No error when compass-include-once is required but not installed #240

Closed BendingBender closed 8 years ago

Hi,

I have the problem that when I use the require option to load a plugin (compass-include-once) but this plugin is not installed, there is no error thrown. Instead, compass is started up without the plugin, which leads to a very unpleasant result where large files are included multiple times. For me this results in my css file growing from ~2MB to ~9MB in size.

We have a large team and it is not easy to coordinate a manual plugin installation if nothing in the build fails.

Is there a possibility to make grunt-contrib-compass throw an error if a specified plugin can not be found?

What happens if you try to require something that isn't installed using the cli compass binary? If it also silently fails, there's nothing we can do here, and you'll have to ask in the compass issue tracker.

I'll give it a try.
