# grunt-contrib-sass v2.0.0 [](https://travis-ci.org/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-sass) [](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-sass/branch/master)
> Compile Sass to CSS
## Getting Started
If you haven't used [Grunt](https://gruntjs.com/) before, be sure to check out the [Getting Started](https://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how to create a [Gruntfile](https://gruntjs.com/sample-gruntfile) as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
```shell
npm install grunt-contrib-sass --save-dev
```
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
```js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
```
## Sass task
_Run this task with the `grunt sass` command._
[Sass](http://sass-lang.com/) is a preprocessor that adds nested rules, variables, mixins and functions, selector inheritance, and more to CSS. Sass files compile into well-formatted, standard CSS to use in your site or application.
This task requires you to have [Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/) and [Sass](http://sass-lang.com/install) installed. If you're on OS X or Linux you probably already have Ruby installed; test with `ruby -v` in your terminal. When you've confirmed you have Ruby installed, run `gem install sass` to install Sass.
Note: Files that begin with "_" are ignored even if they match the globbing pattern. This is done to match the expected [Sass partial behaviour](http://sass-lang.com/documentation/file.SASS_REFERENCE.html#partials).
### Options
#### sourcemap
Type: `String`
Default: `auto`
Values:
- `auto` - relative paths where possible, file URIs elsewhere
- `file` - always absolute file URIs
- `inline` - include the source text in the sourcemap
- `none`- no sourcemaps
**Requires Sass 3.4.0, which can be installed with `gem install sass`**
#### trace
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Show a full traceback on error.
#### unixNewlines
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false` on Windows, otherwise `true`
Force Unix newlines in written files.
#### check
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Just check the Sass syntax, does not evaluate and write the output.
#### style
Type: `String`
Default: `nested`
Output style. Can be `nested`, `compact`, `compressed`, `expanded`.
#### precision
Type: `Number`
Default: `5`
How many digits of precision to use when outputting decimal numbers.
#### quiet
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Silence warnings and status messages during compilation.
#### compass
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Make Compass imports available and load project configuration (`config.rb` located close to the `Gruntfile.js`).
#### debugInfo
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Emit extra information in the generated CSS that can be used by the FireSass Firebug plugin.
#### lineNumbers
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Emit comments in the generated CSS indicating the corresponding source line.
#### loadPath
Type: `String|Array`
Add a (or multiple) Sass import path.
#### require
Type: `String|Array`
Require a (or multiple) Ruby library before running Sass.
#### cacheLocation
Type: `String`
Default: `.sass-cache`
The path to put cached Sass files.
#### noCache
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Don't cache to sassc files.
#### bundleExec
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Run `sass` with [bundle exec](https://bundler.io/man/bundle-exec.1.html): `bundle exec sass`.
#### update
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Only compile changed files.
### Examples
#### Example config
```js
grunt.initConfig({
sass: { // Task
dist: { // Target
options: { // Target options
style: 'expanded'
},
files: { // Dictionary of files
'main.css': 'main.scss', // 'destination': 'source'
'widgets.css': 'widgets.scss'
}
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['sass']);
```
#### Compile
```js
grunt.initConfig({
sass: {
dist: {
files: {
'main.css': 'main.scss'
}
}
}
});
```
#### Concat and compile
Instead of concatenating the files, just `@import` them into another `.sass` file eg. `main.scss`.
#### Compile multiple files
You can specify multiple `destination: source` items in `files`.
```js
grunt.initConfig({
sass: {
dist: {
files: {
'main.css': 'main.scss',
'widgets.css': 'widgets.scss'
}
}
}
});
```
#### Compile files in a directory
Instead of naming all files you want to compile, you can use the `expand` property allowing you to specify a directory. More information available in the [grunt docs](https://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks) - `Building the files object dynamically`.
```js
grunt.initConfig({
sass: {
dist: {
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: 'styles',
src: ['*.scss'],
dest: '../public',
ext: '.css'
}]
}
}
});
```
