Removal of sassc dependency

Open marcrohloff opened this issue 2 years ago • 6 comments

Can the sassc dependency be removed?

We are using dartsass and would rather not have this as an explicit dependency

AFAIK, this project does not support DartSass and is using sassc/LibSass (C++ one, not Ruby one).

DartSass is very different from LibSass, don't expect this project to work properly with it.

I realize that. It would be nice to not have the unneeded dependency since sassc is no longer maintained and it seems to be working fine for us. Changing to a newer version of bootstrap but that is a much bigger project

Version 3.4.2 did break support for sassc/libsass by introducing math.div. Everyone will have to upgrade to dartsass/dartsass-sprockets now. Using sassc will not work anymore at all.

Any update on this? - is there an alternative gem that doesn't use the deprecated sassc?

@rgaufman I can confirm that switching from sassc to dartsass-sprockets works for our Rails 7 app.

But if we try to switch to dartsass-rails, assets:precompile fails.

Reading through the code of this gem, it seems that sprockets-rails is not a dependency. Is there anyone who has gotten this to work with dartsass-rails? (I started a new issue for this in #1247)
