Some SCSS files refer to invalid path (a11y)

[shlomiassaf]

In 5cf7d175d66120b0e8262bef561f230cb6e31d11 several components got a11y support using a new SCSS resource.

The import is @import '../a11y/_a11y';
Which looks for the file in material/src/lib/a11y/_a11y

a11y is in core

The file exists in material/src/lib/core/a11y/_a11y

I don't know how the build passed but it's should be fixed

@import '../core/a11y/_a11y';

The files:
src/lib/button/button.scss
src/lib/card/card.scss
src/lib/dialog/dialog-container.scss
src/lib/menu/menu.scss
src/lib/select/select.scss
src/lib/sidenav/sidenav.scss
src/lib/slide-toggle/slide-toggle.scss
src/lib/snack-bar/snack-bar-container.scss
src/lib/tooltip/tooltip.scss

@crisbeto can it be release as alpha 11-3 instead of waiting for 12?

This isn't up to me to decide, but I'll definitely look into why it's breaking. It worked when I was testing out the new fixes. How are you getting the error?

[shlomiassaf]

It doesn't break on the build probably because some paths were includes as roots (in the sass build) so it aligns, somehow...

But it's not right, the path is clearly wrong.

We have a special build process where we use the SCSS files in the NPM package to rebuild the SCSS for each component we opt-in to do so and it will replace the CSS in the component with our new build.
It allows customising the components by pre setting some SCSS $vars

we do it via a webpack loader.

[crisbeto]

Alright, I can't reproduce it just by running the build locally, but can you try to replace all of these:

@import '../a11y/_a11y';

With this:

@import '../a11y/a11y';

[shlomiassaf]

It won't help (tried, didn't work), i'm running a different build... but my process is not that relevant.

The relative path is not valid, if you follow it there's no file at the end... all other files does use core as part of the path.

It works because some configuration in the build made this path resolvable...

[crisbeto]

I mean if you could go into the node_modules/@angular/material, change the path and see if that helps with compilation.

[shlomiassaf]

yes, did that, didn't help... the file is not there.

[shlomiassaf]

When I add core it works

[crisbeto]

Oh, I see. Yeah no idea how that ended up compiling. I'll put in a PR.

[shlomiassaf]

It's actually interesting and error prone, this will probably repeat.
