= inline-style

== Description

Will take all css in a page (either from linked stylesheet or from style tag) and will embed it in the style attribute for each refered element taking selector specificity and declarator order.

Useful for html email: some clients (gmail, et all) won't render non inline styles.

Includes a Rack middleware for using with Rails, Sinatra, etc...
Includes a interceptor for the mail gem which allows automatic inline processing for both mail as well as ActionMailer.
It takes into account selector specificity.

== Usage

gem 'maca-fork-csspool' # this is optional if csspool is required inline-style will resort to it for css parsing, otherwise it will use the pure ruby css_parser
require 'csspool'       # csspool should be faster because it uses librcroco written in C wich can also be an issue, use css_parser if you deploy to heroku

require 'inline-style'

html  = File.read("./index.html")
puts InlineStyle.process(html, :stylesheets_paths => "./styles")

index.html contains:

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
* {
  font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;
  margin: 4px 3px 2px 1px;
  padding: 0;
}

#list {
  margin: 10;
}

#list li {
  font-family: Arial;
}

.element {
  padding: 10;
}

.odd {
  background-color: black;
}

.pair {
  background-color: red;
}

</style>

<ul id='number' class='listing inlined' style='background-color: yellow'>
  <li class='list-element odd'>
    <span>1</span>
  </li>
  <li class='list-element pair'>
    <span>2</span>
  </li>
  <li class='list-element odd'>
    <span>3</span>
  </li>
  <li class='list-element pair'>
    <span>4</span>
  </li>
</ul>

Will become:

<ul id="number" class="listing inlined" style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;background-color: yellow;'>
  <li class="list-element odd" style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;background-color: black;'>
    <span style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;'>1</span>
  </li>
  <li class="list-element pair" style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;background-color: red;'>
    <span style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;'>2</span>
  </li>
  <li class="list-element odd" style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;background-color: black;'>
    <span style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;'>3</span>
  </li>
  <li class="list-element pair" style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;background-color: red;'>
    <span style='font-family: "Lucida Grande", Lucida, Verdana, sans-serif;margin: 4.0px 3.0px 2.0px 1.0px;padding: 0.0;'>4</span>
  </li>
</ul>

== Rack Middleware:

# Process all routes:
use InlineStyle::Rack::Middleware

# Restrict processing to single route:
use InlineStyle::Rack::Middleware, :paths => %r(/mails/.*)

# Restrict processing to some routes:
use InlineStyle::Rack::Middleware, :paths => [%r(/mails/.*), "/somepath"]

== Mail Interceptor

If using the mail library the following code will work:

Mail.register_interceptor \ InlineStyle::Mail::Interceptor.new(:stylesheets_path => 'public')

If using ActionMailer (which wraps mail):

ActionMailer::Base.register_interceptor \ InlineStyle::Mail::Interceptor.new(:stylesheets_path => 'public')
