I'd like to incorporate fontawesome icons on my Foundation Sass project and I am having an issue. I have done everything as suggested by fontawesome team and yet it is not working...
I bower installed the fontawesome
I have added the scss file to the config.yml
I have changed the path name to fonts folder
https://postimg.org/gallery/1h018wsm8/
What I get in my browser is weird symbols and for some reason it is not working. Can you please tell me what I am missing? Thanks...
You have to #import the scss file from the bower_components folder in your Foundation _settings.scss or app.scss file.
The reference you have in config.yml is the PATH to the plugin/module not the import of the actual scss file. What this does is copy the *.scss files to the dist directory, but they still require referencing from your site/app code.
e.g. I use app.scss to import the various scss files and so my #import command for Font Awesome is:
#import '../../../bower_components/font-awesome/scss/font-awesome';
Note: this is to the specific file font-awesome.scss (where you set the font files path), not the whole directory so you also need to make sure you import the font files too which can be done via gulpfile.babel.js + config.yml.

I am trying to import Bootstrap 4's bootstrap.scss file as described in Bootstrap's theming documentation. My IDE is PyCharm. My ultimate goal is to override Bootstrap 4's colors by importing bootstrap and overriding certain aspects that I want.
The problem is, I can't seem to import bootstrap.scss into my custom.scss file relative to the node_modules directory in my project.
Here is the structure of my project:
learnsass
- learnsass <-- main Django project files (ex: settings.py)
- myapp
- static
- myapp
- css
- custom.scss <-- file I'm trying to import bootstrap from
- custom.css <-- automatically generated from file watcher
- custom.css.map <-- automatically generated from file watcher
- ...
- node_modules
- bootstrap
- dist
- js
- scss
- bootstrap.scss <-- the bootstrap scss I'm trying to import in custom.scss
- ...
- jquery
- popper.js
- static
- templates
- venv
- db.sqlite3
- manage.py
- package.json
- package-lock.json
custom.scss
My custom.scss file looks like this.
$theme-colors: (
"primary": #cccccc,
"danger": #840383,
);
#import "~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
A terminal with the output message shows "Error: Can't find stylesheet to import."
cmd.exe /D /C call C:\Users\Jarad\AppData\Roaming\npm\sass.cmd custom.scss:custom.css
Error: Can't find stylesheet to import.
╷
5 │ #import "~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
│ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
╵
custom.scss 5:9 root stylesheet
Process finished with exit code 65
I've tried setting the node_modules root as "Resource Root" directory. I've even tried setting its subdirectories as "Resource Root" directories or "Sources Root", but no combination I tried worked.
In PyCharm, I have created a File Watcher so the scss gets compiled into custom.css automatically. These were my settings there. Maybe I'm doing something wrong here?
I did find one solution that works (use full absolute path)
I noticed if I use the full absolute path on my Windows machine (seen below), it actually does work (the custom.css file gets generated with all Bootstrap css):
$theme-colors: (
"primary": #cccccc,
"danger": #840383,
);
#import "C:/Users/Jarad/Documents/PyCharm/learnsass/node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss";
But I'd really like to UNDERSTAND why it's not importing using relative / sass / scss common practices. I'm not looking for a quick-fix or anything hacky. Plus, full absolute URL import is a pretty breakable kind of thing.
The reason I was getting the Error: Can't find stylesheet to import. is because I didn't realize a critical thing - Bootstrap #imports from within custom.scss are relative to where custom.scss exists within your project.
From UX Planet:
Notice: The Bootstrap #import paths are relative to the custom.scss,
and will vary depending on your project environment.
When you do #import, you need to define a path from custom.scss to the Bootstrap .scss location.
A few examples:
# custom.scss lives inside static/project/scss/
#import "../../../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
# custom.scss lives inside node_modules
#import "bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";
# custom.scss lives inside the root of the project
#import "node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap";

How to import scss files from ember addon to consumers app(should import scss files and not processed css file, scss should be processed in consumer's app instead).
Details:
I am developing an addon and I am using sass for design, I want to let my users configure css properties from addon. For this I want to import scss files directly into the consumers app(I don't want them to use already compiled to css file that would go to vendor.css file) and override some of the variable's value.
