var syntax = require('postcss-syntax')({
// Enable support for HTML (default: true) See: https://github.com/gucong3000/postcss-html
htmlInMd: true,
// syntax for parse scss (non-required options)
scss: require('postcss-scss'),
// syntax for parse less (non-required options)
less: require('postcss-less'),
// syntax for parse css blocks (non-required options)
css: require('postcss-safe-parser'),
});
var autoprefixer = require('autoprefixer');
postcss([ autoprefixer ]).process(source, { syntax: syntax }).then(function (result) {
// An alias for the result.css property. Use it with syntaxes that generate non-CSS output.
result.content
});input:
# title
