Springer Nature Stylelint Configuration
Shareable Stylelint config used at Springer Nature for linting sass using the scss syntax.
This plugin extends standard stylelint configurations with rules used by SpringerNature.
[!IMPORTANT]
As of version2.0.0of this configuration all code format rules have been removed, and you should be using this in conjunction with our prettier configuration.
Requirements
Although this configuration can be used with different kind of setups (i.e. Gulp or Webpack) or directly used from the IDE, the current package was created to be used with the Frontend Tooling found on the same repository.
This package requires:
- Node version 22 or greater
stylelint@^16.23.0stylelint-config-recommended-scss@^15.0.1stylelint-order@^7.0.0
Installation
Our default export contains all of our Stylelint rules.
stylelint is defined in peerDependencies, which means that you will need to add these to your own project's devDependencies.
Install our config and all it's required dependencies to your devDependencies with the following command:
npm install -D stylelint@^16.23.0 stylelint-config-recommended-scss@^15.0.1 stylelint-order@^7.0.0 @springernature/stylelint-configUsage
You then need to setup the configuration so it can be used in your project.
Create a file called
.stylelintrc.jsonin your root folder.Inside the file add:
{
"extends": ["@springernature/stylelint-config"]
}- Run
stylelint, specifying thescsssyntax
stylelint './path/to/scss/*.scss'- Run stylelint fixing issues automatically (not all are fixable).
stylelint './path/to/scss/*.scss' --fix- Add
stylelintscripts to your package.json
"stylelint": "stylelint '**/*.scss'",
"stylelint-fix": "stylelint '**/*.scss' --fix"Extending the configuration
Although this configuration is already quite comprehensive, you can extend it with your own rules or plugins.
You can add more rules or plugins by following the stylelint config format, for example:
{
"extends": ["@springernature/stylelint-config"],
"rules": {
"declaration-property-unit-allowed-list": {
"/^border/": ["px"],
"/^padding|^gap/": ["rem"]
},
"unit-allowed-list": ["%", "deg", "px", "rem", "ms"]
}
}IDE Plugins
One of the big advantages of Stylelint is that most of the major IDE's have a plugin that can help you write the code without the need to run Stylelint.
- VScode has a very good plugin for Stylelint. Follow the instructions on this article to help set it up.
- Intellij also has a plugin for Stylelint.
- SublimeText can use the SublimeLinter-stylelint plugin.
