Ruby Sass ("sass" gem) will be end-of-life March 26th 2019 - Consider switching to "sassc-rails" or "sassc" about foundation-rails HOT 10 CLOSED

Just to follow up, foundation-rails should be updated to depend on either sassc-rails or sass-rails. The difference is that the latter is just a thin wrapper around the former with template generation capability. From my understanding sass-rails will stick around to support that case and to be maintained within the Rails organization.

@jkimmeyer keep in mind ActiveAdmin may not be changing to sassc after all because it may not be necessary. The PR for that has updated info in comparison to the issue submitted. activeadmin/activeadmin#5504 (comment)

@jkimmeyer @javierjulio Do you guys know if anyone is still maintaining this repo? Otherwise I'm going to fork it, switch the dependency to sassc and push a new version to RubyGems. Lemme know!

from foundation-rails.

Agreed, it would be nice to get an update on this issue, especially since PR #291 exists for it.

It appears that this gem is only receiving Foundation version updates, which are definitely welcome (thank you, maintainers ❤️ ), but it would be nice if some of these other issues could get a bit of attention as well.

@pmichaeljones no need to do that dependency change: rails/sass-rails#424

@javierjulio I'm a bit confused.

This repo is depending on sass spec.add_dependency "sass", [">= 3.3.0"]

The sass-rails gem is now a wrapper for sassc-rails gem, which is great, but if this repo is depending directly on the sass gem, then doesn't that still mean it's going to depend on an EOL library?

from foundation-rails.

Ah sorry. In that case it will have to update. I wonder though if this should just rely on sass-rails instead since this is a Rails asset gem.

from foundation-rails.

Relying on sass-rails, which is now just sassc-rails makes sense. Either way, our company site is still on Foundation 5 and doesn't plan on upgrading to 6, so I might just make a new gem for this issue.

Any reason PR isn't accepted on this open issue?

Post-install message from sass:
