Stencil CLI - Stencil Server emulator for local theme development

Build Status

Install

$ npm install -g bigcommerce/stencil-cli

Usage

$ stencil init - Run this at the top level of your Stencil Theme. It will ask you a few questions to get your started.
$ stencil start - Run this to start developing your theme.

  • Run with -o or --open to automatically open up a browser.
  • While stencil is running, you can type rs and then hit enter to auto-reload all browsers. This is similar to Nodemon's rs option.

BrowserSync

Stencil CLI comes packaged with BrowserSync so you can take advantage of all of those amazing goodies! Have a look at their website for more information: http://www.browsersync.io/

SASS Compiling

You are able to compile your CSS using SASS (node-sass) by placing your .scss files in assets/scss/. For example, add a scss file named theme.scss to assets/scss/ and in your theme add {{{stylesheet 'assets/css/theme.css'}}} to your html template. Stencil-CLI will compile theme.scss to css on the fly.

Autoprefixer

Stencil CLI comes packaged with Autoprefixer. You can set which browsers that should be targeted as well as if it should cascade the generated rules in the theme's config.json file with these options:

  • autoprefixer_cascade - Defaults to true
  • autoprefixer_browsers - Defaults to ["> 5% in US"]
