Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-django-sass-processor on Kali Linux.

What is python3-django-sass-processor

python3-django-sass-processor is:

django-sass-processor converts *.scss or *.sass files into *.css while rendering templates. For performance reasons this is done only once, since the preprocessor keeps track on the timestamps and only recompiles, if any of the imported SASS/SCSS files is younger than the corresponding generated CSS file.

This Django app provides a templatetag {% sass_src ‘path/to/file.scss’ %}, which can be used instead of the built-in templatetag static. Since version 0.3.4 this also works for Jinja2 templates.

If SASS/SCSS files shall be referenced through the Media class, or media property, the SASS processor can be used directly.

Additionally, django-sass-processor is shipped with a management command, which can convert the content of all occurrences inside the templatetag sass_src as an offline operation. Hence the libsass compiler is not required in a production environment.

During development, a sourcemap <https://developer.chrome.com="" devtools="" docs="" css-preprocessors="">__ is generated along side with the compiled *.css file. This allows one to debug style sheet errors much easier.

With this tool, you can safely remove your Ruby installations “Compass” and “SASS” from your Django projects. You neither need any directory “watching” daemons based on node.js.
