amble

A stupid simple CSS lexer and walker

Install

Download the CJS, ESM, UMD versions or install via NPM:

npm install @ryanmorr/amble

Usage

Given a string of CSS, amble will break it into logical segments such as a selector, an at-rule, or a declaration and sequentially walks them by calling a function. The function is provided the segment of CSS and the ending character used to indicate the type of segment as the only two parameters. The ending character is one of an opening brace ({) to indicate the start of a block, a semi-colon (;) to indicate a declaration, or a closing brace (}) to indicate the end of a block. For example:

import { walk } from '@ryanmorr/amble';

const css = `
    .foo {
        color: red;
    }

    @media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
        .foo {
            color: blue;
        }
    }
`;

walk(css, (style, char) => {
    console.log([style, char]);
});

Prints the following to the console:

[".foo", "{"]
["color:red", ";"]
["", "}"]
["@media screen and (max-width: 480px)", "{"]
[".foo", "{"]
["color:blue", ";"]
["", "}"]
["", "}"]
