# postcss-loader
Loader to process CSS with [`PostCSS`](https://github.com/postcss/postcss).
## Getting Started
You need webpack v5 to use the latest version. For Webpack v4, you have to install postcss-loader v4.
To begin, you'll need to install `postcss-loader` and `postcss`:
```consolenpm install --save-dev postcss-loader postcss```
Then add the plugin to your `webpack` config. For example:
> In the following configuration the plugin [`postcss-preset-env`](https://github.com/csstools/postcss-preset-env) is used, which is not installed by default.
**file.js**
```jsimport css from "file.css";```
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: [ [ "postcss-preset-env", { // Options }, ], ], }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
Alternative use with [config files](#config):
**postcss.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { plugins: [ [ "postcss-preset-env", { // Options }, ], ],};```
The loader **automatically** searches for configuration files.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: ["style-loader", "css-loader", "postcss-loader"], }, ], },};```
And run `webpack` via your preferred method.
## Options
| Name | Type | Default | Description || :---------------------------------: | :------------------: | :-----------------------------------: | :------------------------------------------- || [`execute`](#execute) | `{Boolean}` | `undefined` | Enable PostCSS Parser support in `CSS-in-JS` || [`postcssOptions`](#postcssOptions) | `{Object\|Function}` | `defaults values for Postcss.process` | Set `PostCSS` options and plugins || [`sourceMap`](#sourcemap) | `{Boolean}` | `compiler.devtool` | Enables/Disables generation of source maps || [`implementation`](#implementation) | `{Function\|String}` | `postcss` | Setup PostCSS implementation to use |
### `execute`
Type: `Boolean`Default: `undefined`
If you use JS styles the [`postcss-js`](https://github.com/postcss/postcss-js) parser, add the `execute` option.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.style.js$/, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { parser: "postcss-js", }, execute: true, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
### `postcssOptions`
Type: `Object|Function`Default: `undefined`
Allows to set [`PostCSS options`](https://postcss.org/api/#processoptions) and plugins.
All `PostCSS` options are supported.There is the special `config` option for config files. How it works and how it can be configured is described below.
We recommend do not specify `from`, `to` and `map` options, because this can lead to wrong path in source maps.If you need source maps please use the [`sourcemap`](#sourcemap) option.
#### `Object`
Setup `plugins`:
**webpack.config.js** (**recommended**)
```jsconst myOtherPostcssPlugin = require("postcss-my-plugin");
module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.sss$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: [ "postcss-import", ["postcss-short", { prefix: "x" }], require.resolve("my-postcss-plugin"), myOtherPostcssPlugin({ myOption: true }), // Deprecated and will be removed in the next major release { "postcss-nested": { preserveEmpty: true } }, ], }, }, }, ], },};```
**webpack.config.js** (**deprecated**, will be removed in the next major release)
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.sss$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: { "postcss-import": {}, "postcss-short": { prefix: "x" }, }, }, }, }, ], },};```
Setup `syntax`:
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.sss$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { // Can be `String` syntax: "sugarss", // Can be `Object` syntax: require("sugarss"), }, }, }, ], },};```
Setup `parser`:
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.sss$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { // Can be `String` parser: "sugarss", // Can be `Object` parser: require("sugarss"), // Can be `Function` parser: require("sugarss").parse, }, }, }, ], },};```
Setup `stringifier`:
**webpack.config.js**
```jsconst Midas = require("midas");const midas = new Midas();
module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.sss$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { // Can be `String` stringifier: "sugarss", // Can be `Object` stringifier: require("sugarss"), // Can be `Function` stringifier: midas.stringifier, }, }, }, ], },};```
#### `Function`
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.(css|sss)$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: (loaderContext) => { if (/\.sss$/.test(loaderContext.resourcePath)) { return { parser: "sugarss", plugins: [ ["postcss-short", { prefix: "x" }], "postcss-preset-env", ], }; }
return { plugins: [ ["postcss-short", { prefix: "x" }], "postcss-preset-env", ], }; }, }, }, ], },};```
#### `config`
Type: `Boolean|String`Default: `undefined`
Allows to set options using config files.Options specified in the config file are combined with options passed to the loader, the loader options overwrite options from config.
