Compiling scss files using gulp-sass npm module

Question

I am using gulp-sass module to compile scss files to css files.

This is my gulpfile.js

'use strict';

var gulp = require('gulp');
var sass = require('gulp-sass');

gulp.task('sass', function () {
  return gulp.src('sass/*.scss')
    .pipe(sass().on('error', sass.logError))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('css'));
});

I have two files in my sass folder:

sass
|--- _test.scss
|--- demo.scss

The plugin compiles demo.scss file but not _test.scss , I tried with same content as well.

Is there something with the naming convention or I need to change my gulpfile.js.

Answer 1

You need to change _test.scss to test.scss .

Node sass ignores _filenames . Usually we use _ with files names which are going to be imported in the scss files.
