spit-css! not being able to account for different namespaces
Hello,
I've been using this library with great pleasure and it's amazing, great job by the way.
My code started to become bulky so I wanted to split in different ns for ease of management.
I've noticed that even if I run (spit-css! "..") only in my main namespace (where all components are required) or try to run it in each ns individually, it still deletes randomly some classes that I still use.
Am I missing something ? Should I run it some place specifically ?
I ended up generating different css-es for each namespace and imported them in the html separately instead of having one giant css that keeps being aggressively modified by each figwheel compilation.
I still see classes added and removed randomly (while not even working in a specific namespace for example) but overall it's not affecting me as it used to.
not sure if this is a good workaround because it just moves the issue of ordering rules to ordering <link ref>s of css files, but so far so good, no rules overwrite each other in a seemingly random list of imports.
@vladanghene Thanks for the feedback. I have to admit I've only used this on small demos so far
and I agree the way the library currently collects the tailwind rules via macros
is fragile W.R.T. to figwheel reloading. Also it's not obvious where to call spit-css!. I'm guessing if figwheel doesn't recompile a namespace then it won't see those rules before spit-css! is called causing those rules to vanish. My understanding of macro evaluation with figwheels hot reloading is a bit sketchy maybe there is a figwheel setting or a different approach is needed in development
I'll try and reproduce this on a larger project