Here is the plan on how it should work:
I have a configuration scss file, which has several variables I want to be configurable, user can override these variables by first including their own configuration scss file and our scss file below that(more details on how scss variables can be made overridable and are overriden).
The file structure for addon/styles is as follows:
I have imported all css files inside addon.scss as follows:
#import 'config';
#import 'helpers';
#import 'normalize';
#import 'base';
#import 'utilities';
#import 'modules';
#import 'datetime-picker';
#import 'fontawesome';
#import 'animation';
#import 'states';
The values I want my user to override are in _config.scss. Part of my _config.scss file looks like this:
$header-font: $font-sans !default;
$header-font-size: $small-font-size !default;
$header-font-type: normal !default;
I want user to provide their own value for variables like $header-font,$header-font-size and include before scss from my addon is included.
Ember version: 1.13.3
I have to import some stylesheets residing inside node_modules (bootstrap.css from node_modules, etc).
I tried by
adding styleUrls inside #Page,
putting the styles in the .scss file inside the page component folder,
and finally putting the styles inside the template file itself by creating new style tag... all with no luck, i.e the required styles are not getting applied on tags with appropriate classes.
How to do this ?
PN: I had imported the page scss for my components in app.core.scs.
Anyways, I think putting bootstrap.min.css inside page scss is not a
good way
Adding the above import doesn't seem to work in the latest version of Ionic2 (ionic -version = 2.1.4) that I installed on 10/25/16. There is no longer an app.core.scss file in newly created projects. But rather just variables.scss in src/app/theme.
There is a file app.scss in src/app that says it's for global SASS and importing other files, but adding an import for another page does not seem to make a difference.
I have a page /src/app/pages/about, in which I have about.ts that has styleUrls: ['about.scss']. The file about.scss is in the same directory. Putting #import "../pages/about/about"; at the bottom of that file makes no difference.
UPDATE:
I have finally got it to work with this in about.ts:
styleUrls: ['/pages/about/about.scss']
I'm not sure if this is the best way yet, but it works for now.
#import "../pages/yourpage/yourpage"
Add this line in app/themes/app.core.scss and rebuild. Of course change yourpage expression.
I have a project that I would like to use foundation 5 with. I have been through the steps of creating a new foundation project using the CLI but I don't like it. There is too many files and the structure does not match what I want. So...
I am intending to add only the required files to my project and use compass to compile all the css.
I have noticed in the project created on the CLI a few things that confuse me and would like some help in clearing them up.
In the project created on the CLI there are two _settings.scss files one under the foundation directory in bower_components and one in MY_PROJECT\scss. I'm assuming that because of this add_import_path "bower_components/foundation/scss" line in the config.rb, which of those files has preference?
Why does MY_PROJECT/stylesheets not have normalize.css (or foundation.css) in it? And how are they not there? (in my custom setup they are being generated, albeit in subdirectories of stylesheets, also the foundation.css that is being generated for me has no settings changes applied so I guess it shouldn't be being generated)
If you take a look inside \bower_components\foundation\scss you'll see the file foundation.scss. That file imports all the stylesheets for all the additional components that come in the Foundation 5 "package." In your root scss directory, the app.scss is what compiles the SASS into \stylesheets\app.css. So rather than this:
#import "foundation";
Uncomment the individual components you'll be using. Something like this:
#import
//"foundation/components/accordion",
//"foundation/components/alert-boxes",
"foundation/components/block-grid",
//"foundation/components/breadcrumbs",
//"foundation/components/button-groups",
//"foundation/components/buttons",
"foundation/components/clearing",
"foundation/components/dropdown",
//"foundation/components/dropdown-buttons",
//"foundation/components/flex-video",
"foundation/components/forms",
"foundation/components/grid",
//"foundation/components/inline-lists",
//"foundation/components/joyride",
//"foundation/components/keystrokes",
//"foundation/components/labels",
//"foundation/components/magellan",
//"foundation/components/orbit",
//"foundation/components/pagination",
//"foundation/components/panels",
//"foundation/components/pricing-tables",
//"foundation/components/progress-bars",
"foundation/components/reveal",
"foundation/components/side-nav",
//"foundation/components/split-buttons",
"foundation/components/sub-nav",
//"foundation/components/switches",
"foundation/components/tables",
//"foundation/components/tabs",
//"foundation/components/thumbs",
//"foundation/components/tooltips",
"foundation/components/top-bar",
"foundation/components/type",
"foundation/components/offcanvas",
"foundation/components/visibility";
If you'd like to streamline your file structure, I would suggest you remove any scss files from the \bower_components\foundation\scss\foundation\components directory that you will not use. Same with the js directory. You don't actually need to modify anything in the bower_components directory to get everything to work. Not entirely sure why it's all contained within bower_components, but I imagine it's got something to do with being able to update the core components later with future releases.
