-variable declarations.comment-empty-line-before
: Specify an empty line before comments.
Shared-line comments are comments which are located after a node and on the same line as a node.
a {
/* regular comment */
color: pink; /* shared-line comment */
}
Shared-line comments are always ignored in all “empty lines before” options. The plugin always looks “through” these comments. For example:
{
"declaration-empty-line-before": [true, {
except: "after-declaration"
}]
}
Technically there is a comment before bottom
. But it's a shared line comment, so plugin looks before this comment and sees top
:
a {
--prop: pink;
top: 5px; /* shared-line comment */
bottom: 15px;
}
For “order” options comments that are before node and on a separate line linked to that node. Shared-line comments are also linked to that node.
a {
top: 5px; /* shared-line comment belongs to `top` */
/* comment belongs to `bottom` */
/* comment belongs to `bottom` */
bottom: 15px; /* shared-line comment belongs to `bottom` */
}
If you have been using predefined configs, you can look at migrated predefined configs.
sort-order
was split into order
and properties-order
.
properties-order
now uses an array of objects for grouping.
