Style Resources for Nuxt 3 - Nobody likes extra @import statements!

Nuxt 2 is supported with @nuxtjs/style-resources@^1, documentation is on v1 branch.

If you are using Vite, this module is not needed.

You can use the css.preprocessorOptions instead.

Features

Share variables, mixins, functions across all style files (no @import needed)
Support for SASS, LESS and Stylus
Aliases (~/assets/variables.css) and globbing as supported
Support for hoisting @use imports
Compatible with Nuxt's build.styleResources (and will take them over directly if included!)
Blazing fast:tm:

Warning

Do not import actual styles. Use this module only to import variables, mixins, functions (et cetera) as they won't exist in the actual build. Importing actual styles will include them in every component and will also make your build/HMR magnitudes slower. Do not do this!

Setup

If not already present, add the dependencies you need for SASS/LESS/Stylus (depending on your needs)
- SASS: yarn add sass-loader sass
- LESS: yarn add less-loader less
- Stylus: yarn add stylus-loader stylus
Add @nuxtjs/style-resources dependency using yarn or npm to your project (yarn add -D @nuxtjs/style-resources)
Add @nuxtjs/style-resources to modules section of nuxt.config.ts:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: [
    '@nuxtjs/style-resources',
  ],

  styleResources: {
   // your settings here
   sass: [],
   scss: [],
   less: [],
   stylus: [],
   hoistUseStatements: true  // Hoists the "@use" imports. Applies only to "sass", "scss" and "less". Default: false.
  }
})

Examples

LESS Example

nuxt.config.ts:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  css: ['~assets/global.less'],
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/style-resources'],
  styleResources: {
    less: './assets/vars/*.less'
  }
})

assets/global.less

h1 {
  color: @green;
}

assets/vars/variables.less

@gray: #333;

assets/vars/more_variables.less

@green: #00ff00;

pages/index.vue

<template>
  <div>
    <!-- This h1 will be green -->
    <h1>Test</h1>
    <test/>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import Test from '~/components/Test'

export default {
  components: { Test }
}
</script>

components/Test.vue

<template>
  <div class="ymca">
    Test
  </div>
</template>

<style lang="less">
  .ymca {
    color: @gray; // will be resolved to #333
  }
</style>

SCSS Example

nuxt.config.ts:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['@nuxtjs/style-resources'],
  styleResources: {
    scss: [
      './assets/vars/*.scss',
      './assets/abstracts/_mixins.scss' // use underscore "_" & also file extension ".scss"
      ]
  }
})

Instead of './assets/abstracts/_mixins.scss' you can use also '~assets/abstracts/_mixins.scss'

assets/vars/_colors.scss

$gray: #333;

assets/abstracts/_mixins.scss

@mixin center() {
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  transform: translate3d(-50%, -50%, 0);
}

components/Test.vue

<template>
  <div class="ymca">
    Test
  </div>
</template>

<style lang="scss">
  .ymca {
    @include center; // will be resolved as position:absolute....
    color: $gray; // will be resolved to #333
  }
</style>
