Rule idea: variable-name-space-after

[bjankord]

This rule idea comes from scss-lint's Space After Variable Name rule

From the scss-lint docs:

Variables should be formatted with no space between the name and the colon.

Bad: space before colon

$my-var : 0;

Good

$my-var: 0;

Thanks, definitely a must.

In the meantime, stylelint's declaration-colon-space-before and other declaration-colon- rules could help a bit, with variables declared inside rulesets.

In the meantime, stylelint's declaration-colon-space-before and other declaration-colon-* rules could help a bit, with variables declared inside rulesets.

It's interesting that declaration-colon-space-before only ignores unnested dollar variables at the moment. You could argue that it is should ignore them all, and that it is an oversight that it doesn't already. Either way, I doubt we'll change the behaviour until you guys have:

• dollar-variable-colon-space-after
• dollar-variable-colon-space-before

Which would check the spaces around dollar variable colons, whether nested or not. As, as you said, it's useful at the moment :)
