# PHP CSS Parser

[![Build Status](https://github.com/MyIntervals/PHP-CSS-Parser/workflows/CI/badge.svg?branch=main)](https://github.com/MyIntervals/PHP-CSS-Parser/actions/)

A Parser for CSS Files written in PHP. Allows extraction of CSS files into a data structure, manipulation of said structure and output as (optimized) CSS.

## Usage

### Installation using Composer

```bash
composer require sabberworm/php-css-parser
```

### Extraction

To use the CSS Parser, create a new instance. The constructor takes the following form:

```php
new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser($css);
```

To read a file, for example, you’d do the following:

```php
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser(file_get_contents('somefile.css'));
$cssDocument = $parser->parse();
```

The resulting CSS document structure can be manipulated prior to being output.

### Options

#### Charset

The charset option will only be used if the CSS file does not contain an `@charset` declaration. UTF-8 is the default, so you won’t have to create a settings object at all if you don’t intend to change that.

```php
$settings = \Sabberworm\CSS\Settings::create()
->withDefaultCharset('windows-1252');
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser($css, $settings);
```

#### Strict parsing

To have the parser throw an exception when encountering invalid/unknown constructs (as opposed to trying to ignore them and carry on parsing), supply a thusly configured `\Sabberworm\CSS\Settings` object:

```php
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser(
file_get_contents('somefile.css'),
\Sabberworm\CSS\Settings::create()->beStrict()
);
```

Note that this will also disable a workaround for parsing the unquoted variant of the legacy IE-specific `filter` rule.

#### Disable multibyte functions

To achieve faster parsing, you can choose to have PHP-CSS-Parser use regular string functions instead of `mb_*` functions. This should work fine in most cases, even for UTF-8 files, as all the multibyte characters are in string literals. Still it’s not recommended using this with input you have no control over as it’s not thoroughly covered by test cases.

```php
$settings = \Sabberworm\CSS\Settings::create()->withMultibyteSupport(false);
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser($css, $settings);
```

### Manipulation

The resulting data structure consists mainly of five basic types: `CSSList`, `RuleSet`, `Rule`, `Selector` and `Value`. There are two additional types used: `Import` and `Charset`, which you won’t use often.

#### CSSList

`CSSList` represents a generic CSS container, most likely containing declaration blocks (rule sets with a selector), but it may also contain at-rules, charset declarations, etc.

To access the items stored in a `CSSList` – like the document you got back when calling `$parser->parse()` –, use `getContents()`, then iterate over that collection and use `instanceof` to check whether you’re dealing with another `CSSList`, a `RuleSet`, a `Import` or a `Charset`.

To append a new item (selector, media query, etc.) to an existing `CSSList`, construct it using the constructor for this class and use the `append($oItem)` method.

#### RuleSet

`RuleSet` is a container for individual rules. The most common form of a rule set is one constrained by a selector. The following concrete subtypes exist:

* `AtRuleSet` – for generic at-rules for generic at-rules which are not covered by specific classes, i.e., not `@import`, `@charset` or `@media`. A common example for this is `@font-face`.
* `DeclarationBlock` – a `RuleSet` constrained by a `Selector`; contains an array of selector objects (comma-separated in the CSS) as well as the rules to be applied to the matching elements.

Note: A `CSSList` can contain other `CSSList`s (and `Import`s as well as a `Charset`), while a `RuleSet` can only contain `Rule`s.

If you want to manipulate a `RuleSet`, use the methods `addRule(Rule $rule)`, `getRules()` and `removeRule($rule)` (which accepts either a `Rule` or a rule name; optionally suffixed by a dash to remove all related rules).

#### Rule

`Rule`s just have a string key (the rule) and a `Value`.

#### Value

`Value` is an abstract class that only defines the `render` method. The concrete subclasses for atomic value types are:

* `Size` – consists of a numeric `size` value and a unit.
* `Color` – colors can be input in the form #rrggbb, #rgb or schema(val1, val2, …) but are always stored as an array of ('s' => val1, 'c' => val2, 'h' => val3, …) and output in the second form.
* `CSSString` – this is just a wrapper for quoted strings to distinguish them from keywords; always output with double quotes.
* `URL` – URLs in CSS; always output in `URL("")` notation.

