Oak Sass Parser

A high-performance Sass/SCSS parser for Rust, built with the Oak parser combinator framework. Parse stylesheets with comprehensive AST generation and error handling.

Overview

Oak Sass provides robust parsing capabilities for Sass and SCSS stylesheet files, supporting variables, mixins, functions, nesting, and all major Sass constructs. Built on the Oak parser combinator framework, it delivers excellent performance and detailed error messages.

Quick Start

Parsing Examples

Basic SCSS Parsing

use oak::{Parser, Language};
use oak_sass::SassLanguage;

fn main() {
    let source = r#"
        $primary-color: #3498db;
        $secondary-color: #2ecc71;
        $font-size: 16px;
        
        .button {
            background-color: $primary-color;
            color: white;
            padding: 10px 20px;
            border-radius: 5px;
            
            &:hover {
                background-color: darken($primary-color, 10%);
            }
            
            &.large {
                font-size: $font-size * 1.2;
                padding: 15px 30px;
            }
        }
    "#;
    
    let mut parser = Parser::<SassLanguage>::new();
    match parser.parse(&source) {
        Ok(ast) => {
            println!("Parsed AST: {:#?}", ast);
        }
        Err(error) => {
            eprintln!("Parse error: {}", error);
        }
    }
}

Advanced Mixins and Functions

use oak::{Parser, Language};
use oak_sass::SassLanguage;

fn main() {
    let source = r#"
        @mixin flex-center {
            display: flex;
            justify-content: center;
            align-items: center;
        }
        
        @function rem($pixels, $base: 16px) {
            @return $pixels / $base * 1rem;
        }
        
        @mixin responsive-font($min-size, $max-size, $min-width: 320px, $max-width: 1200px) {
            font-size: $min-size;
            
            @media screen and (min-width: $min-width) {
                font-size: calc(#{$min-size} + #{strip-unit($max-size - $min-size)} * 
                    ((100vw - #{$min-width}) / #{strip-unit($max-width - $min-width)}));
            }
            
            @media screen and (min-width: $max-width) {
                font-size: $max-size;
            }
        }
        
        .container {
            @include flex-center;
            min-height: 100vh;
            
            .content {
                @include responsive-font(14px, 24px);
                padding: rem(20px);
                max-width: rem(800px);
            }
        }
    "#;
    
    let mut parser = Parser::<SassLanguage>::new();
    match parser.parse(&source) {
        Ok(ast) => {
            println!("Advanced Sass parsed successfully!");
        }
        Err(error) => {
            eprintln!("Parse error: {}", error);
        }
    }
}

Advanced Features

Nested Imports

Oak Sass supports parsing nested imports:

let source = r#"
    @import 'variables';
    @import 'mixins';
    
    @import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto');
"#;

Control Directives

Parse control directives like @if, @for, @each, and @while:

let source = r#"
    @for $i from 1 through 12 {
        .col-#{$i} {
            width: percentage($i / 12);
        }
    }
    
    @each $color in red, green, blue {
        .bg-#{$color} {
            background-color: $color;
        }
    }
"#;

AST Structure

The parser generates a rich AST with the following main node types:

SassFile - Root node containing the entire file
Variable - Variable declarations and references
Rule - CSS rules with selectors and declarations
Mixin - Mixin definitions and includes
Function - Function definitions and calls
Import - Import statements
Media - Media queries and blocks
Expression - Sass expressions and operations
AtRule - At-rules like @extend, @debug, @warn

Performance

Oak Sass is designed for high performance:

Zero-copy parsing where possible
Streaming support for large stylesheet files
Efficient memory usage with minimal allocations
Fast error recovery for better developer experience

Integration

Oak Sass integrates seamlessly with the Oak ecosystem:

use oak::{Parser, Language};
use oak_sass::SassLanguage;

// Use with other Oak parsers
let mut parser = Parser::<SassLanguage>::new();
let result = parser.parse(sass_source);
