grunt-aco2less

A grunt plugin used to create .less variables out of .aco files. Currently supports rgb and hsb(->hsv) colors.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-aco2less --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-aco2less');

The "aco2less" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named aco2less to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  aco2less: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    }
  },
})

Options

options.nameOverride

Type: String Default value: undefined

Used to override the color names in .aco files. aco2less appends color numbers automatically: my-color-name-1, my-color-name-2 etc.

Usage Examples

grunt.initConfig({
  aco2less: {
    options: {
      nameOverride: "my-color-name"
    },
    files: {
      'dest/my_less_file.less': ['my_aco_name.aco', 'path_to_my_acos/*.aco'],
    }
  }
})
