Just want to use cssparser.js? Nothing needed.
If want generating parser, install 'jison' before it.
- Jison - http://jison.org
First of all, you should install cssparser.
$ npm install cssparser
or
$ npm install cssparser -g
Then execute and you can generate JSON file from command-line.
$ cssparser cssFile
or
$ cssparser cssFile -o output_file
You can generate javascript object from your javascript module.
// getting parser module
var cssparser = require("cssparser");
// create new instance of Parser
var parser = new cssparser.Parser();
// parse
var ast = parser.parse(raw)
// getting json
var json = ast.toJSON(type)
$ git clone https://github.com/cwdoh/cssparser.js.git
$ npm install
$ npm run build
There are 3 types of JSON format.
- simple - most simple.
- simply consist of just key & value.
- deep - more detailed then simple mode.
- this includes more informations of selector, terms, expression, queries, …
- atomic - most detailed. 'atomic' JSON has all pieces of each key & values in CSS.
- e.g. length has numeric value & its unit like "100px" -> { "value": 100, "unit": "px" }
Example is tested with rulesets of http://css3please.com
