Module: Sass::Script::Functions

Included in:
EvaluationContext
Defined in:
lib/sass/script/functions.rb

Overview

Methods in this module are accessible from the SassScript context. For example, you can write

!color = hsl(120, 100%, 50%)

and it will call #hsl.

The following functions are provided:

#hsl : Converts an ‘hsl(hue, saturation, lightness)` triplet into a color.

#percentage : Converts a unitless number to a percentage.

#round : Rounds a number to the nearest whole number.

#ceil : Rounds a number up to the nearest whole number.

#floor : Rounds a number down to the nearest whole number.

#abs : Returns the absolute value of a number.

You can add your own functions to this module, but there are a few things to keep in mind. First of all, the arguments passed are Literal objects. Literal objects are also expected to be returned.

Second, making Ruby functions accessible from Sass introduces the temptation to do things like database access within stylesheets. This temptation must be resisted. Keep in mind that Sass stylesheets are only compiled once at a somewhat indeterminate time and then left as static CSS files. Any dynamic CSS should be left in ‘<style>` tags in the HTML.

Within one of the functions in this module, methods of EvaluationContext can be used.

Instance Method Details

#abs(value) ⇒ Number

Finds the absolute value of a number. For example:

abs(10px) => 10px
abs(-10px) => 10px

Parameters:

  • value (Number)

    The number

Returns:

  • (Number)

    The absolute value

Raises:

# File 'lib/sass/script/functions.rb', line 157

def abs(value)
  numeric_transformation(value) {|n| n.abs}
end

#ceil(value) ⇒ Number

Rounds a number up to the nearest whole number. For example:

ciel(10.4px) => 11px
ciel(10.6px) => 11px

Parameters:

  • value (Number)

    The number

Returns:

  • (Number)

    The rounded number

Raises:

# File 'lib/sass/script/functions.rb', line 131

def ceil(value)
  numeric_transformation(value) {|n| n.ceil}
end

#floor(value) ⇒ Number

Rounds down to the nearest whole number. For example:

floor(10.4px) => 10px
floor(10.6px) => 10px

Parameters:

  • value (Number)

    The number

Returns:

  • (Number)

    The rounded number

Raises:

# File 'lib/sass/script/functions.rb', line 144

def floor(value)
  numeric_transformation(value) {|n| n.floor}
end

#hsl(hue, saturation, lightness) ⇒ Color

Creates a Color object from hue, saturation, and lightness as per the CSS3 spec (www.w3.org/TR/css3-color/#hsl-color).

Parameters:

  • hue (Number)

    The hue of the color. Should be between 0 and 360 degrees, inclusive

  • saturation (Number)

    The saturation of the color. Must be between ‘0%` and `100%`, inclusive

  • lightness (Number)

    The lightness of the color. Must be between ‘0%` and `100%`, inclusive

Returns:

  • (Color)

    The resulting color

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    if ‘saturation` or `lightness` are out of bounds

def hsl(hue, saturation, lightness)
  original_s = saturation
  original_l = lightness
  # This algorithm is from http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-color#hsl-color
  h, s, l = [hue, saturation, lightness].map { |a| a.value }
  raise ArgumentError.new("Saturation #{s} must be between 0% and 100%") if s < 0 || s > 100
  raise ArgumentError.new("Lightness #{l} must be between 0% and 100%") if l < 0 || l > 100

  h = (h % 360) / 360.0
  s /= 100.0
  l /= 100.0

  m2 = l <= 0.5 ? l * (s + 1) : l + s - l * s
  m1 = l * 2 - m2
  Color.new([hue_to_rgb(m1, m2, h + 1.0/3),
             hue_to_rgb(m1, m2, h),
             hue_to_rgb(m1, m2, h - 1.0/3)].map { |c| (c * 0xff).round })
end

#percentage(value) ⇒ Number

Converts a decimal number to a percentage. For example:

percentage(100px / 50px) => 200%

Parameters:

  • value (Number)

    The decimal number to convert to a percentage

Returns:

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    If ‘value` isn’t a unitless number

    raise ArgumentError.new("#{value} is not a unitless number")
  end
  Sass::Script::Number.new(value.value * 100, ['%'])
end

#round(value) ⇒ Number

Rounds a number to the nearest whole number. For example:

round(10.4px) => 10px
round(10.6px) => 11px

Parameters:

  • value (Number)

    The number

Returns:
