|
The `@use` rule loads [mixins](mixin), [functions](function), and
|
|
[variables](../variables) from other Sass stylesheets, and combines CSS from
|
|
multiple stylesheets together. Stylesheets loaded by `@use` are called
|
|
"modules". Sass also provides [built-in modules](../modules) full of useful
|
|
functions.

|
|
|
The simplest `@use` rule is written `@use "<url>"`, which loads the module at
|
|
the given URL. Any styles loaded this way will be included exactly once in the
|
|
compiled CSS output, no matter how many times those styles are loaded.
|
|
|
|
<% heads_up do %>
|
|
A stylesheet's `@use` rules must come before any rules other than `@forward`,
|
|
including [style rules][]. However, you can declare variables before `@use`
|
|
rules to use when [configuring modules][].

## Loading Members
|
|
|
|
You can access variables, functions, and mixins from another module by writing
|
|
`<namespace>.<variable>`, `<namespace>.<function>()`, or `@include
|
|
<namespace>.<mixin>()`. By default, the namespace is just the last component of
|
|
the module's URL.
|
|
|
|
Members (variables, functions, and mixins) loaded with `@use` are only visible
|
|
in the stylesheet that loads them. Other stylesheets will need to write their
|
|
own `@use` rules if they also want to access them. This helps make it easy to
|
|
figure out exactly where each member is coming from. If you want to load members
|
|
from many files at once, you can use the [`@forward` rule][] to forward them all
|
|
from one shared file.
|
|
|
|
[`@forward` rule]: forward
|
|
|
|
<% fun_fact do %>
|
|
Because `@use` adds namespaces to member names, it's safe to choose very
|
|
simple names like `$radius` or `$width` when writing a stylesheet. This is
|
|
different from the old [`@import` rule][], which encouraged that users write
|
|
long names like `$mat-corner-radius` to avoid conflicts with other
|
|
libraries, and it helps keep your stylesheets clear and easy to read!
|
|
|
|
[`@import` rule]: import
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
<% example do %>
|
|
// src/_corners.scss
|
|
$radius: 3px;
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded {
|
|
border-radius: $radius;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// style.scss
|
|
@use "src/corners";
|
|
|
|
.button {
|
|
@include corners.rounded;
|
|
padding: 5px + corners.$radius;
|
|
}
|
|
===
|
|
// src/_corners.sass
|
|
$radius: 5px
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded
|
|
border-radius: $radius
|
|
---
|
|
// style.sass
|
|
@use "src/corners"
|
|
|
|
.button
|
|
@include corners.rounded
|
|
padding: 5px + corners.$radius
|
|
===
|
|
.button {
|
|
border-radius: 3px;
|
|
padding: 8px;
|
|
}
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
### Choosing a Namespace
|
|
|
|
By default, a module's namespace is just the last component of its URL without a
|
|
file extension. However, sometimes you might want to choose a different
|
|
namespace—you might want to use a shorter name for a module you refer to a lot,
|
|
or you might be loading multiple modules with the same filename. You can do this
|
|
by writing `@use "<url>" as <namespace>`.
|
|
|
|
<% example do %>
|
|
// src/_corners.scss
|
|
$radius: 3px;
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded {
|
|
border-radius: $radius;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// style.scss
|
|
@use "src/corners" as c;
|
|
|
|
.button {
|
|
@include c.rounded;
|
|
padding: 5px + c.$radius;
|
|
}
|
|
===
|
|
// src/_corners.sass
|
|
$radius: 5px
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded
|
|
border-radius: $radius
|
|
---
|
|
// style.sass
|
|
@use "src/corners" as c
|
|
|
|
.button
|
|
@include c.rounded
|
|
padding: 5px + c.$radius
|
|
===
|
|
.button {
|
|
border-radius: 3px;
|
|
padding: 8px;
|
|
}
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
You can even load a module *without* a namespace by writing `@use "<url>" as *`.
|
|
We recommend you only do this for stylesheets written by you, though; otherwise,
|
|
they may introduce new members that cause name conflicts!
|
|
|
|
<% example do %>
|
|
// src/_corners.scss
|
|
$radius: 3px;
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded {
|
|
border-radius: $radius;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// style.scss
|
|
@use "src/corners" as *;
|
|
|
|
.button {
|
|
@include rounded;
|
|
padding: 5px + $radius;
|
|
}
|
|
===
|
|
// src/_corners.sass
|
|
$radius: 5px
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded
|
|
border-radius: $radius
|
|
---
|
|
// style.sass
|
|
@use "src/corners" as *
|
|
|
|
.button
|
|
@include rounded
|
|
padding: 5px + $radius
|
|
===
|
|
.button {
|
|
border-radius: 3px;
|
|
padding: 8px;
|
|
}
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
### Private Members
|
|
|
|
As a stylesheet author, you may not want all the members you define to be
|
|
available outside your stylesheet. Sass makes it easy to define a private member
|
|
by starting its name with either `-` or `_`. These members will work just like
