# @adobe/css-tools > This is a fork of the npm css package due to low maintenance CSS parser / stringifier. ## Installation $ npm install @adobe/css-tools ## Usage ```js import { parse, stringify } from '@adobe/css-tools' let obj = parse('body { font-size: 12px; }', options); let css = stringify(obj, options); ``` ## API ### parse(code, [options]) Accepts a CSS string and returns an AST `object`. `options`: - silent: silently fail on parse errors. - source: the path to the file containing `css`. Makes errors and source maps more helpful, by letting them know where code comes from. ### stringify(object, [options]) Accepts an AST `object` (as `css.parse` produces) and returns a CSS string. `options`: - indent: the string used to indent the output. Defaults to two spaces. - compress: omit comments and extraneous whitespace. ### Example ```js var ast = parse('body { font-size: 12px; }', { source: 'source.css' }); var css = stringify(ast); ``` ### Errors Errors thrown during parsing have the following properties: - message: `String`. The full error message with the source position. - reason: `String`. The error message without position. - filename: `String` or `undefined`. The value of `options.source` if passed to `css.parse`. Otherwise `undefined`. - line: `Integer`. - column: `Integer`. - source: `String`. The portion of code that couldn't be parsed. When parsing with the `silent` option, errors are listed in the `parsingErrors` property of the [`stylesheet`](#stylesheet) node instead of being thrown. If you create any errors in plugins such as in [rework](https://github.com/reworkcss/rework), you __must__ set the same properties for consistency. ## AST Interactively explore the AST with . ### Common properties All nodes have the following properties. #### position Information about the position in the source string that corresponds to the node. `Object`: - start: `Object`: - line: `Number`. - column: `Number`. - end: `Object`: - line: `Number`. - column: `Number`. - source: `String` or `undefined`. The value of `options.source` if passed to `css.parse`. Otherwise `undefined`. - content: `String`. The full source string passed to `css.parse`. The line and column numbers are 1-based: The first line is 1 and the first column of a line is 1 (not 0). The `position` property lets you know from which source file the node comes from (if available), what that file contains, and what part of that file was parsed into the node. #### type `String`. The possible values are the ones listed in the Types section below. #### parent A reference to the parent node, or `null` if the node has no parent. ### Types The available values of `node.type` are listed below, as well as the available properties of each node (other than the common properties listed above.) #### stylesheet The root node returned by `css.parse`. - stylesheet: `Object`: - rules: `Array` of nodes with the types `rule`, `comment` and any of the at-rule types. - parsingErrors: `Array` of `Error`s.

The property name, trimmed from whitespace and comments. May not be empty. - value: `String`. The value of the property, trimmed from whitespace and comments. Empty values are allowed. #### comment A rule-level or declaration-level comment. Comments inside selectors, properties and values etc. are lost. - comment: `String`.

The part following `@import `. #### keyframes The `@keyframes` at-rule. - name: `String`. The name of the keyframes rule. - vendor: `String` or `undefined`. The vendor prefix in `@keyframes`, or `undefined` if there is none. - keyframes: `Array` of nodes with the types `keyframe` and `comment`. #### keyframe - values: `Array` of `String`s. The list of “selectors” of the keyframe rule, split on commas. Each “selector” is trimmed from whitespace. - declarations: `Array` of nodes with the types `declaration` and `comment`. #### media The `@media` at-rule. - media: `String`. The part following `@media `. - rules: `Array` of nodes with the types `rule`, `comment` and any of the at-rule types. #### namespace The `@namespace` at-rule. - namespace: `String`. The part following `@namespace `. #### page The `@page` at-rule. - selectors: `Array` of `String`s. The list of selectors of the rule, split on commas. Each selector is trimmed from whitespace and comments. - declarations: `Array` of nodes with the types `declaration` and `comment`. #### supports The `@supports` at-rule. - supports: `String`. The part following `@supports `. - rules: `Array` of nodes with the types `rule`, `comment` and any of the at-rule types. ### container The `@container` at-rule. - conatiner: `String`. The part following `@container `. - rules: `Array` of nodes with the types `rule`, `comment` and any of the at-rule types. ### layer The `@layer` at-rule. - layer: `String`. The part following `@layer `. - rules: `Array` of nodes with the types `rule`, `comment` and any of the at-rule types. This may be null, if the rule did not contain any. ### starting-style The `@starting-style` at-rule. - rules: `Array` of nodes with the types `rule`, `comment` and any of the at-rule types. ### Example CSS: ```css body { background: #eee; color: #888; } ``` Parse tree: ```json { "type": "stylesheet", "stylesheet": { "rules": [ { "type": "rule", "selectors": [ "body" ], "declarations": [ { "type": "declaration", "property": "background", "value": "#eee", "position": { "start": { "line": 2, "column": 3 }, "end": { "line": 2, "column": 19 } } }, { "type": "declaration", "property": "color", "value": "#888", "position": { "start": { "line": 3, "column": 3 }, "end": { "line": 3, "column": 14 } } } ], "position": { "start": { "line": 1, "column": 1 }, "end": { "line": 4, "column": 2 } } } ] } } ``` ## License MIT
