+1, I think we already discussed this some time ago but maybe it was only the two of us On Tue, Mar 3, 2015 at 4:17 PM, Guillaume "Louis-Marie" Delhumeau <[email protected]> wrote:
Some news.
Less4j 1.9.0 has been released recently and fixes the blocker points we had before.
At first, I wanted to add an option to be able to chose which version we want to use in XWiki: the official lessjs or the java port less4j.
But I have changed my mind since lessjs have a lot of limitations that less4j does not:
- it only handle files, so when I want to include a template (from a skin document for example), I have to create a temporary directory and to put a copy of this template there. It is not clean and complicated to maintain [1]. - it has some bugs that less4j does not [2]. - we are currently blocked to the version 1.7.x because recent versions of lessjs does not work with Rhino [3].
On the other hand, using Less4j is really simple and faster.
So I update the proposal and I propose now to only use Less4j and get rid of the lessjs/rhino solution.
Here is my +1
Thanks, Guillaume
