less-plugin-variables-export

Adds output of all (not only top-level) variables to a JSON file

Install plugin

npm install --save-dev less-plugin-variables-export

Command line usage (lessc)

lessc --variables-export <input.less> <output.css>

Variables will be stored in the <input.json> file.

It should simplify the output when using Semantic UI library.

		})
	]
});
