less-plugin-nodemodules-import

This plugin provides less imports from node_modules, just like less/less-plugin-npm-import and webpack's less-loader do.

Usage

Install with npm (or yarn):

$ npm install @thomann/less-plugin-nodemodules-import

Programmatic Usage

Register with your less instance:

const LessPluginNodeModulesImport = require('@thomann/less-plugin-nodemodules-import');
less.render(anyFile, {plugins: [new LessPluginNodeModulesImport(opts)]});

Command-Line Usage

$ lessc --plugin=@thomann/less-plugin-nodemodules-import <less-file>

To define options with command line usage, pass a JSON object string with the parameters as less plugin option:

$ lessc --plugin=@thomann/less-plugin-nodemodules-import={"mainFile":"main.less"}

Note that the parameters have to be valid JSON.

Options

mainFile	string	index.less	Which file to load if the import is a directory
