libsass: SASS for Python

This package provides a simple Python extension module sass which is binding Libsass (written in C/C++ by Hampton Catlin and Aaron Leung). It's very straightforward and there isn't any headache related Python distribution/deployment. That means you can add just libsass into your setup.py's install_requires list or requirements.txt file. Need no Ruby nor Node.js.

It currently supports CPython 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, and PyPy 1.9!

Install

It's available on PyPI, so you can install it using easy_install or pip:

$ easy_install libsass

Example

>>> import sass
>>> print sass.compile(string='a { b { color: blue; } }')
a b {
  color: blue; }