Someone else could probably give a more educated answer.
p.s. - make sure to compass watch in your CLI to see any of those changes made to your SASS files.
The problem
Foundation 5 was released last week, that's great, but the new version requires to use bower for using F5 with SASS and the official documentation seems to be a bit incomplete and immature.
I'm trying to create a project using the steps proposed by the docs:
[sudo] npm install -g bower
and then
gem install foundation
No problems here. The problem is when creating a Compass project:
foundation new MY_PROJECT
cd MY_PROJECT
compass compile
After Compass compilation, I get the following error:
directory stylesheets/
error scss/app.scss (Line 1: File to import not found or unreadable: settings.
Load paths:
/home/cartucho/MY_PROJECT/scss
/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/compass-0.12.2/frameworks/blueprint/stylesheets
/var/lib/gems/1.9.1/gems/compass-0.12.2/frameworks/compass/stylesheets
/home/cartucho/MY_PROJECT/bower_components/foundation/scss
Compass::SpriteImporter)
create stylesheets/app.css
Compass config file (config.rb):
# Require any additional compass plugins here.
add_import_path "bower_components/foundation/scss"
# Set this to the root of your project when deployed:
http_path = "/"
css_dir = "stylesheets"
sass_dir = "scss"
images_dir = "images"
javascripts_dir = "javascripts"
The SASS file (app.sass):
#import "settings";
#import "foundation";
...
The problem seems to be in config.rb:
add_import_path "bower_components/foundation/scss"
because Compass fail trying to import the files settings and foundation but I don't know how to fix it. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
You need to change the line foundation new MY_PROJECT by replacing MY_PROJECT with the folder you want to install the project on. After that, confirm that these folders exist on the directory you specified above - "bower_components/foundation/scss"
When starting a project run compass init and then compass watch (in Terminal) to watch for changes on the .sass files.
Personally, I don't go that route and use http://koala-app.com/ to convert or "compile" my Sass. It's FREE and awesome.
This is SASS were talking about. Please correct me if i'm wrong but you don't need the underscore when importing an "include" file. I create separate sass files for my variables and my mix-ins. They are prefixed with and underscore which signifies an "include" file. SASS recognizes #import "variables"; as #import "_variables.scss". So to be clear when it is an include file just the name of the sass file is need not the _ or the scss extension.
I have never put an underscore before any include file that I have named _filename.scss.
There is probably another issue going on. Possibly with the install and the paths for bower. For those who did add the underscore in the past and it worked...well you just bypass what could become a deeper issue down the road. You need to check your install.
In your app.sass file change the following line
#import "settings";
To
#import "_settings";
Explaination
When you run compass watch you got the error
error scss/app.scss (Line 1: File to import not found or unreadable: settings.
This just means it can't find the settings file being imported. By adding the underscore to the settings file you have specified the correct file path. If you receive any other errors like this, make sure the file path is correct.
I think I had the same error; finally I found in the _settings.scss
You need to underscore before the importing the functions
Before:
// Uncomment to use rem-calc() in your settings
#import "foundation/functions";
After:
// Uncomment to use rem-calc() in your settings
#import "foundation/_functions";
Also you would need to import the settings same way.
In my example I made style.scss and import all the SCSS inside :
#import "foundation/_settings", "_normalize", "_foundation";
I encountered this same issue, but for me the solution was to change the import of settings in app.scss from:
#import "settings";
To:
#import "foundation/_settings";
Once you've done that, run compass watch again.
You can install Grunt into your project which uses compass's watch function and then some other clever stuff to compile your sass and livereload it in the browser! Here's a great tutorial on how to get it up and running! (it's as simple as creating two new files in the root of your project and then running a few commands from your command line! I seriously advise it!)

I had the same problem.
For Ubuntu 14.04 users make sure nodejs and Bower are working properly.
