Node.js module usage

CSScomb can be used in Node.js projects: inside a plugin or as a dev tool.

Workflow can look like this:

// Require:
var Comb = require('csscomb');
var config = require('path/to/config');

// Configure:
var comb = new Comb(config);

// Use:
comb.processPath('style.css');

new Comb(config)

Create instance's prototype.

Parameters:

{String|Object} config — config that should be used after creating instance. Should be JSON or one of predefined config's name. Optional.

Example: Create CSScomb instance and configure it using predefined yandex sort order

var comb = new Comb('yandex');

// This is shortcut for:
var comb = new Comb();
var config = Comb.getConfig('yandex');
comb.configure(config);

Example: Create CSScomb instance and configure it using config object

var config = require('path/to/config');
var comb = new Comb(config);

// This is shortcut for:
var comb = new Comb();
comb.configure(config);
