Atom Editor 插件 atom-less 的使用方法

一、下载安装 atom-less

atom-less 项目在这里：https://github.com/schmuli/atom-less

安装方法请参考这篇博文：http://blog.csdn.net/kingittiger/article/details/51881442

二、使用方法

atom-less 的使用略显奇葩。跟其它 LESS 插件不同，它需要在每个 less 文件的头部都写上配置行，编译器读取这行配置，才可以正常运作。好处是，不同的 less 就可以用不同的配置，做到灵活输出，不用频繁去设置全局参数。

1. 官方参考说明 README.md

# atom-less package

An Atom package that auto-compiles LESS files on save, with support for LESS plugins, Clean-CSS and AutoPrefixer.

### Configuration

On the first line of LESS files, add a valid JSON comment, not including the outer brackets (‘{‘ and ‘}‘), with the following properties:

- **"main"**: `string` -
    The relative or absolute path to the main LESS file to be compiled (ignores all other options)
- **"out"**: `boolean|string` -
    `true` to output using the filename, or a string specifying a name to use
- **"compress"**: `boolean` -
    Use Less.JS built-in compression (not compatible with Clean-CSS or Source Maps)
- **"strictMath"**: `boolean` -
    Require brackets around math expressions
- **"sourceMap"**: `boolean|Object` -
    `true` to turn on source maps, or an object specifying LESS source map properties
- **"cleancss"**: `string|object` -
    a string specifying the ‘compatibility‘ property,
    or an object specifying the Clean-CSS properties (not compatible with Source Maps)
- **"autoprefixer"**: `string|object` -
    a `;` separated string specifying the ‘browsers‘ property,
    or an object specifying the AutoPrefixer properties

Other LESS compiler options might work but are untested at this point.

### Road Map
1. Remove dependency on inline comments, and instead use a .lesscfg project file, allowing easier configuration and automatic support of additional LESS plugins
2. Change callback passing to use Promises

2. 常用选项配置

其实常用的选项就两个：out 和 compress。out 配置输出，compress 配置是否压缩。配置要写成 JSON 注释形式，但不包含花括号 { }。

配置形式：

// "<选项1>": "<配置1>", "<选项2>": "<配置2>", ...

下面举几个例子：

// "out": true                  ## 输出同名的 css 文件，不压缩
// "out": "test.css"               ## 输出名为 test.css 文件，不压缩
// "out": true, "compress": true     ## 输出名为 test.css 文件，压缩