|
|
normal within the stylesheet that defines them, but they won't be part of a
|
|
module's public API. That means stylesheets that load your module can't see
|
|
them!
|
|
|
|
<% fun_fact do %>
|
|
If you want to make a member private to an entire *package* rather than just a
|
|
single module, just don't [forward its module][] from any of your package's
|
|
entrypoints (the stylesheets you tell your users to load to use your package).
|
|
You can even [hide that member][] while forwarding the rest of its module!
|
|
|
|
[forward its module]: forward
|
|
[hide that member]: forward#controlling-visibility
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
<% example(autogen_css: false) do %>
|
|
// src/_corners.scss
|
|
$-radius: 3px;
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded {
|
|
border-radius: $-radius;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// style.scss
|
|
@use "src/corners";
|
|
|
|
.button {
|
|
@include corners.rounded;
|
|
|
|
// This is an error! $-radius isn't visible outside of `_corners.scss`.
|
|
padding: 5px + corners.$-radius;
|
|
}
|
|
===
|
|
// src/_corners.sass
|
|
$-radius: 5px
|
|
|
|
@mixin rounded
|
|
border-radius: $radius
|
|
---
|
|
// style.sass
|
|
@use "src/corners"
|
|
|
|
.button
|
|
@include corners.rounded
|
|
|
|
// This is an error! $-radius isn't visible outside of `_corners.scss`.
|
|
padding: 5px + corners.$-radius
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
## Configuring Modules
|
|
|
|
A stylesheet can define variables with the [`!default` flag][] to make them
|
|
configurable. To load a module with configuration, write `@use <url> with
|
|
(<variable>: <value>, <variable>: <value>)`. The configured values will override
|
|
the variables' default values.
|
|
|
|
[`!default` flag]: ../variables#default-values
|
|
|
|
<%= partial '../../code-snippets/example-use-with' %>
|
|
|
|
## Finding the Module
|
|
|
|
It wouldn't be any fun to write out absolute URLs for every stylesheet you load,
|
|
so Sass's algorithm for finding a module makes it a little easier. For starters,
|
|
you don't have to explicitly write out the extension of the file you want to
|
|
load; `@use "variables"` will automatically load `variables.scss`,
|
|
`variables.sass`, or `variables.css`.
|
|
|
|
<% heads_up do %>
|
|
To ensure that stylesheets work on every operating system, Sass loads files by
|
|
*URL*, not by *file path*. This means you need to use forward slashes, not
|
|
backslashes, even on Windows.
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
### Load Paths
|
|
|
|
All Sass implementations allow users to provide *load paths*: paths on the
|
|
filesystem that Sass will look in when locating modules. For example, if you
|
|
pass `node_modules/susy/sass` as a load path, you can use `@use "susy"` to load
|
|
`node_modules/susy/sass/susy.scss`.
|
|
|
|
Modules will always be loaded relative to the current file first, though. Load
|
|
paths will only be used if no relative file exists that matches the module's
|
|
URL. This ensures that you can't accidentally mess up your relative imports when
|
|
you add a new library.
|
|
|
|
<% fun_fact do %>
|
|
Unlike some other languages, Sass doesn't require that you use `./` for
|
|
relative imports. Relative imports are always available.
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
### Partials
|
|
|
|
As a convention, Sass files that are only meant to be loaded as modules, not
|
|
compiled on their own, begin with `_` (as in `_code.scss`). These are called
|
|
*partials*, and they tell Sass tools not to try to compile those files on their
|
|
own. You can leave off the `_` when importing a partial.
|
|
|
|
### Index Files
|
|
|
|
If you write an `_index.scss` or `_index.sass` in a folder, the index file will
|
|
be loaded automatically. when you load the URL for the folder itself.
|
|
|
|
<% example do %>
|
|
// foundation/_code.scss
|
|
code {
|
|
padding: .25em;
|
|
line-height: 0;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// foundation/_lists.scss
|
|
ul, ol {
|
|
text-align: left;
|
|

|

|
|
}
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
## Loading CSS
|
|
|
|
In addition to loading `.sass` and `.scss` files, Sass can load plain old `.css`
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
<% example do %>
|
|
// code.css
|
|
code {
|
|
padding: .25em;
|
|
line-height: 0;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// style.scss
|
|
@use 'code';
|
|
===
|
|
// code.css
|
|
code {
|
|
padding: .25em;
|
|
line-height: 0;
|
|
}
|
|
---
|
|
// style.sass
|
|
@use 'code'
|
|
===
|
|
code {
|
|
padding: .25em;
|
|
line-height: 0;
|
|
}
|
|
<% end %>
|
|
|
|
CSS files loaded as modules don't allow any special Sass features and so can't
|
|
expose any Sass variables, functions, or mixins. In order to make sure authors
|
|
don't accidentally write Sass in their CSS, all Sass features that aren't also
|
|
valid CSS will produce errors. Otherwise, the CSS will be rendered as-is. It can
|
|
even be [extended][]!
|
|
|
|
[extended]: extend
|
