compass

Compass wrapper and middleware for node.js.

Install

Ensure compass is already installed (install compass).
Then just use npm:

npm install compass

Usage

Middelware

Ensure compass comes before a static middleware. compass generates your css files but does not serve them. You need a static middleware for that.

var compass = require('compass'),
    express = require('express')();

app = express();
app.use(compass({ cwd: __dirname + 'public' }));
app.use(express.static(__dirname + 'public'));

Manually

For now compass only wraps the compile action.

var compass = require('compass');

// compiles in process.cwd()
compass.compile(function(err, stdout, stderr) {
    console.log('done');
});

// compiles in the given directory
compass.compile({ cwd: __dirname + 'public' }, function(err, stdout, stderr) {
    console.log('done');
});

Options

For now compass only offer the cwd option.
If you want to customize stuff, please use a config.rb (http://compass-style.org/help/tutorials/configuration-reference)
