In sass: Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets ('Sass')

Example for `data_context`

```C:data.c

include

include "sass/context.h"

int main( int argc, const char* argv[] ) {

// LibSass will take control of data you pass in // Therefore we need to make a copy of static data char* text = sass_copy_c_string("a{b:c;}"); // Normally you'll load data into a buffer from i.e. the disk. // Use sass_alloc_memory to get a buffer to pass to LibSass // then fill it with data you load from disk or somewhere else.

// create the data context and get all related structs struct Sass_Data_Context data_ctx = sass_make_data_context(text); struct Sass_Context ctx = sass_data_context_get_context(data_ctx); struct Sass_Options* ctx_opt = sass_context_get_options(ctx);

// configure some options ... sass_option_set_precision(ctx_opt, 10);

// context is set up, call the compile step now int status = sass_compile_data_context(data_ctx);

// print the result or the error to the stdout if (status == 0) puts(sass_context_get_output_string(ctx)); else puts(sass_context_get_error_message(ctx));

// release allocated memory sass_delete_data_context(data_ctx);

// exit status return status;

}


### Compile data.c

```bash
gcc -c data.c -o data.o
gcc -o sample data.o -lsass
echo "foo { margin: 21px * 2; }" > foo.scss
./sample foo.scss => "foo { margin: 42px }"

Example for `file_context`

```C:file.c

include

include "sass/context.h"

int main( int argc, const char* argv[] ) {

// get the input file from first argument or use default const char* input = argc > 1 ? argv[1] : "styles.scss";

// create the file context and get all related structs struct Sass_File_Context file_ctx = sass_make_file_context(input); struct Sass_Context ctx = sass_file_context_get_context(file_ctx); struct Sass_Options* ctx_opt = sass_context_get_options(ctx);

// configure some options ... sass_option_set_precision(ctx_opt, 10);

// context is set up, call the compile step now int status = sass_compile_file_context(file_ctx);

// print the result or the error to the stdout if (status == 0) puts(sass_context_get_output_string(ctx)); else puts(sass_context_get_error_message(ctx));

// release allocated memory sass_delete_file_context(file_ctx);

// exit status return status;

}


### Compile file.c

```bash
gcc -c file.c -o file.o
gcc -o sample file.o -lsass
echo "foo { margin: 21px * 2; }" > foo.scss
./sample foo.scss => "foo { margin: 42px }"