There is another abstract subclass of `Value`, `ValueList`: A `ValueList` represents a lists of `Value`s, separated by some separation character (mostly `,`, whitespace, or `/`).

There are two types of `ValueList`s:

* `RuleValueList` – The default type, used to represent all multivalued rules like `font: bold 12px/3 Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif;` (where the value would be a whitespace-separated list of the primitive value `bold`, a slash-separated list and a comma-separated list).
* `CSSFunction` – A special kind of value that also contains a function name and where the values are the function’s arguments. Also handles equals-sign-separated argument lists like `filter: alpha(opacity=90);`.

#### Convenience methods

There are a few convenience methods on `Document` to ease finding, manipulating and deleting rules:

* `getAllDeclarationBlocks()` – does what it says; no matter how deeply nested the selectors are. Aliased as `getAllSelectors()`.
* `getAllRuleSets()` – does what it says; no matter how deeply nested the rule sets are.
* `getAllValues()` – finds all `Value` objects inside `Rule`s.

## To-Do

* More convenience methods (like `selectorsWithElement($sId/Class/TagName)`, `attributesOfType($type)`, `removeAttributesOfType($type)`)
* Real multibyte support. Currently, only multibyte charsets whose first 255 code points take up only one byte and are identical with ASCII are supported (yes, UTF-8 fits this description).
* Named color support (using `Color` instead of an anonymous string literal)

## Use cases

### Use `Parser` to prepend an ID to all selectors

```php
$myId = "#my_id";
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser($css);
$cssDocument = $parser->parse();
foreach ($cssDocument->getAllDeclarationBlocks() as $block) {
foreach ($block->getSelectors() as $selector) {
// Loop over all selector parts (the comma-separated strings in a
// selector) and prepend the ID.
$selector->setSelector($myId.' '.$selector->getSelector());
}
}
```

### Shrink all absolute sizes to half

```php
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser($css);
$cssDocument = $parser->parse();
foreach ($cssDocument->getAllValues() as $value) {
if ($value instanceof CSSSize && !$value->isRelative()) {
$value->setSize($value->getSize() / 2);
}
}
```

### Remove unwanted rules

```php
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser($css);
$cssDocument = $parser->parse();
foreach($cssDocument->getAllRuleSets() as $oRuleSet) {
// Note that the added dash will make this remove all rules starting with
// `font-` (like `font-size`, `font-weight`, etc.) as well as a potential
// `font` rule.
$oRuleSet->removeRule('font-');
$oRuleSet->removeRule('cursor');
}
```

### Output

To output the entire CSS document into a variable, just use `->render()`:

```php
$parser = new \Sabberworm\CSS\Parser(file_get_contents('somefile.css'));
$cssDocument = $parser->parse();
print $cssDocument->render();
```

If you want to format the output, pass an instance of type `\Sabberworm\CSS\OutputFormat`:

```php
$format = \Sabberworm\CSS\OutputFormat::create()
->indentWithSpaces(4)->setSpaceBetweenRules("\n");
print $cssDocument->render($format);
```

Or use one of the predefined formats:

```php
print $cssDocument->render(Sabberworm\CSS\OutputFormat::createPretty());
print $cssDocument->render(Sabberworm\CSS\OutputFormat::createCompact());
```

To see what you can do with output formatting, look at the tests in `tests/OutputFormatTest.php`.

## Examples

## Misc

### Legacy Support

The latest pre-PSR-0 version of this project can be checked with the `0.9.0` tag.

### Running Tests

To run all continuous integration (CI) checks for this project (including unit tests),
* run `composer install` to install the development dependencies managed with Composer;
* run `phive install` to install the development dependencies managed with PHIVE;
* [Installation of PHIVE](https://github.com/phar-io/phive?tab=readme-ov-file#getting-phive)
* run `composer ci` to run all static and dynamic CI checks.

Details of other Composer scripts available (e.g. to run one specific CI check) are provided with `composer list`.
