sbt-less's Issues

Slightly complex setup question

Hi
I have a Lift module - FoBo (its a generic front end toolkit module) that users your sbt-less to compile some css resources and it works great but the setup is not optimal.
Normal usage of this FoBo Lift module is to include it as a library dependency in the user projects build.sbt and so it potential dose not require the user to have direct access to the modules source code (although this is the only current way as it is not published to any public repository yet).

Ultimately it would be great to let the user rule there own variables.less file in there own target project and reference the builder .less /@include files available as resources from within the FoBo module (.jar).

Wile trying to manage this setup I have concluded that moving the whole less setup from the module and overriding the target .css file that comes from the FoBo module is not problem. But when trying to externalise the builder .less/ @include files into the fobo jar and only rule the variables.less within the user project I have not had any success.
Do you see any way to accomplish this setup ?

best regards