##### Config Files
The loader will search up the directory tree for configuration in the following places:
- a `postcss` property in `package.json`- a `.postcssrc` file in JSON or YAML format- a `.postcssrc.json`, `.postcssrc.yaml`, `.postcssrc.yml`, `.postcssrc.js`, or `.postcssrc.cjs` file- a `postcss.config.js` or `postcss.config.cjs` CommonJS module exporting an object (**recommended**)
##### Examples of Config Files
Using `Object` notation:
**postcss.config.js** (**recommend**)
```jsmodule.exports = { // You can specify any options from https://postcss.org/api/#processoptions here // parser: 'sugarss', plugins: [ // Plugins for PostCSS ["postcss-short", { prefix: "x" }], "postcss-preset-env", ],};```
Using `Function` notation:
**postcss.config.js** (**recommend**)
```jsmodule.exports = (api) => { // `api.file` - path to the file // `api.mode` - `mode` value of webpack, please read https://webpack.js.org/configuration/mode/ // `api.webpackLoaderContext` - loader context for complex use cases // `api.env` - alias `api.mode` for compatibility with `postcss-cli` // `api.options` - the `postcssOptions` options
if (/\.sss$/.test(api.file)) { return { // You can specify any options from https://postcss.org/api/#processoptions here parser: "sugarss", plugins: [ // Plugins for PostCSS ["postcss-short", { prefix: "x" }], "postcss-preset-env", ], }; }
return { // You can specify any options from https://postcss.org/api/#processoptions here plugins: [ // Plugins for PostCSS ["postcss-short", { prefix: "x" }], "postcss-preset-env", ], };};```
**postcss.config.js** (**deprecated**, will be removed in the next major release)
```jsmodule.exports = { // You can specify any options from https://postcss.org/api/#processoptions here // parser: 'sugarss', plugins: { // Plugins for PostCSS "postcss-short": { prefix: "x" }, "postcss-preset-env": {}, },};```
##### Config Cascade
You can use different `postcss.config.js` files in different directories.Config lookup starts from `path.dirname(file)` and walks the file tree upwards until a config file is found.
```|– components| |– component| | |– index.js| | |– index.png| | |– style.css (1)| | |– postcss.config.js (1)| |– component| | |– index.js| | |– image.png| | |– style.css (2)||– postcss.config.js (1 && 2 (recommended))|– webpack.config.js||– package.json```
After setting up your `postcss.config.js`, add `postcss-loader` to your `webpack.config.js`.You can use it standalone or in conjunction with `css-loader` (recommended).
Use it **before** `css-loader` and `style-loader`, but **after** other preprocessor loaders like e.g `sass|less|stylus-loader`, if you use any (since [webpack loaders evaluate right to left/bottom to top](https://webpack.js.org/concepts/loaders/#configuration)).
**webpack.config.js** (**recommended**)
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { importLoaders: 1, }, }, "postcss-loader", ], }, ], },};```
#### Boolean
Enables/Disables autoloading config.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { config: false, }, }, }, ], },};```
#### String
Allows to specify the path to the config file.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsconst path = require("path");
module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { config: path.resolve(__dirname, "custom.config.js"), }, }, }, ], },};```
### `sourceMap`
Type: `Boolean`Default: depends on the `compiler.devtool` value
By default generation of source maps depends on the [`devtool`](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/devtool/) option.All values enable source map generation except `eval` and `false` value.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ { loader: "style-loader" }, { loader: "css-loader", options: { sourceMap: true } }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { sourceMap: true } }, { loader: "sass-loader", options: { sourceMap: true } }, ], }, ], },};```
Alternative setup:
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { devtool: "source-map", module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ { loader: "style-loader" }, { loader: "css-loader" }, { loader: "postcss-loader" }, { loader: "sass-loader" }, ], }, ], },};```
### `implementation`
Type: `Function | String`Default: `postcss`
The special `implementation` option determines which implementation of PostCSS to use. Overrides the locally installed `peerDependency` version of `postcss`.
**This option is only really useful for downstream tooling authors to ease the PostCSS 7-to-8 transition.**
#### Function
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ { loader: "style-loader" }, { loader: "css-loader" }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { implementation: require("postcss") }, }, { loader: "sass-loader" }, ], }, ], },};```
#### String
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ { loader: "style-loader" }, { loader: "css-loader" }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { implementation: require.resolve("postcss") }, }, { loader: "sass-loader" }, ], }, ], },};```
## Examples
### SugarSS
You'll need to install `sugarss`:
```consolenpm install --save-dev sugarss```
Using [`SugarSS`](https://github.com/postcss/sugarss) syntax.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.sss$/i, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { importLoaders: 1 }, }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { parser: "sugarss", }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
### Autoprefixer
You'll need to install `autoprefixer`:
```consolenpm install --save-dev autoprefixer```
Add vendor prefixes to CSS rules using [`autoprefixer`](https://github.com/postcss/autoprefixer).
