Creating new Themes with Foundation and SCSS
Adding Foundation to layout.html
Base Styles
Foundation-based themes must include the Foundation base stylesheets, ahead of any Sahana style sheets:
- static/themes/foundation/normalize.css
- static/themes/THEME/foundation/foundation.css
- static/themes/THEME/foundation/foundation.rtl.css
Note that only one of foundation.css or foundation.rtl.css is loaded, depending on the writing direction for the current UI language (Left-To-Right or Right-To-Left).
The sequence to include Foundation base styles is encoded in a view template views/foundation.css.html, so it can easily be added to layout.html:
...
{{for sheet in s3.external_stylesheets:}}
<link href="{{=sheet}}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" />
{{pass}}
{{include "foundation.css.html"}} <--- Foundation base styles are loaded here
{{for sheet in s3.stylesheets:}}
<link href="/{{=appname}}/static/styles/{{=sheet}}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" charset="utf-8" />
{{pass}}
{{if s3.debug:}}{{=s3base.s3_include_debug_css()}}{{else:}}
{{# Built by /static/scripts/tools/build.sahana.py }}
<link href="/{{=appname}}/static/themes/{{=theme}}/eden.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
{{pass}}
...
Scripts
Additionally, Foundation requires loading and initialization of some scripts at the end of the <body>. The corresponding sequence is also encoded in a view template views/foundation.js.html, so it can easily be added to layout.html:
...
{{include "foundation.js.html"}} <--- this loads and initializes Foundation scripts
</body>
</html>
Adding Theme Styles to css.cfg
The SCSS-built theme.css style sheet is included at the end of css.cfg:
... ../themes/THEME/theme.css #../themes/THEME/style.css # Final line required for parsing
It can be followed by an optional THEME/style.css to add CSS for template-specific elements as well as final overrides. The style.css style sheet is not built from SCSS, so it can be edited directly.
