Imposible compile 2 scss files with a same name but in different location

[FDiskas]

laravel-mix version "0.5.16"

It works with javascript but not with scss. Works if I rename app.scss to something like app2.scss

const { mix } = require('laravel-mix');

mix
  .js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
  .js('Modules/Admin/Resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/modules/admin/js')

  .extract(['jquery', 'vue', 'lodash'])

  .sass('Modules/Admin/Resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/modules/admin/css')
  .sass('resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/css');

Are you using your own webback.config.js or the one in node_modules/laravel-mix/setup? Because it should've been fixed here: be433ff

[FDiskas]

Nothing else was changed.

In node_modules directory I see this function like so:

if (Mix.cssPreprocessor) {
    Mix[Mix.cssPreprocessor].forEach(toCompile => {
        let extractPlugin = new plugins.ExtractTextPlugin(
            Mix.cssOutput(toCompile)
        );

        module.exports.module.rules.push({
            test: new RegExp(toCompile.src.fileWithDir.replace(/\\/g, '\\\\') + '$'),
            loader: extractPlugin.extract({
                fallbackLoader: 'style-loader',
                loader: [
                    'css-loader',
                    'postcss-loader',
                    'resolve-url-loader',
                    (Mix.cssPreprocessor == 'sass') ? 'sass-loader?sourceMap&precision=8' : 'less-loader'
                ]
            })
        });

        module.exports.plugins = (module.exports.plugins || []).concat(extractPlugin);
    });
}

Yeah later it got changed, but it should still work the same.

I can't seem to reproduce it. Does it also happen on a fresh install? Do you get any error output or does it fail silently?

[FDiskas]

📝 It crashes with npm error with no clear error message.
And yes its fresh install.

Hmm, looks similiar to this one: #165 (comment). I'm not sure what's going on either.

[edjeavons]

It looks like toCompile.src.fileWithDir only contains the file's immediate parent directory, not it's full path. So if you have something like the following, the files will clash as "sass/app.scss" (this is my situation).

mix
  .sass('resources/cms/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/cms/css')
  .sass('resources/frontend/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/css');

I've tried changing the code back to how it was after commit be433ff and that does fix it but based on subsequent commits I guess there was a reason for the change.

[JeffreyWay]

@edjeavons Yeah that's the issue. It uses a folder-name/file.ext regular expression to find the file. In @FDiskas's case, for both mix.sass(), the folder and file names are the same. So it compiles twice, and produces that error on the second round.

Windows Users: I could use some help testing out a fix. We'll probably need to use a full file path instead, to prevent issues like this from popping up (as rare as it may be).

If you can help, please do:

laravel new mix-testing
cd mix-testing
npm install

Next, open node_modules/laravel-mix/setup/webpack.config.js and find this section, around line 125:

test: new RegExp(toCompile.src.fileWithDir.replace(/\\/g, '\\\\') + '$'),

The toCompile.src property contains all the path segments for your mix.sass request. We might be able to swap it out with:

test: new RegExp(toCompile.src.path.replace(/\\/g, '\\\\') + '$'),

Can you test that out (npm run dev), or try a couple variants, if it doesn't work? Use this as your webpack.mix.js file, and create dummy src files to match.

var mix = require('laravel-mix');

mix.sass('Modules/Admin/Resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/modules/admin/css')
   .sass('resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/css');

You'll know it works if you see both public/css/app.css and public/modules/admin/css/app.css.

Hi Jeffrey,

I did all you wanted and both files were generated...

[QWp6t]

Worked fine on my end as well.

[JeffreyWay]

Thanks!
