libsass 0.4.0

SASS for Python: A straightforward binding of libsass for Python.

This package provides a simple Python extension module sass which is binding Libsass (written in C/C++ by Hampton Catlin and Aaron Leung). It’s very straightforward and there isn’t any headache related Python distribution/deployment. That means you can add just libsass into your setup.py’s install_requires list or requirements.txt file. Need no Ruby nor Node.js.

It currently supports CPython 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, and PyPy 1.9+!

Install

It’s available on PyPI, so you can install it using pip (or easy_install):

$ pip install libsass

Example

>>> import sass
>>> print sass.compile(string='a { b { color: blue; } }')
a b {
  color: blue; }
