Creating a report of all defined variables

[lazytyper]

I am working on my own SCSS framework, which should consist of importable modules and overwritable variables. Import files can also contain such variables.

I've been looking for a way to output all variables, but haven't found one yet.

The advantage would have been: you could create an overview/documentation with all the variables used and their values. The list would also make it easier to optimize the framework.

Such a list could be generated by procuding a different output. Instead of a creating CSS code, a report could be generated:

Whenever a variable is defined or overwritten, a line or data set is output, with

• variable name
• the value
• is it a default value?
• file name and line number
• lines where other files are imported could also be output
• unused variables could also be listed

Hello, this request is something we won't be implementing as part of the main Sass repo.

However, I believe you can use SassDoc to generate a document with some of the data you're looking for. Otherwise, you'll have to develop your own tool to extract the data you're looking for.

By the way, if you're looking to implement a tool yourself that does this, you can use the sass_api (Dart) to process your Sass files.
