  color: rgba(0, 0, 0, .3);
  color: rgba(black, .3);

// variable uses a color literal as an identifier
$black: #000

// variable using a color literal as an identifier is passed to a function
.test {
  color: adjust-color($off-red, $blue: 5)

Property Sort Order

Rule property-sort-order will enforce the order in which declarations are written.

Options

• order: 'alphabetical', 'concentric', 'recess', 'smacss', or [array of properties] (defaults to alphabetical. Unknown properties are sorted alphabetically)
• ignore-custom-properties: true/false (defaults to false)

Property orders: https://github.com/sasstools/sass-lint/tree/develop/lib/config/property-sort-orders

Examples

When enabled (assuming order: alphabetical), the following are allowed:

.foo {
  content: 'baz';
  height: 100vh;
  width: 100vw;
}

When enabled (assuming order: alphabetical), the following are disallowed:

.foo {
  width: 100vw;
  height: 100vh;
  content: 'baz';
}

Custom Sort Orders

You have the option to create your own custom property sort orders. These are specified in your .sass-lint.yml file as below:

property-sort-order:
  - 1
  -
    order:
      - border
      - display
      - color

When the custom order is specified as above, the following are allowed:

.foo {
  border: 1px solid blue;
  display: block;
  color: red;
}

When the custom order is specified as above, the following are disallowed:

.foo {
  display: block;
  color: red;
  border: 1px solid blue;
}

Ignore Custom Properties

When ignore-custom-properties: false (assume order: 'alphabetical') the following would be allowed

.foo {
  border: 1px solid blue;
  color: red;
  composes: heading;
  display: block;
}

When ignore-custom-properties: false (assume order: 'alphabetical') the following would be disallowed

.foo {
  composes: heading; // not in alphabetical order
  border: 1px solid blue;
  color: red;
  display: block;
}

When ignore-custom-properties: true (assume order: 'alphabetical') the following would be allowed

.foo {
  composes: heading; // custom properties ignored
  border: 1px solid blue;
  color: red;
  display: block;
}

No Color Literals

Rule no-color-literals will disallow the use of color literals and basic color functions in any declarations other than variables or maps/lists.

The list of affected color functions are as follows: * rgb * rgba * hsl * hsla

Other color functions, such as adjust-color and mix, may be used, but the original color must be passed in as a variable.

Options

• allow-map-identifiers: true/false (defaults to true)
• allow-rgba: true/false (defaults to false)
• allow-variable-identifiers: true/false (defaults to true)

Examples

When enabled and default options are used the following are disallowed.
