Dart-sass-embedded deprecated; no longer works with Homebrew?

will · June 12, 2023, 6:43pm

On May 15, 2023, GitHub - sass/dart-sass-embedded: A wrapper for Dart Sass that implements the compiler side of the Embedded Sass protocol was archived and deprecated:

This is no longer the repository for Embedded Dart Sass. The embedded compiler has been merged into the primary Dart Sass repository, and further releases will be included as part of Dart Sass itself. The embedded compiler can be accessed by running sass --embedded .

brew install sass/sass/dart-sass-embedded seems to no longer install a binary to PATH, and I now see this error when running Hugo:

❯ hugo server -D
Start building sites … 
hugo v0.113.0+extended darwin/amd64 BuildDate=unknown
Built in 152 ms
Error: error building site: TOCSS-DART: failed to transform "css/paige/bootstrap/370ad5bdcb602baa80412d8e9cd6e25f3b158a68-paige.scss" (text/x-scss). You need dart-sass-embedded in your system $PATH.: this feature is not available in your current Hugo version, see https://goo.gl/YMrWcn for more information

What’s the current guidance for using Sass?

There’s a long story here (with a conclusion coming shortly) which someone else may tell, but I get pretty annoyed reading the above about them retiring the old brew when they well knew that it would take the upstream libraries (e.g. Hugo) to upgrade their Dart Sass integration. I will open an issue somewhere and shout.

Yeah, I’m glad we’ve got control of it with choco, scoop, and snap. Those packages aren’t going anywhere any time soon.

Please slow down and coordinate the move from dart-sass-embedded

I apologise in advance if I'm not hitting the right target audience here, but ..…. I maintain [godartsass](https://github.com/bep/godartsass) and [hugo](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo), both use Dart Sass Embedded. I am in the process of upgrade these to the new protocol wire format, but you need to give upstream maintainers some time (this is not my day job) to do the work and testing needed -- also considering that there seem to be some critical issues (e.g. #2004) with this new version. This issue mostly comes from the fact that you seem to have retired the old `dart-sass-embedded` Homebrew binary, which creates more noise than I appreciate: https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/dart-sass-embedded-deprecated-no-longer-works-with-homebrew/44775

To answer the initial Q. If @jmooring is giving me the thumbs up re. the Snap situation, I’m releasing Hugo 0.114.0 tomorrow, which supports both old and new Dart Sass.

jmooring · June 12, 2023, 7:29pm

I’m wrestling with something this morning, related to the Snap, so please hold off.

bep · June 12, 2023, 7:31pm

Oh, Snap … Probably just as well, there’s a few more things that probably should get in there.

jmooring · June 12, 2023, 7:53pm

OK, tested snap from edge channel at 254c2b32:

Works fine, obviously still using last available version of dart-sass-embedded (embedded in the snap itself).

The “wrestling” was/is with a local (snap) build environment that is borked, completely unrelated to recent changes.

Appending @1.62.1 to the package name for Homebrew does indeed work for now:

github.com/willfaught/paige

Module doesn't seem to install/work based on instructions

I tried to move an exiting site to the theme and hit issues, so I started from s…cratch using the exact directions in the README. This happened with both Hugo from homebrew and the universal binary downloaded manually from the website. Both are v0.113 extended. Current output of the version downloaded from Hugo's GitHub: ``` $ hugo version hugo v0.113.0-085c1b3d614e23d218ebf9daad909deaa2390c9a+extended darwin/amd64 BuildDate=2023-06-05T15:04:51Z VendorInfo=gohugoio ``` When I run `hugo server -D` I get the following errors: ``` WARN 2023/06/10 20:33:03 found no layout file for "html" for kind "page": You should create a template file which matches Hugo Layouts Lookup Rules for this combination. WARN 2023/06/10 20:33:03 found no layout file for "html" for kind "taxonomy": You should create a template file which matches Hugo Layouts Lookup Rules for this combination. WARN 2023/06/10 20:33:03 found no layout file for "html" for kind "taxonomy": You should create a template file which matches Hugo Layouts Lookup Rules for this combination. WARN 2023/06/10 20:33:03 found no layout file for "html" for kind "home": You should create a template file which matches Hugo Layouts Lookup Rules for this combination. ``` And I get a 404 when trying to access the site... because it's not generating anything. For a normal theme, this would mean it's missing the files in the `layouts/` directory for all of those things. I assume this is the same for a module, but I'm not sure where to look at why its not there. If I run `hugo mod vendor` no files are placed in the `_vendor` directory. Other than what is created by Hugo, I just have the example markdown file from the instructions and my `config.toml` reads: ``` [[module.imports]] path = "github.com/willfaught/paige" ``` My `go.mod` file: ``` module github.com/mmessmore/messmore.org go 1.20 require github.com/willfaught/paige v0.62.1 // indirect ``` And `go.sum`: ``` github.com/willfaught/paige v0.62.1 h1:QYK5UKRo7CysyNJ/kBtbLyILx6RqEScdr21kbiVf4Ss= github.com/willfaught/paige v0.62.1/go.mod h1:0Nt8ifl7UVYQIBaMtpZmg+BrQHHzFNqKcrBoA2Oo4/E= ``` I think there's an issue since the instructions don't work or at least leave out where to go next. I've never used the new Hugo modules before, and I feel pretty stupid for being at a complete loss at how to troubleshoot this to even provide more information. I have `go version go1.20.5 darwin/amd64` and use go with modules all the time. But this module doesn't go into my go mod files. There is no error about failing to get the module and the hash is showing up in `go.sum`. I'm baffled. If this is not truly an issue, but user error, I apologize.