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { importLoaders: 1 }, }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: [ [ "autoprefixer", { // Options }, ], ], }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
> :warning: [`postcss-preset-env`](https://github.com/csstools/postcss-preset-env) includes [`autoprefixer`](https://github.com/postcss/autoprefixer), so adding it separately is not necessary if you already use the preset. More [information](https://github.com/csstools/postcss-preset-env#autoprefixer)
### PostCSS Preset Env
You'll need to install `postcss-preset-env`:
```consolenpm install --save-dev postcss-preset-env```
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { importLoaders: 1 }, }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: [ [ "postcss-preset-env", { // Options }, ], ], }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
### CSS Modules
What is `CSS Modules`? Please [read](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/css-loader#modules).
No additional options required on the `postcss-loader` side.To make them work properly, either add the `css-loader`’s `importLoaders` option.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { modules: true, importLoaders: 1, }, }, "postcss-loader", ], }, ], },};```
### CSS-in-JS and [`postcss-js`](https://github.com/postcss/postcss-js)
You'll need to install `postcss-js`:
```consolenpm install --save-dev postcss-js```
If you want to process styles written in JavaScript, use the [`postcss-js`](https://github.com/postcss/postcss-js) parser.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.style.js$/, use: [ "style-loader", { loader: "css-loader", options: { importLoaders: 2, }, }, { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { parser: "postcss-js", }, execute: true, }, }, "babel-loader", ], }, ], },};```
As result you will be able to write styles in the following way
```jsimport colors from "./styles/colors";
export default { ".menu": { color: colors.main, height: 25, "&_link": { color: "white", }, },};```
> :warning: If you are using Babel you need to do the following in order for the setup to work
> 1. Add [`babel-plugin-add-module-exports`](https://github.com/59naga/babel-plugin-add-module-exports) to your configuration.
> 2. You need to have only one **default** export per style module.
### Extract CSS
Using [`mini-css-extract-plugin`](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/mini-css-extract-plugin).
**webpack.config.js**
```jsconst isProductionMode = process.env.NODE_ENV === "production";
const MiniCssExtractPlugin = require("mini-css-extract-plugin");
module.exports = { mode: isProductionMode ? "production" : "development", module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/, use: [ isProductionMode ? MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader : "style-loader", "css-loader", "postcss-loader", ], }, ], }, plugins: [ new MiniCssExtractPlugin({ filename: isProductionMode ? "[name].[contenthash].css" : "[name].css", }), ],};```
### Emit assets
To write a asset from PostCSS plugin to the webpack, need to add a message in `result.messages`.
The message should contain the following fields:
- `type` = `asset` - Message type (require, should be equal `asset`)- `file` - file name (require)- `content` - file content (require)- `sourceMap` - sourceMap- `info` - asset info
**webpack.config.js**
```jsconst customPlugin = () => (css, result) => { result.messages.push({ type: "asset", file: "sprite.svg", content: "<svg>...</svg>", });};
const postcssPlugin = postcss.plugin("postcss-assets", customPlugin);
module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: [postcssPlugin()], }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
### Add dependencies, contextDependencies, buildDependencies, missingDependencies
The dependencies are necessary for webpack to understand when it needs to run recompilation on the changed files.
There are two way to add dependencies:
1. (Recommended). The plugin may emit messages in `result.messages`.
The message should contain the following fields:
- `type` = `dependency` - Message type (require, should be equal `dependency`, `context-dependency`, `build-dependency` or `missing-dependency`)- `file` - absolute file path (require)
**webpack.config.js**
```jsconst path = require("path");
const customPlugin = () => (css, result) => { result.messages.push({ type: "dependency", file: path.resolve(__dirname, "path", "to", "file"), });};
const postcssPlugin = postcss.plugin("postcss-assets", customPlugin);
module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { plugins: [postcssPlugin()], }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
2. Pass `loaderContext` in plugin.
**webpack.config.js**
```jsconst path = require("path");
module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/i, use: [ "style-loader", "css-loader", { loader: "postcss-loader", options: { postcssOptions: { config: path.resolve(__dirname, "path/to/postcss.config.js"), }, }, }, ], }, ], },};```
**postcss.config.js**
```jsmodule.exports = (api) => ({ plugins: [ require("path/to/customPlugin")({ loaderContext: api.webpackLoaderContext, }), ],});```
**customPlugin.js**
```jsconst path = require("path");
const customPlugin = (loaderContext) => (css, result) => { loaderContext.webpack.addDependency( path.resolve(__dirname, "path", "to", "file") );};
module.exports = postcss.plugin("postcss-assets", customPlugin);```
