Compiles Styl to CSS. ## Getting Started To begin, you'll need to install `stylus` and `stylus-loader`: ```console $ npm install stylus stylus-loader --save-dev ``` Then add the loader to your `webpack` config. For example: **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/, loader: "stylus-loader", // compiles Styl to CSS }, ], }, }; ``` And run `webpack` via your preferred method. ## Options | Name | Type | Default | Description | | :---------------------------------------: | :------------------: | :----------------: | :------------------------------------------------------- | | **[`stylusOptions`](#stylusOptions)** | `{Object\|Function}` | `{}` | Options for Stylus. | | **[`sourceMap`](#sourcemap)** | `{Boolean}` | `compiler.devtool` | Enables/Disables generation of source maps. | | **[`webpackImporter`](#webpackimporter)** | `{Boolean}` | `true` | Enables/Disables the default Webpack importer. | | **[`additionalData`](#additionalData)** | `{String\|Function}` | `undefined` | Prepends/Appends `Stylus` code to the actual entry file. | | **[`implementation`](#implementation)** | `{String\|Function}` | `stylus` | Setup Stylus implementation to use. | ### `stylusOptions` Type: `Object|Function` Default: `{}` You can pass any Stylus specific options to the `stylus-loader` through the `stylusOptions` property in the [loader options](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/module/#rule-options-rule-query). See the [Stylus documentation](https://stylus-lang.com/docs/js.html). Options in dash-case should use camelCase. #### `Object` Use an object to pass options through to Stylus. **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/, use: [ { loader: "style-loader", }, { loader: "css-loader", }, { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { stylusOptions: { /** * Specify Stylus plugins to use. Plugins may be passed as * strings instead of importing them in your Webpack config. * * @type {(string|Function)[]} * @default [] */ use: ["nib"], /** * Add path(s) to the import lookup paths. * * @type {string[]} * @default [] */ include: [path.join(__dirname, "src/styl/config")], /** * Import the specified Stylus files/paths. * * @type {string[]} * @default [] */ import: ["nib", path.join(__dirname, "src/styl/mixins")], /** * Define Stylus variables or functions. * * @type {Array|Object} * @default {} */ // Array is the recommended syntax: [key, value, raw] define: [ ["$development", process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"], ["rawVar", 42, true], ], // Object is deprecated syntax (there is no possibility to specify "raw') // define: { // $development: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development', // rawVar: 42, // }, /** * Include regular CSS on @import. * * @type {boolean} * @default false */ includeCSS: false, /** * Resolve relative url()'s inside imported files. * * @see https://stylus-lang.com/docs/js.html#stylusresolveroptions * * @type {boolean|Object} * @default { nocheck: true } */ resolveURL: true, // resolveURL: { nocheck: true }, /** * Emits comments in the generated CSS indicating the corresponding Stylus line. * * @see https://stylus-lang.com/docs/executable.html * * @type {boolean} * @default false */ lineNumbers: true, /** * Move @import and @charset to the top. * * @see https://stylus-lang.com/docs/executable.html * * @type {boolean} * @default false */ hoistAtrules: true, /** * Compress CSS output. * In the "production" mode is `true` by default * * @see https://stylus-lang.com/docs/executable.html * * @type {boolean} * @default false */ compress: true, }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` #### `Function` Allows setting the options passed through to Stylus based off of the loader context. ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { stylusOptions: (loaderContext) => { // More information about available properties https://webpack.js.org/api/loaders/ const { resourcePath, rootContext } = loaderContext; const relativePath = path.relative(rootContext, resourcePath); if (relativePath === "styles/foo.styl") { return { paths: ["absolute/path/c", "absolute/path/d"], }; } return { paths: ["absolute/path/a", "absolute/path/b"], }; }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### `sourceMap` Type: `Boolean` **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/i, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { sourceMap: true, }, }, { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { sourceMap: true, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### `webpackImporter` Type: `Boolean` Default: `true` Enables/Disables the default Webpack importer. This can improve performance in some cases. Use it with caution because aliases and `@import` at-rules starting with `~` will not work. **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { webpackImporter: false, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### `additionalData` Type: `String|Function` Default: `undefined` Prepends `Stylus` code before the actual entry file. In this case, the `stylus-loader` will not override the source but just **prepend** the entry's content. This is especially useful when some of your Stylus variables depend on the environment: > ℹ Since you're injecting code, this will break the source mappings in your entry file. Often there's a simpler solution than this, like multiple Stylus entry files. #### `String` ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { additionalData: `@env: ${process.env.NODE_ENV};`, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` #### `Function` ##### Sync ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { additionalData: (content, loaderContext) => { // More information about available properties https://webpack.js.org/api/loaders/ const { resourcePath, rootContext } = loaderContext; const relativePath = path.relative(rootContext, resourcePath); if (relativePath === "styles/foo.styl") { return "value = 100px" + content; } return "value 200px" + content; }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ##### Async ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { additionalData: async (content, loaderContext) => { // More information about available properties https://webpack.js.org/api/loaders/ const { resourcePath, rootContext } = loaderContext; const relativePath = path.relative(rootContext, resourcePath); if (relativePath === "styles/foo.styl") { return "value = 100px" + content; } return "value 200px" + content; }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### `implementation` Type: `Function | String` The special `implementation` option determines which implementation of Stylus to use. Overrides the locally installed `peerDependency` version of `stylus`. #### Function **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { implementation: require("stylus"), }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` #### String **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { implementation: require.resolve("stylus"), }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ## Examples ### Normal usage Chain the `stylus-loader` with the [`css-loader`](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/css-loader) and the [`style-loader`](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/style-loader) to immediately apply all styles to the DOM. **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/, use: [ { loader: "style-loader", // creates style nodes from JS strings }, { loader: "css-loader", // translates CSS into CommonJS }, { loader: "stylus-loader", // compiles Stylus to CSS }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### Source maps To enable sourcemaps for CSS, you'll need to pass the `sourceMap` property in the loader's options. If this is not passed, the loader will respect the setting for webpack source maps, set in `devtool`. **webpack.config.js** ```javascript module.exports = { devtool: "source-map", // any "source-map"-like devtool is possible module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { sourceMap: true, }, }, { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { sourceMap: true, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### Using nib with stylus **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/, use: [ { loader: "style-loader", // creates style nodes from JS strings }, { loader: "css-loader", // translates CSS into CommonJS }, { loader: "stylus-loader", // compiles Stylus to CSS options: { stylusOptions: { use: [require("nib")()], import: ["nib"], }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### Import JSON files Stylus does not provide resolving capabilities in the `json` function. Therefore webpack resolver does not work for `.json` files. Use [`stylus resolver`](#stylus-resolver). **index.styl** ```styl // Suppose the file is located here `node_modules/vars/vars.json` json('vars.json') @media queries-small body display nope ``` **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl$/, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { stylusOptions: { // Specify the path. where to find files paths: ["node_modules/vars"], }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### In production Usually, it's recommended to extract the style sheets into a dedicated file in production using the [MiniCssExtractPlugin](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/mini-css-extract-plugin). This way your styles are not dependent on JavaScript. ### webpack resolver Webpack provides an [advanced mechanism to resolve files](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/resolve/). The `stylus-loader` applies the webpack resolver when processing queries. Thus you can import your Stylus modules from `node_modules`. ```styl @import 'bootstrap-styl/bootstrap/index.styl'; ``` Using `~` is deprecated and can be removed from your code (**we recommend it**), but we still support it for historical reasons. Why you can removed it? The loader will first try to resolve `@import`/`@require` as relative, if it cannot be resolved, the loader will try to resolve `@import`/`@require` inside [`node_modules`](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/resolve/#resolve-modules). Just prepend them with a `~` which tells webpack to look up the [`modules`](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/resolve/#resolve-modules). ```styl @import "~bootstrap-styl/bootstrap/index.styl"; ``` It's important to only prepend it with `~`, because `~/` resolves to the home-directory. Webpack needs to distinguish between `bootstrap` and `~bootstrap`, because CSS and Styl files have no special syntax for importing relative files. Writing `@import "file"` is the same as `@import "./file";` ### Stylus resolver If you specify the `paths` option, modules will be searched in the given `paths`. This is Stylus default behavior. **webpack.config.js** ```js module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.styl/, use: [ { loader: "style-loader", }, { loader: "css-loader", }, { loader: "stylus-loader", options: { stylusOptions: { paths: [path.resolve(__dirname, "node_modules")], }, }, }, ], }, ], }, }; ``` ### Extracting style sheets Bundling CSS with webpack has some nice advantages like referencing images and fonts with hashed urls or [hot module replacement](https://webpack.js.org/concepts/hot-module-replacement/) in development. In production, on the other hand, it's not a good idea to apply your style sheets depending on JS execution. Rendering may be delayed or even a [FOUC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_of_unstyled_content) might be visible. Thus it's often still better to have them as separate files in your final production build. There are two possibilities to extract a style sheet from the bundle: - [`extract-loader`](https://github.com/peerigon/extract-loader) (simpler, but specialized on the css-loader's output) - [MiniCssExtractPlugin](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/mini-css-extract-plugin) (more complex, but works in all use-cases) ## Contributing Please take a moment to read our contributing guidelines if you haven't yet done so.
