Less middleware for Koa
$ npm install koa-lessvar less = require('koa-less');
var serve = require('koa-static');
var koa = require('koa');
var app = koa();
app.use(less('./public'));
app.use(serve('./public'));
app.listen(3000);See the less middleware document.
Example of use:
var path=require('path');
app.use(require('koa-less')('/my/less/source/path', {
dest: path.join(__dirname, 'public')
}));Make sure you're declaring less-middleware before your static middleware, if you're using the same directory, e.g. (with koa-static):
var lessMiddleware = require('koa-less');
var app = koa();
app.use(lessMiddleware(__dirname + '/public'));
app.use(require('koa-static')(__dirname + '/public'));If you are hosting your app on IIS you will have to modify your web.config file in order to allow NodeJS to serve your CSS static files. IIS will cache your CSS files, bypassing NodeJS static file serving, which in turn does not allow the middleware to recompile your LESS files.
