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.
