of paths.
`javascript`
var bourbon = require('node-bourbon');
// Any of these will return an array of Bourbon paths plus your custom path(s)
bourbon.with('path/to/stylesheets')
bourbon.with('path/to/stylesheets1', 'path/to/stylesheets2')
bourbon.with(['path/to/stylesheets1', 'path/to/stylesheets2'])
The includePaths property returns an array of Bourbon's paths to use in your config.
`javascript`
var bourbon = require('node-bourbon');
bourbon.includePaths // Array of Bourbon paths
Use either method above with the Sass config for your chosen tool (gulp.js, Grunt, etc.), then it's business as usual for Bourbon in your stylesheet:
`scss`
@import "bourbon";
Using the gulp-sass plugin.
`javascript
var gulp = require('gulp');
var sass = require('gulp-sass');
gulp.task('sass', function () {
gulp.src('path/to/input.scss')
.pipe(sass({
// includePaths: require('node-bourbon').with('other/path', 'another/path')
// - or -
includePaths: require('node-bourbon').includePaths
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('path/to/output.css'));
});
`
The grunt-sass task uses
node-sass
(LibSass) underneath, and is the recommended
way to use Grunt with node-bourbon.
Example config:
`javascript`
grunt.initConfig({
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
// includePaths: require('node-bourbon').with('other/path', 'another/path')
// - or -
includePaths: require('node-bourbon').includePaths
},
files: {
'path/to/output.css': 'path/to/input.scss'
}
}
}
});
If you are using the Ruby version of Sass with node-bourbon, then you will need to use
the grunt-contrib-sass task instead.
Note that node-bourbon is __NOT__ tested against the __Ruby__ version – only against __LibSass__.
Example config:
`javascript`
grunt.initConfig({
sass: {
dist: {
options: {
// loadPath: require('node-bourbon').with('other/path', 'another/path')
// - or -
loadPath: require('node-bourbon').includePaths
},
files: {
'path/to/output.css': 'path/to/input.scss'
}
}
}
});
Using it directly with node-sass.
`javascript
var sass = require('node-sass')
var bourbon = require('node-bourbon');
sass.render({
file: './application.scss',
success: function(css){
console.log(css);
},
error: function(error) {
console.log(error);
},
// includePaths: bourbon.with('other/path', 'another/path'),
// - or -
includePaths: bourbon.includePaths,
outputStyle: 'compressed'
});

Feel free to tweet me with questions @iamlacroix, or open a ticket on GitHub.
node-bourbon is tested against the examples provided in the
Bourbon documentation. The tests check for compile
errors, so if a feature compiles but the expected output is incorrect, be sure
to open a ticket.
Run the tests with:
```
make test
