output_style (str) – an optional coding style of the compiled result. choose one of:
nested(default),expanded,compact,compressed
But there are no differences between nested, expanded, compact output_style of sass.compile. I was puzzled over this parameter.
>>> import sass
>>> scss_str = """nav {
... ul {
... margin: 0;
... padding: 0;
... list-style: none;
... }
...
... li { display: inline-block; }
...
... a {
... display: block;
... padding: 6px 12px;
... text-decoration: none;
... }
... }"""
>>> nested = sass.compile(string=scss_str, output_style="nested")
>>> expanded = sass.compile(string=scss_str, output_style="expanded")
>>> compact = sass.compile(string=scss_str, output_style="compact")
>>> compressed = sass.compile(string=scss_str, output_style="compressed")
>>> nested == expanded
True
>>> nested == compact
True
>>> nested == compressed
False
>>>
Thanks.
