gulp: PostCSS failing - postcss version higher than version of postcss-import


Im trying to transform my css with PostCss using Gulp.

When I add the cssnext plugin to PostCss I get the following error:

Unknown error from PostCSS plugin. Your current PostCSS version is 6.0.19, but postcss-import uses 4.1.16. Perhaps this is the source of the error below.

This is my gulpfile.js:

const gulp = require('gulp');
const postcss = require('gulp-postcss');
const concat = require('gulp-concat');

gulp.task('styles', function() {

    const postCssPlugins = [
        require('cssnext')()
    ];

    gulp.src('src/css/*.css')
        .pipe(postcss(postCssPlugins))
        .pipe(concat('style.css'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('.'));
});

Full stack trace:

events.js:183
  throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

As far as I know, the postcss-import package is a dependency of cssnext. So what should I do?


Solution

  • I found the answer:

    According to the website of cssnext, the package cssnext (which I used) is dead. The new package to use with PostCSS is postcss-cssnext:

    const postCssPlugins = [
        require('postcss-cssnext')()
    ];
