| # postcss-value-parser |
| |
| [](https://travis-ci.org/TrySound/postcss-value-parser) |
| |
| Transforms CSS declaration values and at-rule parameters into a tree of nodes, and provides a simple traversal API. |
| |
| ## Usage |
| |
| ```js |
| var valueParser = require('postcss-value-parser'); |
| var cssBackgroundValue = 'url(foo.png) no-repeat 40px 73%'; |
| var parsedValue = valueParser(cssBackgroundValue); |
| // parsedValue exposes an API described below, |
| // e.g. parsedValue.walk(..), parsedValue.toString(), etc. |
| ``` |
| |
| For example, parsing the value `rgba(233, 45, 66, .5)` will return the following: |
| |
| ```js |
| { |
| nodes: [ |
| { |
| type: 'function', |
| value: 'rgba', |
| before: '', |
| after: '', |
| nodes: [ |
| { type: 'word', value: '233' }, |
| { type: 'div', value: ',', before: '', after: ' ' }, |
| { type: 'word', value: '45' }, |
| { type: 'div', value: ',', before: '', after: ' ' }, |
| { type: 'word', value: '66' }, |
| { type: 'div', value: ',', before: ' ', after: '' }, |
| { type: 'word', value: '.5' } |
| ] |
| } |
| ] |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| If you wanted to convert each `rgba()` value in `sourceCSS` to a hex value, you could do so like this: |
| |
| ```js |
| var valueParser = require('postcss-value-parser'); |
| |
| var parsed = valueParser(sourceCSS); |
| |
| // walk() will visit all the of the nodes in the tree, |
| // invoking the callback for each. |
| parsed.walk(function (node) { |
| |
| // Since we only want to transform rgba() values, |
| // we can ignore anything else. |
| if (node.type !== 'function' && node.value !== 'rgba') return; |
| |
| // We can make an array of the rgba() arguments to feed to a |
| // convertToHex() function |
| var color = node.nodes.filter(function (node) { |
| return node.type === 'word'; |
| }).map(function (node) { |
| return Number(node.value); |
| }); // [233, 45, 66, .5] |
| |
| // Now we will transform the existing rgba() function node |
| // into a word node with the hex value |
| node.type = 'word'; |
| node.value = convertToHex(color); |
| }) |
| |
| parsed.toString(); // #E92D42 |
| ``` |
| |
| ## Nodes |
| |
| Each node is an object with these common properties: |
| |
| - **type**: The type of node (`word`, `string`, `div`, `space`, `comment`, or `function`). |
| Each type is documented below. |
| - **value**: Each node has a `value` property; but what exactly `value` means |
| is specific to the node type. Details are documented for each type below. |
| - **sourceIndex**: The starting index of the node within the original source |
| string. For example, given the source string `10px 20px`, the `word` node |
| whose value is `20px` will have a `sourceIndex` of `5`. |
| |
| ### word |
| |
| The catch-all node type that includes keywords (e.g. `no-repeat`), |
| quantities (e.g. `20px`, `75%`, `1.5`), and hex colors (e.g. `#e6e6e6`). |
| |
| Node-specific properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The "word" itself. |
| |
| ### string |
| |
| A quoted string value, e.g. `"something"` in `content: "something";`. |
| |
| Node-specific properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The text content of the string. |
| - **quote**: The quotation mark surrounding the string, either `"` or `'`. |
| - **unclosed**: `true` if the string was not closed properly. e.g. `"unclosed string `. |
| |
| ### div |
| |
| A divider, for example |
| |
| - `,` in `animation-duration: 1s, 2s, 3s` |
| - `/` in `border-radius: 10px / 23px` |
| - `:` in `(min-width: 700px)` |
| |
| Node-specific properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The divider character. Either `,`, `/`, or `:` (see examples above). |
| - **before**: Whitespace before the divider. |
| - **after**: Whitespace after the divider. |
| |
| ### space |
| |
| Whitespace used as a separator, e.g. ` ` occurring twice in `border: 1px solid black;`. |
| |
| Node-specific properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The whitespace itself. |
| |
| ### comment |
| |
| A CSS comment starts with `/*` and ends with `*/` |
| |
| Node-specific properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The comment value without `/*` and `*/` |
