Nesting Depth

Rule nesting-depth will enforce how deeply a selector can be nested.

Options

• max-depth: number (defaults to 2)

Examples

When enabled (assuming max-depth: 2) the deepest element (&:hover and &--modifier) are at at depth 2. Any nested selector deeper is disallowed:

.foo {
  .baz {
    &:hover {
      // Deepest Nest Allowed

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;

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 {

  border: 1px solid blue;
  color: red;
  display: block;

MD022 - Headers should be surrounded by blank lines

Tags: headers, blank_lines

Aliases: blanks-around-headers

This rule is triggered when headers (any style) are either not preceded or not followed by a blank line:

# Header 1

## Header 2

To fix this, ensure that all headers have a blank line both before and after (except where the header is at the beginning or end of the document):

# Header 1

Some text

Some more text

## Header 2

Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including kramdown, will not parse headers that don't have a blank line before, and will parse them as regular text.

When include: true, the following are allowed. When include: false, the following are disallowed:

.foo {
  content: 'foo';

  .bar {
    content: 'bar';

    // Waldo
    &--baz {

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;
}

          color: #ffffff;

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.

.literal {
  color: mediumslateblue;
}

.linear-gradient-func {
  background: linear-gradient(top, #fff, white);
}

.box-shadow {
  box-shadow: 1px 1px black, 1px 1px black;

}

.hsl {
  color: hsl(40, 50%, 50%);
}

.hsla {
  color: hsla(40, 50%, 50%, .3);