| - **unclosed**: `true` if the comment was not closed properly. e.g. `/* comment without an end `. |
| |
| ### function |
| |
| A CSS function, e.g. `rgb(0,0,0)` or `url(foo.bar)`. |
| |
| Function nodes have nodes nested within them: the function arguments. |
| |
| Additional properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The name of the function, e.g. `rgb` in `rgb(0,0,0)`. |
| - **before**: Whitespace after the opening parenthesis and before the first argument, |
| e.g. ` ` in `rgb( 0,0,0)`. |
| - **after**: Whitespace before the closing parenthesis and after the last argument, |
| e.g. ` ` in `rgb(0,0,0 )`. |
| - **nodes**: More nodes representing the arguments to the function. |
| - **unclosed**: `true` if the parentheses was not closed properly. e.g. `( unclosed-function `. |
| |
| Media features surrounded by parentheses are considered functions with an |
| empty value. For example, `(min-width: 700px)` parses to these nodes: |
| |
| ```js |
| [ |
| { |
| type: 'function', value: '', before: '', after: '', |
| nodes: [ |
| { type: 'word', value: 'min-width' }, |
| { type: 'div', value: ':', before: '', after: ' ' }, |
| { type: 'word', value: '700px' } |
| ] |
| } |
| ] |
| ``` |
| |
| `url()` functions can be parsed a little bit differently depending on |
| whether the first character in the argument is a quotation mark. |
| |
| `url( /gfx/img/bg.jpg )` parses to: |
| |
| ```js |
| { type: 'function', sourceIndex: 0, value: 'url', before: ' ', after: ' ', nodes: [ |
| { type: 'word', sourceIndex: 5, value: '/gfx/img/bg.jpg' } |
| ] } |
| ``` |
| |
| `url( "/gfx/img/bg.jpg" )`, on the other hand, parses to: |
| |
| ```js |
| { type: 'function', sourceIndex: 0, value: 'url', before: ' ', after: ' ', nodes: [ |
| type: 'string', sourceIndex: 5, quote: '"', value: '/gfx/img/bg.jpg' }, |
| ] } |
| ``` |
| |
| ### unicode-range |
| |
| The unicode-range CSS descriptor sets the specific range of characters to be |
| used from a font defined by @font-face and made available |
| for use on the current page (`unicode-range: U+0025-00FF`). |
| |
| Node-specific properties: |
| |
| - **value**: The "unicode-range" itself. |
| |
| ## API |
| |
| ``` |
| var valueParser = require('postcss-value-parser'); |
| ``` |
| |
| ### valueParser.unit(quantity) |
| |
| Parses `quantity`, distinguishing the number from the unit. Returns an object like the following: |
| |
| ```js |
| // Given 2rem |
| { |
| number: '2', |
| unit: 'rem' |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| If the `quantity` argument cannot be parsed as a number, returns `false`. |
| |
| *This function does not parse complete values*: you cannot pass it `1px solid black` and expect `px` as |
| the unit. Instead, you should pass it single quantities only. Parse `1px solid black`, then pass it |
| the stringified `1px` node (a `word` node) to parse the number and unit. |
| |
| ### valueParser.stringify(nodes[, custom]) |
| |
| Stringifies a node or array of nodes. |
| |
| The `custom` function is called for each `node`; return a string to override the default behaviour. |
| |
| ### valueParser.walk(nodes, callback[, bubble]) |
| |
| Walks each provided node, recursively walking all descendent nodes within functions. |
| |
| Returning `false` in the `callback` will prevent traversal of descendent nodes (within functions). |
| You can use this feature to for shallow iteration, walking over only the *immediate* children. |
| *Note: This only applies if `bubble` is `false` (which is the default).* |
| |
| By default, the tree is walked from the outermost node inwards. |
| To reverse the direction, pass `true` for the `bubble` argument. |
| |
| The `callback` is invoked with three arguments: `callback(node, index, nodes)`. |
| |
| - `node`: The current node. |
| - `index`: The index of the current node. |
| - `nodes`: The complete nodes array passed to `walk()`. |
| |
| Returns the `valueParser` instance. |
| |
| ### var parsed = valueParser(value) |
| |
| Returns the parsed node tree. |
| |
| ### parsed.nodes |
| |
| The array of nodes. |
| |
| ### parsed.toString() |
| |
| Stringifies the node tree. |
| |
| ### parsed.walk(callback[, bubble]) |
| |
| Walks each node inside `parsed.nodes`. See the documentation for `valueParser.walk()` above. |
